"Limit for donations have been reached this month, it will be reset at 1st day of next month."

It appears that this limit is not individual but over all Yarold members.

This means that if a few members buy everything up to that limit at the beginning of the month, then at the end there is nothing left to buy (like a VIP status for instance) for the others.

This doesn't look fair to me. Limit should be individual.

Nothing but there are members who make an account. buy 5-10,000 credits and never click - just leaving the link to be clicked on main until the credits are gone - then buy some more - those members are now being stopped.

I don't see how a personal limit could work for the site.

I think she was referring to Bruno's suggestion that the limit should be that there is a limit on credits that each USER can buy per month.

I read the topic. thankyou.

I agree with a limit of some sort here on the site (shows Stan isnt motivated by greed). I think the best way is to have a limit per member rather than a total.

That could give the site a minus.
It is only a few that buys credits, if those few used to buy 100,000 but get's restricted to less ... who's going to buy the rest and keep the cash flowing in?

Judging by some comments here & elsewhere, I dont think personal limits would make a minus. There are people wanting to buy credits now & cant because the limit has been reached.

Yes the limit has been reached by those who usually buys - maybe knowing there is a limit makes some buy 1st of the month more than they might need but just in case?

What I mean is if a person usually buys 50,000 a month but is limited to 10-20,000 is there then enough people wanting to buy to still reach the 50,000? And what if those who usually buys stops buying?

I really don't see why there's a limit at all - let Stan get rich (as long as he spends some of the money to build that cookie-trap?) he deserves it for putting up with all this.
