[QUOTE=Kecske;52908935]Does it still increase by 2 coins every time?[/QUOTE] Looks like it, yeah. It'll cost me 23 coins to increase my width to 76px.

[QUOTE=Alice3173;52908965]Looks like it, yeah. It'll cost me 23 coins to increase my width to 76px.[/QUOTE] well shit that means you need 9472 coins from the start to reach 80x160 don't even ask about 150x300 [sp]it's 63092[/sp]

15K posts = 150 coins :suicide:

If I merge now and I get the gold reward for 5 year-2k posts later, does that automatically transfer over to newpunch?

"Invalid Migration" rip

So before I make a huge mistake if I get up to 80x80 can I use a gif as an avatar still?

If you are getting errors during the migration checkpoint, smack the refresh button and present your passport again.

[QUOTE=Kecske;52908974]well shit that means you need 9472 coins from the start to reach 80x160 don't even ask about 150x300[/QUOTE] Well so much for 80x160, lol. I'd only even earned something like 19 coins since first joining newpunch to begin with. Seems like Garry may need to rethink the progress because ~9500 coins seems like it'd take pretty absurd amount of time to reach. 19 coins in 9 days means around 4500 days (12.3 years) just to reach 80x160. [QUOTE=Spacewolf;52909003]So before I make a huge mistake if I get up to 80x80 can I use a gif as an avatar still?[/QUOTE] Gifs are still valid so long as it's not above the avatar limits from my understanding. Edit: [quote]don't even ask about 150x300[/QUOTE] Wow, 59,417 coins unless my calculations are off. Jesus christ. (So add around 60 years to the time I'd previously stated.)

[QUOTE=FlakTheMighty;52908991]"Invalid Migration" rip[/QUOTE] Try doing it twice

yeah i know he wants it to feel like a feeling or accomplishment or something...but it seems like it would take an actual lifetime to get the coins needed and i thought the time needed in battlefront 2 was bad

[QUOTE=Furnost;52909025]yeah i know he wants it to feel like a feeling or accomplishment or something...but it seems like it would take an actual lifetime to get the coins needed and i thought the time needed in battlefront 2 was bad[/QUOTE] yeah honestly the coins thing is just a bad idea tbh. and if you're going to have them, don't make it ridiculous to expand to what we have here. like, i can understand wanting to cap it from super ridiculous sizes that are page-breaking - but you could also cap it at a certain point and not allow users to keep purchasing size upgrades, or only have the ridiculous coin prices after that size (say 80x160).

Sell coin lootboxes. Problem solved.

Just let me throw $15 at you again so I can have my old avatar size back, Jesus fuck, I really am not interested in spamming threads to earn some retarded currency.

Took me 15K posts and 9 years to get ~160 coins, which got my avatar size to 76 x 68 Gonna take 400 times that effort to get to 300 x 150 (64000 coins) That's 3600 years I'm sure I'll get a sense of pride and accomplishment when I get there though

it really hurts some of us that dont post like 50 times a day so its not like i would go around obviously shitposting but i would make way more pointless posts

I thought when you migrated accounts your avatars migrated over too, is that not the case?

[QUOTE=BANNED USER;52909052]I thought when you migrated accounts your avatars migrated over too, is that not the case?[/QUOTE] Nope

posting on the forum for 10 years seems to have netted me around 9 pixels

[QUOTE=Furnost;52909051]it really hurts some of us that dont post like 50 times a day so its not like i would go around obviously shitposting but i would make way more pointless posts[/QUOTE] From what Garry's said previously, posting a shit load shouldn't affect your progression. If my understanding is correct progression just checks each day if you've actively browsed the site, rated at all, and/or posted at all. The more you do any of those things doesn't make it quicker to progress so as to not punish lurkers and to avoid encouraging spamming for coins and levels.

some of us would be a lot richer if it counted fast threads posts before those got wiped off of post counts again lmao. good thing they aren't counted

got 201 coins via migration now i have a 74x74 new fp avatar that went by fast

So if I make posts now after the merge, will they count towards NewPunch?

The trick is, you don't merge your accounts yet. Just post there until you have a reasonable post count, then merge.

[QUOTE=NightmareX91;52909074]some of us would be a lot richer if it counted fast threads posts before those got wiped off of post counts again lmao. good thing they aren't counted[/QUOTE] Not to mention going even further back when custom forums were a thing on FP, I recall having like 8k - 9k post count just from posting primarily there.

[QUOTE=Kecske;52908974]well shit that means you need 9472 coins from the start to reach 80x160[/QUOTE] Did Garry learn from EA?

I just want my avatar from here on there, except rotated 90 degrees so Officer Bailey can panic-dance normally

i should have played jbmod instead

[QUOTE=Niney;52909095][img]https://i.imgur.com/bPen1c8.png[/img][/QUOTE] There's always a risk, then.

100 posts for 1 coin is too much work son, I much rather do the daily AFK quest for 2 coins
