I guess you could easily change that to anyone who has POSTED in the last seven days.

That seems to have pretty much sorted it as there's a steady flow of cash coming in for people to play with. Only thing is that non-players get massive cash totals pretty quickly.

I don't know if the daily allowance will mean much. I give out 250 per night, and as fast as the members receive the cash, they bet it (and lose it). I think the same will happen if i increase the amount to 500. But like you said, non-casino members will just accumulate tons of cash, skewing the "Top Winners" board. Instead of it being a daily allowance for signing in, maybe it should be a combination of "sign in" + "casino". If a member didn't play the casino that day, then they shouldn't get cash. If they do get cash, it shouldn't be as much as those who play the casino.

I even considered allowing members to purchase $5000 casino bucks for $5 in real cash, but i really don't want members spending real money on a fake casino. Users have already brought this up saying "i'd rather spend $5 for casino cash than spend all night posting in this thread."

It's quite a pickle...
