the problem with the font stuff is that it might slow down the site.. thats what Admin is usually worried about.  |

It's a cute idea, however, I fear it would lead to a popularity contest, and it would soon come to be that only the popular people would have USM dollars and those that aren't so popular would have nothing.  |

I was thinking also that the USM dollars could be reset at the beginning of each month. As far as the font thing goes, it's just an idea, if not, it's just to look at how much you have a smile.  |

oooo, I like this idea. I think it needs some extra fine tuning but that is soooo cool. Hmmm, I wonder what some other ways could be to earn USM money would be??? Oh, I just thought of something. Theres a problem with your plan. People wouldnt want to reply because they would have less money for themselves. Maybe it could work the other way around and the money would just be awarded from no specific source. Maybe we could also have nominations for usmer of the month, or nicest usmer, or the usmer who did the most good deeds. After its narrowed down to a certain amount of usmers we vote on the winner. The winner could get some usm dollars. In order for someone to get nominated by an individual, that individual will have to write some sort of persuasion with examples. This is kind of a big affair so there will have to be more people that ginger and radman in charge of this. I think there should be voluteers of the people who would like the job and then we could nominate from there or something. i dont know... what do you think?  |

its and intersting idea but it could cause alot of issues with tracking them and someone giving the dollars and using them it makes me think a bit of neopoets how you can buy and sell things and earn points and such, it's more like a game... though it MIGHT just be what USM needs to liven up this place  |

Good idea......but i dont see why it would matter if only the popular people got the dollars....their the only ones who get the awards that are given out on this site.  |

I see what to die for is saying about the popularity thing but the way you have it set up, no one would really know exactly homw much money you have unless their that petty to go around and total it. How about this even. Im not sure if there is any extra work that needs to be done on the site some sort of tasks that people could get usm money for by doing those tasks. Or like donating time for it. |

Yea, personally i think that the awards are a joke sometimes and it doesnt seem at all hard to get them. I know if I got an award I wouldnt even think it was that great just because all you have to do is no somebody to get one. If the money thing ever seriously was taken into consideration then I would hope them to find a way to make money earning more challenging and honorable. |

I think in the long run it would be a lot of work tracking things.  |

hmm... i dont' know... it seems to sound like a good idea but with all the different fonts and everything it might drag the speed of the site down so much it would be horrible for those with dial-up and my massive 14.4 connection has a hard enough time lol  |
