    Buy memberships with points

    I mean, what's the point really for the levelup/point system - when you can't spend anything with them?

    If theirs something you can "buy" with points (Say, membership...) = increase posts/forum activity?

    Hmm, this seems nice, and what is it for? Would be good if you have say like 10,000 you can click a button and buy 1 month subscriber and like 30,000 for a year?

    Then that means, they would be giving away free subs for something that the forum does have right now.

    Some say it's working for them. Basically, by doing this, your killing the pay-for-sub and survey-for-sub which are some of the source of funds of this very site.

    It wouldn't be free, since you have to post to gain experience points.

    He's using a myvouchergeek nulled script attached with CPALead.

    Not at all, check http://forum.ragezone.com for me, actually - check this very thread. Their are advertisements (Google Ads) everywhere on this forums - MentaL receives a hefty sum of money :)

    This idea +1.

    It would be cool to pay for subscriptions because users are active enough to post, and get the points themselves. Then again, mods would have to watch for spam more often.

    o_0 Despite being a sub, you still retain your current rank. I had Alpha still after my sub expired.

    OnTopic: I actually agree with this idea. What are the points really for? Why not make something out of it? It would also increase Ad revenue since more people would most likely be posting. It wouldn't take away from paying for subs or doing the surveys because they are still options. After the points are taking, if you enjoyed having sub, you're not going to wait for 10k or whatever it's set at to get sub again.

    @ImAwesome: I've been here for almost 2 years, am active and have over 3k posts. I only have 12k points. Points aren't extremely easy to get, so this wouldn't take away from anything. Also, the Ad revenue generated for someone to get these "point subs" would most likely be greater than if someone payed for a sub.

    MentaL also likes to make money, that's why he sells subs and doesn't just give them away.

    You're probably not a member of the facebook group then since he gives away fair amount on there.

    OT - The point wouldn't really work if the user has access to Mental's lair though.
