Hi i have a question about the host seeker economy. Can we sell our points and get money in our paypal accounts or can we only buy the points? if we can sell how much can we sell for. ive seen the sell option in the store but dont know if it works. Thanks

I think you're supposed to sell more than 400... which you can

It didnt work when i tried it? But yeah you can only sell 400 + and its worth $0.005 per point i think.

You were right Renshaw, a small typo in the script was just fixed.
You are now able to use the feature....

Is there any way we can sell points to/ buy points from using something else than paypal? I can't have a paypal account because they don't accept users from over here :(

Actually Not.
Maybe in the future if we are receiving a lot of request like yours.

You are anyway able to turn your points into Actions. I understand your concern but this system was not develloped as an e-Commerce solution. It is more a way to motivate/thank our active members than provide them a monthly income.

OK :)
Hm... I also think that one is better off with keeping his/her points, as thy may be of more use in this form rather than selling them for 1/2 cent

Hmm, I found this place because of an ad I found, dated June 5th, quoting the following figures:

Quote:

The rates are as follow:
Create a thread ............... § 20 HS
Reply to a thread ............. § 10 HS
Read a thread ................. § 0.10 HS
Refer a Friend ................ §100 HS
Good reputation ............... § 5 HS
Bad reputation ................ § -5 HS

Change with Paypal §1 HS = $0.03 (Min §200).

After 180 days, Loyal members will automaticly receiving 10% discount on all Actions.

There's a big difference between three cents and half a penny. Can someone clarify?

Sure, it is our Change rates.
You can buy points for $0.03 per points and resell them for $0.005.

But you should visit http://www.hostnode.com/showthread.php?t=85 (HostSeeker's Economy) because the Ad you saw is an old one and the rates changed since this time.
