To eliminate or at least reduce the spamming amounts of £1 cube fundings which appear in the "Today Live" message board. Is it possible to have a script which filters out anything say, below £10, thereby declutter the message board? This may not totally stop the spamming but it may act as an deterent. If the spammers still wish to spam the message board then let them pay for that privilege with amounts of only £10 + being shown in the message board. 2. Something to do with the leader board, at the moment if a member sells a cube they get 50 points for each cube sold. Howabout awarding points for cubes bought by members? Something along the lines of 10 points for a free cube bought from the site, 25 points for a cube bought from the site and 50 points for a cube bought from another member. 2012-02-03 at 03:31:04

As for your suggestion you already get cube funds for every visitor to the site....you want to have your cake and eat it as well? 2012-02-03 at 13:16:21

Hiding stuff in there I don't consider to be particularly smart, instead members should be educated about what the Today Live! feed represents, i.e. on the help page - one of several ways to get advertising exposure. Additionally, everything members do, they have to work for. More activity - more advertising exposure. That's a good thing, isn't it? So why are you suggesting to punish those who are very active? Regarding the adding of £1.00 cube funds many times in a row within a few minutes to the same cube, that gets boring pretty fast and members will likely stop doing it soon by themselves. Besides, the expected results for getting exposure like that is lower than people think anyway, because entries in the Today Live! feed are only shown for a short time period after which they are removed from being displayed. The conclusion being, lots of work for little gain. It's way better to spread the exposures throughout the day, which again requires activity. Professional marketers know how important repetitive advertising is. Here, for instance, you may get that by either buying a Clicks Package, buying a Banner Campaign or simply being active. And activity should be promoted, not punished - don't you think? 2012-02-03 at 18:20:25

You have got thousandS of cube funds every day ( i think over 1000+ ), just for nothing, because you have put big amount to A/c balance.... Yes, it is unfair.... and lol: do you want remove all these component also: " # No. of times you've logged in. +1pt per login # No. of invites sent. +1pt per invite # No. of standard cubes clicked. +1pt per click " Beacuse everybody got cube fundS for these ALREADY..... lol 2012-02-03 at 18:34:11

Player...to be honest i don't have too much of a problem with the way you do it (just wish you added a bit more cube funds and not always 1 second before the cut off time ;) )....my beef is with those who add multiple amounts of £1 to the same cube in the space of a few minutes.....there a few other members who are doing this a lot now. When a member puts a cube on sale, this can only be done once in 24 hours (unlike cube funds, which can be actioned multiple times during the day). Seems unfair to those members who just have one chance a day to get some exposure to their cube to have that exposure lost because of a spammer. The live feed does actually generate quite a few cube sales in my experience. 2012-02-03 at 18:59:09

All i am saying is that there is no reward for BUYING a cube (except the advertising hits and the possibility of selling that cube later), so why not get some sort of reward for buying cubes, you never know it, might increase the amount of cubes sold. I am NOT asking for other compoments to be removed, just do not understand the point you're trying to make, apart from the fact that you do not like members INVESTING in the site. 2012-02-03 at 19:13:29
admin 564 posts	Firstly, I do agree with Player on the adding funds issue. Most members will get bored with doing this and adding cube funds won't give you a great amount of exposure anyway. Our real advertisers prefer to purchase traffic packages. There is a limit to what we can do; activity is important to the site. Secondly, yes, we can look at implementing new additions to earn points for the leaderboad. Bare with us, we have a few things to work on first ;) 2012-02-10 at 16:53:06
admin 564 posts	PS. There is nothing wrong with users earning cube funds for leaving funds in their A/c balance. If users are willing to deposit funds, then they should be rewarded. 2012-02-10 at 16:54:11
