Hi all,

This is a little notice that I changed some of the settings for the bank. Actions around WCO (such as posting, creating threads, and referrals) should give you more koins as a reward. You can see the new amounts here.

In addition, I'd like to formally announce a change to one of the old bank policies. For a long time members were unable to give out koins for their own contests, events, or simply to give thanks to another user for helping out.

As of this year, this policy is being removed. Users may give out koins for contests, events, art, or to give their thanks, as long as they let me know first and provide a comment in their donations note stating why they're donating (e.g. First place winner of my Spring Art Contest, Thank you for showing me around, etc). If you don't contact me first, your donation will be cancelled. You do not need an item in the bank to do any of this.

However, if you participate in something run by users, or purchase an item not in the bank, you do not have access to our refund policy. We are not responsible for cancelling donations if users outside the shop don't hold up their side of the bargain.
