I have several friends who share the same problem as I do.
Having no credits to download wallapers and MT is practically useless to us.
We tried to earn credits but we can't seem to get it right.
Posted in so many threads but I don't seem to earn at all.
Wouldn't it be nice if the wallpapers are free to download?
What do you think?

No, because then the site will slow down a lot.
There are sites that let's you download wallpapers, but you have to Google search for it.

BTW: This is not a serious topic, why is it even created here?

Maybe MT can come up with an option to transfer credits from one to another?

like a type of loan,hmm how would that work,and u shouldnt have an problems getting credits,specially sense to download i think it only cost 0.04,i mean thats nothing even if your new to the place you start out with a good amount,and this will teach ya to only download what you truelly want instead of sensless loads -_-

yeah I mean... he s putting it as if MT just sucked all of his credits for a few downloads... that s just sensless... this is defenittly not a serious topic. it shouldnt even be discussed... yeah i agree with free wallpapers, but you can get them somewhere else... and if u r here just to download... u shouldnt be here at all ;)

I think level system of MT V2 was better then system credit. A good wallpaper or a good scan is too much expensive.

I have been with MT for quite sometime already.
I prefer the MT2 style rather than the current.
Downloading a typical wall cost about 0.2 credits.
Moreover I only download those that are supposedly desired.
The way to earn credits is unknown. I have tried ways that fellow MT members have suggested but apparently, I don't get any credits. Why?
Can someone tell me exactly what is meant by contributing to MT?
How about a banking system to help "losers" like me earn some bit of credits.
But then again...

Here are some ways to contribute...
1. Participating in forum discussions.
2. Posting (constructive) comments on gallery items.
3. Submitting quality scans and wallpapers to the gallery. (in return, earning feedbacks fom others)
4. Writing reviews.
5. And so on...

No this would not be a good idea for the simplre reason that MTv2 was like this and it was swarming with leechers stealing walls and posting them on other forums and such. People were simply joining to leech walls and scans which significantly. This is also not a serious discussion and is more of a complaint about the new level system.

And I thank you for the bandwith you guys aren't using...... <grin>

Tears erupt in our pants as the whine violin has been played .....

tip: There is a still a shitload of double scans and crappy wallpapers, report those and the cash will flow.

Time to change your pants and start reporting.

Yeeeehaaaaw.....

i earn credits easy, just go in MT website post some, browse/look around. earned 9 credits doin this for 2 days about 15-20 min each

yeah, earning is not that hard. and well, I think it was a good idea, though I was totally against it first, but I had been giving comments before, so I did not have to change my habbits, just those who had been grabbing without leaving comments

Well, I like both versions. I like V3 because like someone said, it keeps leechers from taking the credit of someone's hard work and calling it their own and posting in other forums. But, I liked the V2 system because if there was a wallie/scan that you liked, you could download it right away. With this new system, if there is a wallie that you like, you have just enough credits but not enough for anymore than one download, and you want to look around first to see if there is anything better, that can get kinda stressful. I mean, you could bookmark every page that has a scan/wallie that you like, but then you may not remeber which wallie you wanted. Also, if you try to remember the name of the person that made the wallie, because you don't get the credits you deserve right away, when you finally DO get the credits to download that wallie, you may have forgotten who made it and may never find it again. If I were to fully agree with the V3 system, I would have to say that I would want to be able to recieve credits IMMEDIATELY at the time that I would earn them. Thats what I think this person's problem is. He HAS contributed to MT, but because of the rule that you DON'T recieve your credits right away, he believes he is being unfarely treated or he just not recieving credits for some unknown reason. For all I (and maybe everyone else) know, it just might be a bug in the new system. I read Sheqel's thread about MT V3, and he said that you will recieve credits for contributing to MT, but you will recieve them over time. Just be patient dude, you WILL get them. I have full faith in Sheqel's system and I believe that it is just a matter of time before you can start downloading again. And besides, if you still haven't recieved any credits, talk to Sheqel. He made the site so he should be able to help you.

Don't worry! You'll get them eventually. :D

But I DO want to say one thing. Whoever suggested that we should be able to transfer credits is a genius. Think about it. For people who don't have credits, they can turn to friends for help. People could also RECIEVE DOUBLE the credits that they give out. I know that some people could use that to just get more credits and leech wallpapers (I haven't forgotten about that), but there could be a catch. Both sides would have to agree. Now there could also be someone monitoring the amount of credits being given out by people. Actually, there could be an indicator (like the level indicator) of how many credits were recieved, recieved for giving out the credits, and how many you gave out. If someone looks suspicious (like one day, their indicator for recieving credits due to giving them out was like, 10, and the next day it was 150) then one of the mods/admins could address that. They could check to see if the person was REALLY giving out credits to people who REALLY NEEDED them, check if that person was on their FL, and if they have been doing some mass downloading. If they were just doing it for credits and not to really help, then the mods/admins could address it however they wanted. But, if a person was transferring credits to a person who had very little, and THEN doing some mass downloading, then it could be okay.

