The Unoffical guide to the token system

[Dark Coz]

Actually, it happened in between logs when inactive for about 36 hours. My tokens doubled. If it doubles to +70,000 on Monday, I'll have to contact Keith and ask him what's going on with the token system. I've got a hunch it's a glitch in the token system, but I could be wrong, you know.

Unless, people have been donating to you for no reason, I do not know how you got so many fucking tokens.

He'd be getting PMs if that were the case, though.

because you are a lucky person who happens to have a glitch.. and, is it on all your tokens in general, or on-hand tokens, or what?

If you can, u should rename the thread, as it is now the official token system thread as of 08:25 PM Tuesday August 8 2006 lol (Did i mention that i post in here WAY too much?)

I cannot claim it as "offical" unless a mod or admin says it is.

[Keith]

You can make it official

[3cmrgx3]

I think that makes it official..

Thank you for making this thread. Being a complete newbie I find the token system fascinating... except for the fact that once I registered I didn't get the 50 tokens that each new person gets. Has that rule changed?

About all the interest things, if anyone hasn't noticed already, it went down to 1.20 percent, and i had a slight conversation with keith about it, and he said it's there permanently, due to it giving people too many tokens (Like the really rich people.)

Wouldn't it be better off to just lower the interest rate as a person gains more tokens? e.g., start from 2% and decrease as the user gets richer? It's a silly idea but I think that would make things easier rather than make the bank useless for those who have little to no tokens at all (like me).

thats a good idea, but i think it would be too hard to program. (I know some about web page command and computer command, but i think doing that would require tons of information.

You've gotta be kidding. Alright, here's a program for you, and it's yours absolutely free!

#define TOKEN_THRESHHOLD      1000000.00
#define LOWEST_INTEREST_RATE  0.012
#define LOW_INTEREST_RATE     0.02

if (currTokens > TOKEN_THRESHHOLD) {
    interestRate = LOWEST_INTEREST_RATE;
} else {
    interestRate = LOW_INTEREST_RATE;
}
interest = currTokens * interestRate;

interest = currTokens * interestRate;

Did i mention that my knowledge is only basic UNIX ang like, immensly little QBASIC and HTML

I was thinking that that would be in either HTML or lined code (Or whatever its called, I get everything confused)

Update:

You no longer get tokens for using the Report button.

Thanks for letting us know. You really should add something in the FAQ.

Doofus, you can't do C/C++ on the intarwebz.

To clarify, here's the (okay, to be fair, it's identical) PHP script.

PHP Code:

<?php
define (TOKEN_THRESHHOLD,1000000)
define (LOWEST_INTEREST_RATE,0.012);
define (LOW_INTEREST_RATE,0.02);

// All that other crap

if ($currTokens > TOKEN_THRESHHOLD)
{
    $interestRate = LOWEST_INTEREST_RATE;
}
else
{
    $interestRate = LOW_INTEREST_RATE;
}

$interest = $currTokens * $interestRate;
echo $interest . '% interest.';
?>
