Hi guys i was thinking the other day about how to improve the credit system so i thought why don't we add more options for all our registered users buy allowing them to use there credits for anything for example say I'm having trouble with my program and i need help then i would make a post in the job section asking for a certain amount of people and offering a certain amount of credits per week/month/year then if your really serious about the job you would write up a contract that the person applying would sign so that they don't just try to steal your credits and never do the job.
If the person who gets the job takes there pay and never does the any work then one of the site admins will choose what happens next.
I also thought it might be fun to add a basic stock exchange which would allow a user who uploads there
program, picture or source code they can make it investable which would allow people to invest in the program which means every time the download rate of the upload rises the investors shares will be worth more if the rate falls the shares will be worth less.
The investor can pull out and sell there shares back to the uploader or trade them to someone else also when the uploader makes there upload investible the will go through 2 stages

1. they choose how many shares will be for sale.
2. they choose the price of each share.

Hopefully you all like these ideas and if you have any of your own ideas i think everyone would like to here them cooll;

Some interesting ideas there Smiley and I have something similar planned for the credit system but its going to take some time to get it finished. Alot of things still need to be done/added to it but more features are planned for the future cooll;

I like the Idea of the Stock Exchange, as i dont know of any other site out there that has a feature like that ( altho i dont trawl the net for sites ) So yeah that could be a unique Feature and what better to have Unique features on the BEST SITE on the net :)

I think the stock would be overused, and it would give out too many credits, although I would like it, it still seems a little overpowered as I would say. But I really like the Hire Coders thing!

We would need to give users that just registered more credits too. omg;
