New eStore Installed

[Fuzz]

Rachel, I could be going on a limb here but I 'think' I.E. won't interpret grey, but it will interpret 'gray'... try that and see if it works. I'm not 100% sure, if not, then I'll see what else I can do.

Awall - thanks for sharing your observations. I'll code a default variable so users with no money in the bank don't get that weird 1969 year... but hey, it was a good year. haha. Also, we have taking down several items that could have been abused for precaution reasons and for spam reasons.

Here is a list of options that have recently been disabled:

Change Others User Title
Change User Title Immunity
Forum Access
Deny Forum Access
Post Count +50
Colored User Title
Bump/De-Bump threads



I will add more useful items later (such as profile enhancements, sig enhancements, etc). The reason I installed this specific eStore vb hack is b/c it offers flexibility with customizing your own db fields into the formula. This way we can have endless new items... we are bounded only by our creativity to what users can purchase that will enhance the forums.

Items have to be directly related to the forums. I know the store isn't necessarily FFish, but at least we have a few things to purchase with this Gold we have had for ages! haha. I was tired the gold just sitting around w/ no purpose. I know some things in the store may seem silly, but will make-do until I install new/better ones to accompany the rest.

In responses to your edits:

Banks are a free-safe haven from theft, so theft immunity is not really necessary to buy. Again, most of these default options in the store are ridiculous.

I will put up a label for the firefox/IE issues. I'm only aware of 2 thus far (hex coding and filter glowing), but I will be sure to announce them so nobody wastes their money... and I don't know why it is 'Gold' over 'Gil'... just sounded cooler at the time.

Telegraph - I believe there is no way of telling who robs who... only in the dark dungeon of server logs! so I believe you are safe if you did hit someone hard, haha

It did ^_^

thankies much! I didn't mind paying extra to re-do it. I have too much cash anyway.

Yeah, with Firefox, her username looks grey. Or, should I say, "gray."
Silly spelling differences. IE is definitely picky about those.

Wrong. ^_^

When you go to the eStore, the last five actions regarding your profile are logged above the shopping options. That's how I know Bunny stole from me once... and, by watching times, I noticed darkViVi successfully stole from me six times in a row.

When someone steals from you, it says "Thief to Username" with the amount of gold you lost. Conversely, it says "Thief from Username" when you steal.

yay! glad it worked rachel... I hate the compatibility issues with FireFox and IE, I have to deal with them every day at work.

Thanks for correcting me on that Cesar, I didn't know it was logged. How convenient then, haha.

K. Well what happens if I just purchased an option at 12:18, but I didn't know you disabled it at 12:13???
It was the 50 post.
That and the rank didn't change. No biggie. Just wanted to waste some money after I bought the things I did want.

BUT >>> The store is rockin. Good work fellas.

There's also a link in the log box that says "History." Clicking that will show the entire history of Gold transactions for your account.


edit @ PA:
If you could do it, that means it wasn't disabled yet. I'm pretty sure he posted that list prior to actually disabling the items.

I just noticed that I am only recieving 2-4 gold for each post I make after buying Username effects for the store. I put gold in the bank also, leaving me with 0.00 before I started posting again. And, after make 2 somewhat quality posts, I only have like 6 gold. Not complaining, just letting you know.

BTW, the Username effects are cool, good choice for any potienal buyer. Also, when is the store going to be restocked? I noticed some items only having 1 quantity, or maybe even sold out. Just pondering to myself....

EDIT: Had to move this from another thread that I absent midedly posted it in. Thanks for the reminder Loco... .... keep it on the up and up... *hails banstick*

[Plastik Assassin]

Thanks for the info, Loco.
I feel like a cheater for doing that, but ah well. Eventually I'll have 10,000 posts anyways so it won't really matter.

[LocoColt04]

Fuzz, you may wish to edit your first post with the changes you've made.

Or... I can always edit it for you. Your choice, really.

[Fuzz]

Biggs - I just changed the gold per reply/thread amount, it shouldn't have been so low. Also I just did a complete refill on all items and now there will be a scheduled restock every week.

Cesar, I'll edit it right now, I'm bored ^^ After things are settled down I will post a descriptive FAQ thread with prices, %'s, rules, and other information on the new shop, like i did for the new ranks...

[LocoColt04]

If you haven't checked the corresponding thread in Shinra Corporation, you need to do so now. I won't post my findings here, as that would be... not so good.

Woho, hurray for Fuzz. But I don't like the Thief thingy. I don't want anyone taking my precious money
Gotta spare up for immunity then =D

I was just wondering; how does the gift system work?
How is the gift displayed for the one who receives it?
