I don't think Mis¢ is the same as TBG credits. For example, you could say,"Bubba, I'll give you 50 Mis¢ if you help me with this project." Or you could give members of a company a salary using Mis¢. Get it? Could you please re-open it?

Having currency in the forums would make them into a sort of game...

I agree.

Well, people don't have to use Misc. They can just use it if they want to for certain things, especially projects that are made by more than one person.

im agreeing with chris and jonathan, having money in the misc. section, spending it, etc is a type of text based game

I agree...
...however, it's not exactly a TBG, but it's like one.

So there should be no fun in the forums, those-who-say-this-is-a-tbg-and-deserves-to-die? I think not. The purpose of life is happiness, why not be happy?

If you want it, go use TBG!

I tried making a new currency and the forum mod closed it.
We should have one here.
Oh yeah, and somelia, congrats on 900 posts!

A Miscellaneous currency, even if related to miscellaneous in some way, is still probably more better suited for the TBG forums. Perhaps you guys can incorporate the concept behind Mis¢ with the current TBG currency you have on the TBG forums?
For example: Let's say companies give out a Mis¢ salary to their employees. The employees could spend it on the shops in the TBG forums.

What? But Misc and TBG Credits are different. Misc is for Scratch related things, and TBG Credits are for games in the TBG. It may be possible to use TBG Credits instead, but that would only work for people that play TBG.

IMO, you don't even need currency for requests. You could just ask people for a love-it or something at exchange of a request.

Yeah, but what if it's a big request? A love-it isn't going to be enough. I think it makes more sense to just make a currency for that sort of thing.
PS: This should probably be moved to Suggestions.

Lots of credit maybe, or multiple love-its.
If you want more than that, I'm not sure.

I still think it would be a lot simpler if we just used Misc.

How is it simpler?
Without misc:Hey can you Love-it this project? 20 minutes later loveit received.
With misc: hey can you love it this project for 20misc? Ok sure. Love-it received. Ok now wait 1-24 hours for martianshark to change our misc.

Requests and such involving credits are allowed in the TBG... you can set up a business there.
I'm not sure about collaborations, though - but in my opinion, people shouldn't be paid to work on a Scratch collaboration; they should work on it because they want to.
