I updated the 1.1 code with the fix, you can download it now. what I meant was I won't put up 1.2 until I'm done with it :-p

1) Allow people to buy the points/cash via paypal.
2) Allow people to cash out on their points/cash via paypal: set a rate via acp- every 1000 points = 1 dollar or whatever you want.
3) Allow people to donate/transfer points to other members on the site (which you've already done)
4) Integrate this with the Thanks System (e.g. receive a Thanks, get a Point) and maybe groan system (lose a point...can be abused, so IDK)
5) When a member has received so many points, they are "promoted" to another usergroup.
6) Have an option for the points/credits to expire. Such as, after x months of inactivity on the site, start having a deduction in points (which is set via ACP). Sort of like old gift cards that you would buy from circuit city. If you have it for 1 year, you start losing 5 bucks off the card after every month until all the money is gone.
Discussion of paid addons out in the open at vborg is against the rules so I cant really say anything here, but I can in PM (or email)

cashing out sounds really exploitable, although it could work if you were stringent about where and what points you granted (so an actvity credit would be difficult to spam)

I still have to look into what kind of addons I could make with hacks that dont already allow integration (let alone even use a) points system. I was looking into the arcades, but I need some ideas of what roles the points should play. same thing with the thank you hack.

Your last two - will consider.

Edit: One question though, id like to change the maths involved in displaying the end point result in the member list, postbit etc. Where should i be looking if i wanted to do that, the product?
New version 1.2 there are some new features with that which I will announce with the release later., and includes a plugin which you can edit to change any display things.
