Hi guys,

Next on my agenda is to make a point system. This, as you can guess, awards points for the activities that users perform (for example posting in forums, inviting a friend etc.)

I was wondering if someone could suggest (as many of you as possible :) ) any alternative "terms" or "names" for points system?

Besides the following, do you have a better name?

Points, Gold, Silver, Peanuts, Crackers, Dollars

Each name in the small list above, is either taken (hence it not being unique) or is VERY commonly used (find those terms on almost all of the sites with such systems)


I would like to ask if you can come up with a lucrative/unique term/name for "Points System"

Thanks guys,

-Matt

Hmmm... nice.

I was also thinking about "Rupees" and "Paisa"

I am sorry, I should have said..... no "real-world" currency names :P


here's what I have thought of so far..... when you are adding your input in regards to my thread, please also comment on what you think of the list below: *(INSTEAD adding to my list by multiple replies, I will just Keep editing this post to add to the following list)

1. Singular: Ashrafia Plural: Ashrafias

2. cones

3. Singular: Shell Plural: Shells

4. Singular: bead Plural: beads


... More to come.

Back to programming ;)
