RedCents
What the heck is a RedCent? I don't want a single dirty red cent from you!
Too late, you might already have some. Look in your RedCent Wallet.
What are RedCents for?
To gain Level 2 access without paying. Use RedCents for Level 2 here.
What else can I do with RedCents?
Check the RedCent store! We're always adding goodies.
I'm intrigued! How do I get more of these RedCents?
Three ways:
-
Do Bone Chips quests. (Level 2 users only. Hit the Bone Chips button at the top of a thread, do a quest, turn in your chips.)
-
Receive RedCents when someone else clicks the RedCent button on your great post. (Level 1+ users, i.e. everyone can receive. Earns 15 RedCents each time.)
-
Purchase them. Cheater. (Purchase them on the credits page by clicking "purchase".)
Level 1 users: Generally if you post a great resource or help people in the Level 1 forums you'll gain RedCents. A good post often earns enough RedCents in a few hours to afford level 2 access.
Level 2 users: Remember to RedCent helpful posts. Authors always appreciate it, and it doesn't cost you a cent.
Good and bad usage
RedCents are our primary method of rewarding good information. Using them for any other reason defeats their purpose. For example:
Good usage
- You reward an original, informative post.
- You reward someone's very funny post.
- Someone answers a legitimate question and you reward them.
Bad usage
- You give a RedCent because you like their name.
- You trade RedCents with other users.
- You give RedCents to people you like, regardless of the post content.
RedCent jail
All RedCent transactions are reviewed by a bored, board admin. It's a thankless job and oftentimes the admin will be overcome with rage. If you give them a hint of a reason, they'll toss you in RedCent jail.
