Donation Acception, sort of a check - 01-10-2007, 10:47 PM

I don't know what you guys think, but maybe a delayed donation feature would be a nice one. That way, when a person donate's to you, you actually have to accept it, like with checks, someone gives you a check, you have to cash it. I think it would be cool if we could have that here, in the form of donations.

For example.
Present:
weblord donates 500 ddPoints to artoonie.
artoonie was offline.
Digital.X walks up to artoonie, and steals 499.9 ddPoints.
artoonie just got screwed over, and storms off all mad.

With this idea:
weblord donates 500 ddPoints to artoonie.
artoonie was offline.
No ddPoints were added to artoonie's total yet.
artoonie comes online
artoonie is notified, via a prompt, that the ddPoints have been added to his total.
This is when the ddPoints are transfered from weblord to artoonie.
He clicks ok and then walks off to deposits them in the bank, during which, Digital.X walks up, hits him on the head, and takes the ddPoints.

This way, I still win, but it gives people a bit of a chance.
Over all I think it is an okay idea, especially since I walk away with a win either way xD It will help make it a little bit easier for people to get the ddPoints they need.

I like the idea thanks Digital.X for starting this thread, let's see how many votes we can come up with and also post the necessary official mod to deploy this function.

I totally agree. Users should accept donations when they come online. This way they get their points. No more risks

I totally agree with this idea
it is good to have more security over ddpoints.
but what happends if the someone steals the points? can the admin( or someone) find him and punish him and return the points?


And also why there is road for thiefs to run out

Exclamation Donations straight to bank...? - 01-18-2007, 04:11 PM

Wouldn't it be easier if the donations went straight to bank, that way there is nothing that could go wrong...?

Stealing donations even sounds so wrong... Like someone stealing from the war orphans fund or from the world food programme.


So, I think donations should go straight to bank. Thieves would still have their chances with other members' hard earned money.
