Default Re: Bank Points?

Banked points are your own points that you put in the bank (can earn interest that way). Go to the Vbplaza menu tab and then click on bank.

On the bottom left of each post is a white colored icon that lets you add to a member's reputation. After this gets done some (I don't know how much) you get karma. But I don't really know much about how it works, just general info. Hope this helps!

Default Re: Bank Points?

You use points to buy various things like gifts (the little icons underneath your stats, Karma, etc. You can also make changes to your username, change color, font, etc.

You can donate points to anyone, so if you have friend who wants to change their username color but doesn't have enough to purchase, you can share your points with them.

It also costs points to open attachments. It is 50 points each time you open one. So, if you want a boarding pass template or something, you must have the points to pay for it. That's why if it is something you think you will use often, you should save it to your computer. If you post your file then you earn 50 points each time someone opens it.

I think there is a sticky that describes it better. Just do a search for points.
