A suggestion

Add some kind of point system that you get from posting in the general forums, other then the Spam Forum. Moderators and Admins should be able to modify points, give or take, set, etc.

That way on shops you wouldn't have to be ye old trader from the ancient times looking for the shiny stone in exchange for the blue rock, instead you would have some kind of currency to give to another user.

Just a suggestion.

The Point of the shops isnt to buy, or trade, its to make something for someone else.
For nothing in return. I think if there where to be some sort of currency the place would
get to complicated...

But if we had currency then we would feel like our items were being sold, not stolen.

True, but to make it look like its not stowlen you
Put "Made By Whoever" Or �"© Whoever".
Currency would overcomplicate what forums
are, And A forum is a web application for holding discussions and posting user generated content. Internet forums are also commonly referred to as Web forums, message boards, discussion boards, (electronic) discussion groups, discussion forums, bulletin boards, fora (the Latin plural) or simply forums. The terms "forum" and "board" may refer to the entire community or to a specific sub-forum dealing with a distinct topic. Messages within these sub-forums are then displayed either in chronological order or as threaded discussions.

Such forums perform a function similar to that of Usenet newsgroups and the dial-up bulletin board systems that were numerous in the 1980s and 1990s. Early web-based forums date back as far as 1996. A sense of virtual community often develops around forums that have regular users. Technology, computer games and/or video games, fashion, religion, and politics are popular areas for forum themes, but there are forums for a huge number of different topics. Internet slang and image macros popular across the internet are abundant and most widely used in internet forums.

Lawl, Understand, Currency would over-complicate it.
