Maybe add a "challange player" feature:
For example: I can challange you for 20 credits in the arcade and play the game and score 2000, then you play later and if you get over 2000 you'll get the 20 credits.
Just another day in my life.

Ok ill respond to a few of these ideas.

Buy reputation points:
We use to have this feature but it was removed because I thought it was unfair for people to buy reputation while others were earning it that normal way and to be honest reputation should be earned and not bought.

Advertising:
This is a good idea and something I can do quite easilly so I will look into it.

Buying friends:
lol not sure why you would want or need to do this. We are all friends here.

More rewards:
I would love to do this but at the moment its not possible because I dont have the funds available to do it. At the moment all prizes given on the site are paid for by me out of my own pocket when I have money to spare (which isnt often lol). This is a non-profit website and the money from ads/donations just arnt large enough yet. Our biggest source of income at the moment comes from the Credit Topup feature but not enough people are using it often enough. If more of you used the topup feature even just doing the free offers, surveys, watching videos and tried to do atleast 1 topup offer every day then that would help raise more funds and we would be able to give better rewards/prizes.

Raffle/Lotto/Polls:
I will see what I can do it shouldnt be too hard to add these.

Group Credits:
This is an interesting idea that needs a bit more thinking but I do like the general idea of it and ill see what I can do.

Any more ideas?

Buy rep should stay off, as Cody's right it should be earned not bought.

How about profile customization. Where we buy credits for premade themes, but later on have the ability to customize our own profile via html, and css. I personally would disable Javascript, cause don't know if anyone here would put a keylogger on there or not. It's just a safety precaution.

I'm running out of ideas lol

You could buy a patent/trademark/copyright or something like it to make it where people cannot post a program with the same name, basis, etc with the same as the one you patented. Of course, this would need to be a very expensive purchase, and you would need ways of enforcing. Like this:

400 Credits: Copyright Program Name
500 Credits: Copyright Program Icon and Name
1000 Credits: Patent Idea, Icon, and Name

Many would not like this, and I can see myself getting told about it, I just thought of a suggestion.

To be quite honest. I don't see a way you'd be able to do this with credits.

Like this:

When you purchase the Copyright Program Name, you enter the name of the program and it sends a message to the admin and mods and once they read it, they warn whoever posts an app with the same name. The same goes with the next idea...

When you purchase the Patent Idea, Icon, and Name, you upload your app and it gets sent to the admin and mods to review, then they monitor the forums for people who post any apps with the same basis. Like if I make a scrapbook app and patent it, noone else can post a scrapbook app from then on (but they can make a, say, BABY scrapbook app, or a MARRIAGE scrapbook app)

Also, I don't mean legal patents and copyrights, just site-wide.

Purchase ad clicks. The buyer purchases for example 10 ad clicks. Every time someone clicks the ad, the ad clicks will decrement until it reaches 0 and the ad won't be displayed anymore

site-wide you say... That will be useless because theres something called respect. The users won't copy your name/app without getting derepped/blamed/...
