Nima 978 Report post Posted March 24, 2009 right now im not sure how the terms work out and so forth, so in the next couple days i'll try to perfect them with the help of you guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RoGeTa 505 Report post Posted March 24, 2009 I would restrict the points to the hookah related boards. That way you don't have to give discounts for mindless babble. But that's just me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nima 978 Report post Posted March 24, 2009 thats a good point. I'm taking note of everything right now and will make changes accordingly in couple days Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest kalutika Report post Posted March 24, 2009 how do you mean dangerous? Because I am always happy to earn free stuff and I could see this being abused by people of lesser respect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nima 978 Report post Posted March 24, 2009 you are right. It can and probably will get abused by some people. I will add a clause in there that the management (me and moderators) can decide to refuse this service to any member that seems to be abusing it. This is only a way of me thanking all the members here for being active. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nima 978 Report post Posted April 4, 2009 I have updated the rules. We are now giving 100 points for referring new members... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest patt2k Report post Posted April 12, 2009 I have updated the rules. We are now giving 100 points for referring new members... Will it possible to exchange the points only to make a new order? or will I have to buy something first and then use points to add something? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nima 978 Report post Posted April 12, 2009 Im not sure what you mean. You can use your hookah points for up to 50% of your online order with us. So if you want to order something for $20 on the store you can pay up to $10 of it out of your hookah points Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nima 978 Report post Posted April 12, 2009 yes, they are much better than normal discounts as you can get up to 50% off your order. After all you wouldnt want us to go fully out of business, would you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZookahHookah 55 Report post Posted April 16, 2009 Just wondering, but I just posted another long review and it only gave me 1 point. Any reason? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nima 978 Report post Posted April 16, 2009 really? that should not have been the case. I just checked and the setting is set at 5 credits per post. for threads that you start yourself you will only receive 2 credits for additional posts in that thread.

ZookahHookah 55 Report post Posted April 16, 2009 is that 2 credits regardless of post length? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nima 978 Report post Posted April 16, 2009 no, post length has an effect too It is also an additional 0.01 for every character or word as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
