discussion How long did it take you to earn Members+ or VIP?

[retcon123]

Hi All, I was just wondering if it takes a long time to get the credits and how long it's taken everyone? I am using this post both to get everyone's experience and the time it's taken, but also using it as a way of engaging and building them up.

don't think it should take that long to get 500 coins. with the way they are currently being given and with people liking every comment then maybe a couple hours of grinding

If the points system stays the same (and it sounds like Kavinsky is still working on it), it's probably going end up taking me a month or more to accumulate the 500 LC points.

Post a Post: Earn 1 credit: I doubt I end up averaging more than 1 post a day.
Start a Thread: Get 3 credits: I don't see me ever starting any threads.
Daily Login: Receive 2 credits: I've got the log in set to "stay logged in", I doubt that counts as a "daily log in".
React to Content: Gain 0.5 credit: I can do that, that's easy, but spamming "likes" doesn't work so...
Receive Reactions: Earn 0.5 credit: This is probably where the majority of points are going to come from... hopefully.
Upload an Avatar: Secure 5 credits: I will get around to this, but it's only a one-time thing, so only good for 5 points.
Visit LC: Acquire 3 credits: I can do this every day, so that's an easy 3 points.

So doing a little back of the napkin math and I get: 1 a day for a post, lets say 2 a day for liking posts, if I'm lucky I can get 5 a day for people liking my posts, and lastly 3 points for my daily check in on the site for a grand total of 11 points a day (which I'm going to round down to 10 in case I miss a day) and that ends up being 50 days to get the 500 points.

I understand why the point system has been implemented and agree with whatever needs to be done to protect the site, it's just a disappointment that we're being forced to jump through these hoops because of a few bad actors.

Oh well, it is what it is, see ya'll tomorrow.

Edit: Never mind, somehow I keep getting 3 points for someone reacting to my posts instead of the 0.5 as noted above, so maybe this won't take that long after all.

I've been at it for an hour or two now, inching toward the finish line.

How does the visit or logging in points work. Some people stay logged in others dont.

I can't believe I just saw this, I didn't see the post about the LC Coins since I didn't use the forum at all until recently.

 

[Igor455]

Sandbox on the site. Never liked sandboxes

 

[snow123789]

hopefully not.
