Doesn't anyone think that extra spud bucks should be given for pictures? Like...3 per picture. 5 per video? It seems like we should be rewarded with the extra effort put into taking the picture, downloading it to the computer, resizing it, and finally putting it on the forum. I don't even want to know what posting a video on here is like. I'll let theLesser deal with that.

Post whoring? (kinda looks like who-ring)

I don't see anyone post whoring.


Trust me it happens.

In any case, spudbux are completely worthless - if that weren't the case, I would have quit my job a long time ago ;)

Post whoring.
Making useless posts just to raise your post count (or spud bux)

I don't know if you are being sarcastic there, but your double post is a very fine example of post whoring.

Posts like this are generally more preferred then those one-lined posts which do not contain much information.

How about you lose spud bux for wasting band width with dumb threads and or posts? :roll:

50 spud bux per infraction?? New "Dunce cap" avatar for repeat offenders??

Lots of extra work for the mods though. Sorry guys. :(

Or just get rid of them all together.

Well since this has been debated before, there's no since in letting this get 3 pages long. If anyone wants to point out prior discussions PM me the link and I will add it here for information purposes.
