this is a big one and probably too big. i think its a cool idea and i wanna share it but that doesnt mean i need it asap.

(edit: oh yea sorry in advance for nonsense wording and grammar im writing this at 2am and my brain is already in sleep mode)


alrighty.
this idea is similar to this one from 2010.

right now, if someone sends you boons you get alerts for it and you can view the message in your alerts-tab. and this is already very cool, i liek that!


but what if.... below the alerts-tab, there would be another tab named "Bank" (or something fancier) and it leads to a brand new page which looks like online banking. this is where you enter the "BotB Bank" and have access to your account.

on this page, all your incomes and outcomes will be logged (or, as suggested in the 2010-thread), they will be limited to 64 transactions.

the main problem here is that you mostly get boons or even just nubs for very small things and listing them all seperately would be pointless.

but i think it would be interesting if you could see all the botbr giftings, ohb deposits (and boonloss / boonback stats), if you buy a palette etc in a list and maybe another row with "general activity income" where all the other boons you got are summed up. (or sorted by entryplays, profile visits, hosting-stuff)
maybe with a monthly summary of how much you earned (or lost) compared to the previous month.

that would also make it more obvious when taxes occur.

could also have a transaction-section where you can enter a botbrname and give them boons (i know this is already possible via the profiles, but why not have it there as well just because it would add to the online banking feeling)

im not sure how boons are implemented but my guess is that this would be a lot of work. im posting it nonetheless

I would like to know which specific entries I'm earning Boons on at a given time...

this could become a huge amount of data very quickly

yes i was thinking about that. its a problem
now that this is a thread i wont forget about it tho and will bump if i have another idea for this. or someone else

A n00b and his b00ns are soon parted

having thought about it some more:

tracking every transaction is way too much
tracking a total of boons per day per entry might be ok?
tracking total boons earned per entry would be very small

...but then you'll ask for stats around boons for renders

...and then you'll say people shouldn't be able to opt-in to boon monetization until they have 1,000 entries :U

hahaha, well as soon as a new feature arrives, there are always ideas for MORE, thats true.

my initial idea was to have an overview of all the boons you lose (for xhbs, palettes, threads, giving boons to botbrs) + when you get your xhb deposit back or get boons from other botbrs

everything else is nice to have but not needed, though i like your idea with stats per entry as well.

edit: i mean technically, the thing i suggest is nothing else than displaying the stuff you already know (because i could log all this stuff manually, since all these transactions (except taxes) start with me clicking a button). im just a fan of log files lol

edit2: your idea would actually giv new information, which is cool!
