This post should not be considered final unless otherwise stated by me
Well, those of you from 4chan may recall my original post before I made this forum. I mentioned that I'd like to use a credits system that can be exchanged for real currency for buying Nutaku gold. Of course, I couldn't do that unless they actually implemented Paypal, and now they have.
Starting in July, I will allow for credits to be withdrawn to a Paypal account. My budget for this is looking pretty good with my main website kicking it up a notch in traffic and revenue, so as of now there is not a maximum monthly withdrawal limit.
So, how do you gain credits? By being active, mostly.
Posts are worth
1 credits each +
0.001 per word, minimum 10 words to qualify
Threads are worth
2 each +
0.005 per word, minimum 30 words to qualify
Referrals are worth 25
For referrals to count and be credited to you, the referred member much reach 20 posts, at which point they become a full member. These transactions are moderated and the member will be reviewed. The most important factor in deciding if this is a valid referral will be if the account appears to be a duplicate from another member. Yes, you may invite your friends and family (if you dare) to participate in this forum and the games it is about. But, NO. You may NOT sign up your brother, sister, father, uncle or what have you as a referral if they all live with you and share a connection. Accounts signed up through a proxy are also not eligible.
How to refer?
In any thread, under the "Thread Tools" dropdown box, there will be a link to e-mail a friend. This opens a page and auto-completes the message box with a link to said thread that includes your referral ID. &referrerid=#### can be appended to most urls of this forum to award referral credit.
To start with, I am offering $1 for every 25 credits earned.
$5 minimum to withdraw. Requests only accepted in $5 increments.
I don't want to sit and process tons of $1 or less requests. I got games to play too, you know!
As of now, requests must be made via a PM to me. You must include the required information and meet any conditions as follows:
- Paypal primary e-mail address
- Amount of credits you want to exchange, along with the expected dollar amount.
- First time requests limited to $5 and must include a screenshot that shows Nutaku user name, current gold amount, and the date/time according to your PC clock.
To be eligible for additional requests at another time, another screenshot must be taken and provided to me showing the additional deposit in your Nutaku account. I don't feel like this is too much to ask when I'm offering you money for being part of a community.
More ways to earn credits can always happen in the future, but we will need to see where I sit with just this. I don't want to over-commit with too many ways to earn credits and end up with not enough income to accommodate for it.
Terms for use of credits:
- Please understand that any credit values mentioned in this post are subject to change as necessary. However, upon a withdrawal request, the amount will not change from the time the request is made to the time it is processed. I will not change your 125 credit/$5 request to anything less or more.
- Spamming will not be tolerated. Infractions may be issued if your activity appears to be nothing more than to make as many posts as possible in a short time. Infractions cost you credits, and become more costly each time.
- Money sent to you is meant to be used to purchase Nutaku gold. I ask that you please honor this request. The whole point of this is for me to help support Nutaku without needlessly spending money on myself for RNG premium draws that are likely to be garbage anyway. If it becomes clear to me that the money is not being used for this purpose, you may lose the ability to request payouts.
- If at any point it is decided that I simply cannot continue this offer, there will be a 30 day warning. All payout requests made up to and including the final day will be honored.
- These terms are subject to change as necessary
I have also installed a Raffles system. This will eventually be used to hold drawings for bonus payouts. Raffle tickets can be purchased with credits when it is available.
If you do not wish to cash out credits, that is fine. They can also be used to purchase items from the shop. More items can and will be added over time.
If anything in this post make people feel uncomfortable, or is disagreeable, then let me know. Feel free to state opinions and suggestions inside this thread.
