Allow donating credits to nominated DDG creators, capped at 20 credits per day #202
I've just had an idea — how about we have the ability to donate credits to one or more DDG creators that we nominate? We could cap the amount at say 20 credits per day total donations.
There are a number of uses for this, including to show appreciation to someone else.
Declined: Declined: energy that moves between accounts is too easy to misuse.
I really like this idea. ❤️ On Flickr, people can gift another user a month of subscription as a little token of friendship or appreciation, and I always thought that was such a sweet feature.
Maybe DDG could eventually offer something similar too, either small credit gifts or even a short subscription gift. It could be a nice way to say, “I really appreciate what you create here,” without turning everything into likes and rankings. 😄🎨
A little generosity button in the dream garden sounds rather lovely to me. 🌱💕
I also had a thought that it would be cool if I could give energy for a particularly cool dream.
And for a comment - then we could have a "best comments" page - comments would take off :D
That would be one of the uses, yes.
I put this in Chat. You can do this now. Buy the credits and then ask Admin to transfer them to the person. No need to cap them.

that was good of you, Nau.
Thanks for the idea, and it's a kind one. We've decided not to add it. Energy that can move between accounts is very easy to misuse: several accounts can feed one, or energy can be traded for likes and Tries. We've just had to deal with exactly that kind of coordination around Inspiration Points, so we'd rather not open a new way for it.
