I know in the beginning it seemed like i enjoyed the popularity thing, but in the stats..is it changable? cause its somewhat missleading =\

I thought you guys said, we could use cookies to purchase stuff at the store? o-O"

That was an original possible use for cookies when CapturedWings was formed. We're exploring different options and want to hear from the valued members on what they would like to see happen to 'cookies' like a store option, auctions and the like for one-of-a-kind icon symbols and who knows...actual CCS and TRC items. As I said...exploring and discussing all ideas

the TRC & CCS thing is cool ^______^;;
i think alot of people - especially tiny little peeeps like me would really love that!

quimmy · « **Reply #182 on:** February 03 2006, 05:16 am »

I second that! An auction/shop of CCS and TRC items sounds really interesting!

Arcademan · « **Reply #183 on:** February 03 2006, 10:33 pm »

It could happen. I have extra goodies in my massive CCS collection that I can use and give away if we decide to go this route. The mods and administrators are discussing all options. Stay tuned!

Why are n00bs getting cookies?!!

Someone joins...gets 2 cookies right off the bat!!!

Someone posts a lot of pictures, they get cookies!!!

I was working on possibly doing a little auction and prize giveaway for those with cookies can cash in and get some cool stuff but since the system is being abused, I NO LONGER will do this!!!

..=\ ...so..you don't want us to easily give cookies?
one more thing, i accidentally bought cookies at the shop cause ERR IT SAYS KARMA! So I didn't know..

;; Maybe..someone can take that off. O_O

Hmm...maybe it should be made that you can only give cookies by request?
Maybe PM a mod with a valid reason as to why you wish to give someone a cookie?

Sure it's a pain in the butt, but if people feel the system is being abused, there's one way to solve it.

but so many people abuse the "give a cookie" method i mean, if there is no other choice then i guess that's all we can do.

babypigggy · « **Reply #191 on:** February 28 2006, 09:19 am »

Maybe we should encourage people to read the rules.

but the rules won't stop people from abusing the "give a cookie" method. i mean, you could have every person read the rules on this forum but it won't stop anyone from doing it again. you know what i mean? it has to be enforced, like, there has to be a consequence if the method is abused and what not.

Hack · « **Reply #193 on:** February 28 2006, 05:21 pm »

i've looked at all posts here clearly....but on one mentioned where the shop is!
or is it just me that doesn't know where it is...

Well, as the popularity of this forum rose, I've noticed quite a few freedoms have been cut off. The consequences of having a large community, I guess. More Rules = More People Abusing Them

definitely. the more people join, the more people are more likely to abuse them. plus, you're never certain that anyone will read the rules. it's not like you can sit down next to them and watch them read the rules word for word. you just have to trust that they did.

So true. I always make it a habit to read the rules. Last thing I want is to get kicked off. If only people were more considerate.

You know you're off topic. But I'll tell you, It happens to me too. When I first come on the forums, i appear unlogged in. And that's the only time i can see the shop O_O"

Maybe someone should post some reasons for cookie giving for people to read.
And if you tell some of the newer members that they're not following hte rulles, they usually think you're rude and mean or whatever.

the point i'm trying to get across about the cookies is that even with reasons on why cookies should be given, it doesn't mean people will actually obey them. you can't control what people do or what they will give cookies for. you definitely can't control the person giving a cookie from putting their cursor onto the "give a cookie" link.

maybe.. you could do it like this. you have the give a cookie link to those who reach the post limit and if they are going to give a cookie, it brings them to another page where they can send the admins (without using a PM, maybe like a post!) why they want to give so and so a cookie. and the admins can approve it.

.. i don't know. does that make sense? i'm just trying to help. `=)

Miss Jenni-Maie · « **Reply #199 on:** March 01 2006, 04:28 pm »

Great idea, aishiteru! ^_^
Pretty much the same as my idea . .. just a little less of a hassle, haha.
I actually would have no problem with that. I think it certainly would help out with the cookie-abusing.
