[MasterUser]

I can't withdrawn 10 coins from vault while I have 10 coins in Vault. System tells me that "You may only withdraw a maximum of 10 Activity Coin."

Also how to automatically collect daily interest? In guide we have:
"

Interest​

Calculated on your Bank balance up to your cap. Paid into the Vault. Collection can be automatic or manual depending on settings.
"

You'll probably be able to withdraw 9. It's a floating-point precision and rounding issue.
Basically you don't have 10 coins but probably something like 9.995 coins, so the UI rounds it to 10, but when you try to withdraw 10 you don't have enough and it fails.

Yesterday I received interest. Today my account was emptied and the interest gone. I just filled it again, but I lost one day interest + that I don't receive interest today.

Same. Probably because they pushed a new system, since now there is the vault, which I didn't have the last time I checked.

Ok, so my post yesterday about payouts being wrong might have been wrong. I think.... maybe because the interest collected goes to vault (which does not show on the main bank page), I only saw the coins I had EARNED from posts, and wrongly assumed those were my interest. Today I pulled them and saw my total didnt go up from 11, and that was wrong, so I poked around and found the interest in vault, along with what I assume was yesterdays interest.

So I think since the vault is a thing, and it forces your interest there for some reason, the vault balance should show on the main bank screen. Either in the right "wallet" sidebar, or somewhere else where it is easy to notice. Although... I would probably rather your balance just go to your wallet. I dont see the point of a vault, so I'm not sure why I would rather it go there.

i agree on adding a balance from the vault on the main page, i wont be doing it doing as today i set aside for myself not to code today.

I demand it now! But... I guess tomorrow will be fine. Especially since I figured out the vault today and made sure to empty it.

Same problem. I earned 4 coins. Vault showed 4 coins. It only let me withdraw 0.04 coins. The vault balance went to zero, my coin balance remained zero.

Edit: I might have hallucinated a little... When I went back to the vault later it had 4 coins.

Bank & Vault System Updates​

I have implemented several improvements to the Shop's Bank system to fix the withdrawal issues and improve usability:

• Vault Balance Display: The Vault balance is now displayed on its own line directly underneath the main currency balance, making it much easier to find & read.
• Whole Number Transactions: Deposits and withdrawals are now restricted to whole numbers only. We've removed decimal inputs to prevent precision errors and simplify the banking process.
• Withdrawal Limit Fixed: Fixed the "rounding error" bug that prevented users from withdrawing their exact full balance (e.g., seeing "10" but being told you only have "9.99"). The system now properly rounds the check and ensures you can withdraw your entire balance down to 0.

These changes should resolve the "Cannot withdraw 10 coins" error.

So... can i just "fire and forget" after depositing points or i have to collect interest manually everyday?

u have to sign in daily to collect the interest, u have to go to the bank and click the button or you dont get the interest. it pops up every 24 hours and doesnt stack up. so if you are 1 hour late it just resets the time that you can collect tomorrow. if that makes sense

Auto collect was enabled many months ago but it was bugged.

The admin was working on a new script to enable it again but does not like the idea.

As many would never comment or contribute just auto collect interest everyday.

While it might be a change for the better, just remember that you have forced my hand to interact and you are unlikely to appreciate a lot of what I have to say to you.

A thousand coins is a bit of a slap in the face… I saw that you were working on a auto collection method, how long must we wait for that? I think instead of using post count as a metric exclusively, account age should have a stronger effect on the limit to collect interest. Those that don’t want to participate are being unfairly punished by relying upon post count alone.

As much as I hate spam… it’s not going to get better with this plan.

There was a time that I had a lot of posts and I decided that I was just going to lurk after one of your purges… now I’m forced to spew nonsense just to raise post count.

I get it, I dont like it either. But... you have to think about the purpose of the entire thing. Its a gadget designed to help drive interaction. Forums like this thrive on content. New content, such as games, but also discussion. So converting lurkers into posters helps keep them active and growing. If he just disables that and lets you earn coins without some sort of benefit to the content itself, then it kinda makes it pointless. And sadly (because I am in the "would rather lurk" boat), lurking does not add much benefit for the site, except occasionally lurkers might advertise/share the site with others. But probably not as likely with this site as most.

If you can think of things you wouldnt mind doing that would bring benefit to the site, you could offer those as suggestions for earning coins. But honestly, other than submitting new games (or other content), or increasing discussion, I don't think there is a whole lot.

Meh, you can't fake a community and engagement. Eff 95 has 500x the engagement and size of this place without a gimmicky coin system. All it does is flood the 2 or 3 posts that are designed to farm coins while the actual game threads are barren of anything. There are 160,000 members on this site now, and new updates for major games have like barely 2 pages of comments.

 

[Darkrift411]

Meh, engagement isn’t everything. Sometimes people don’t want to bring things up to the whole group, we just sit at the back of the class passing notes.

And... as I said, I get it, but, what good do you think a lurker does in a site like this? You are not likely to brag about lewdcorner while sitting down with your family for dinner, or share it to coworkers. The amount of people you can possibly advertise the site to is rather low. You are using bandwidth (viewing threads, images, etc) but not providing anything. If you are donating to the site, you are helping in that way, but if you were I don't think you would care as much about the activity points since you would have donation points. Some sites use ads, but ads on adult sites suck so I see why they avoid that.

So the people that are helping keep this site running are the ones who are donating, or the ones who are helping provide content. That content brings in others who will hopefully donate or add more content. No offense (remember, I said I would prefer to lurk most of the time myself, which you can confirm by my post count. 200 in 3 years, and I was an admin here for months, so I kinda had to post more back then, otherwise my post count would probably be around 25) but lurkers don't keep sites like this alive. So if nothing else, don't get as annoyed that they are trying to get what they can (donations or content) from others.

Im not talking shit or putting you down. Again, Im not a donator and I don't really post anything useful either, so I am in the same boat. The difference is that I understand his reasoning and don't get bothered by it.

It's simple lurkers contribute nothing to a forum that relies on member engagement just like as written above.

If the admin simply gave everyone an easy way there would be no discussions.

As for spam I despise it as it's just another easy way for lurkers to game the forum.

Anyhow you can't change human behavior and laziness.

objection.
almost no discussion.

A bank question: is there any advantage to move our activity coins to the vault?

No advantage so far, besides the possibility to hide your amount of AC.

You're also not contributing by commenting nothing new or of substance in the first place.
What is Spam and what is not is decided by the one who reads it.
Not writing a comment where one isn't needed isn't laziness. It's efficient.

The only messages i have ever written on this forum, where additive IMO.
But what do you expect, there is not much to comment on, outside of writing 'nice game' or 'this is broken fix'. But if someone else already said that, there is no reason why someone else should comment it again.

Posting in the forum itself is just revealing identifying information on yourself slowly over time. No thank you from me.
Then you just have posting Loli and Shota AI. Which could get you into trouble eventually if laws change where you live.

It's just not worth it at all.

So, all we need now is someone to set up a rival bank, offering slightly more interest and I can start getting the excel spreadsheets out

Thanks for the updates, it's always nice to get a bit of interest.