I know this is confusing and what I say probably won't be even taken into consideration, but I think if Sheqel did this, then people may not complain about it as much and the system may be to EVERYONE's liking.

But, like I said: Don't worry! You WILL get your credits eventually. If you don't, talk to Sheqel and he should be able to help you.

Sorry for making this so long! ^_^'

Well... Personally, I don't really use MT to download wallpapers unless I really really like it. I think of it more of a place to show of your work. As for free wallpapers, there might not be exactly the same ones as ones on here, but there are plenty of sites with free anime/game wallpapers that are just as nice as some of the ones here.

You should be earning credit when you participate in things like forum threads and gallery comments. It's just that you don't get them all at once. I don't really contribute to the gallery cuz none of my stuff is good enough, but I always get credit for my forum posts. Usually goes up 0.5 at a time! I don't know how much each thing is worth, but it usually goes up the next time I log in.

But the credit transfer is pretty interesting. I've been to forums where they do that with "gold" which was the currency used for participating and stuff. And we could use it to "purchase" things like custom title and all that... Really helped to be able to transfer it around to help out friends and stuff like that.

I don't know. I'm not complaining since I do have credit XD But I also see mine go up when I participate, so yah...

It's kinda annoying at first that wallpapers cost credits, but in a way, that's a good thing. Before with the levels, once I reached like 20, I stopped participating and just downloaded stuff. Now, I constantly am commenting, and meaningfully, on submissions and in guestbooks as well as adding people to my watchlist.

I dont mind one bit having to pay credits to take wallpapers. I do mind the way they have it set up. Before MT3, I would download everywallpaper I commented on just so I could have the full view and give some good pointers. Now, I cant do that so much.

I dont mind the credit system, but I wish there was a way to view a larger size of the picture to comment on, but not beable to download it.

And like everyone says, the credit system is still new to people. Everyone is still trying to figure out how it really works, just be patient. If you contributed a lot, not just spamming up the fourm, mind you, then you should get plenty of credits to download.

You couldnt have been that low if you were even able to start this thread.

I could understand how some new members are going to be upset with credit system. I kind of liked level system too but the leechers who downloaded wallpapers and scans took huge toll on the bandwidth and made access and download slow often. The site could have started charging a nominal fee and that was brought up but if I remember correctly, complaint was raised about who can pay, how much, payment in what format, payment system can destroy MT's uniqueness, etc.

I also want to add that credit system was created to deter leechers more than anything. If you contribute to MT than credit system will not be an issue at all.

I have a question to ask. You're not happy with the new credit system but what contribution have you given to MT? I checked your member's page and noticed that you joined 24 weeks ago. However, I also noticed that you only made:

Gallery Comments: 2, Guestbook Enteries: 1, Forum Post 9, Wallpaper 0, Doujinshi 0, Scans 0.

I do not know how to do wallpaper and I do not own scanner so that leaves me only particpation in forums and leaving comments in wallpapers and scans I download. To make sure I don't run out of credit I have become more selective in what I download. For losing free download I also noticed the gain. No more sluggish access. I have no problem with the new MT3.

i think the current system is good in a way, less leechers and less slowdown of site, while i have slowed down markedly due to paying for downloads and looking at random ones haha, its a good idea, but bites as well if you run out

another way is to create threads, useful ones :P

How about granting 1 free download to a member every 24hours. At least thats not so bad when we suddenly find some of ourselves spending more can we can? But I fear some members will create multiple accounts, just to gain that advantage.

That will now work. MT want people to participate. Whether you want to or not is up to you but if you decide not to contribute than that means no credit and you will not be able to download scans or wallpapers. Simple as that.

There is another reason I like MT's new credit system. It forces you to make a decision. It will not grant you instant gratification. If you want to get something than you have to earn it. The system in a way replicate real life.

the reason why they cost credits is because they use up bandwidth--- everything you download will cost credits.

I have more credits than I actually need- I'll never get rid of them, and there will be a point where you'll feel the same eventually. If you download something bad, you can report it for poor composition, bad extraction etc. and you will earn those back. If you also leave a decent comment, that is, something of good substance, no "honey I like, fave", you will most likely earn a neat profit.

The point will come. The walls will not be for free. If you like free wallpapers, you might want to go to other places like animepaper.net they provide 15 free wallpaper downloads in 24 hours- only scans will cost papers- there's your wallpaper fix if you need it :)

Thanks Kuroimisa for the suggestion of going to animepaper.net .
But I have been there and there doesn't seen to be as much nice walls as there are here. MT still has the greatest variety of walls as far as I know.

lol I don't have an animepaper.net account myself. I don't care for credits, and they (credits and papers) do not make any sense to me. I tried to get rid of my credits for a whole hour today and I was happy to get rid of many, then I come home, log in again and they were back :(

If you leave good comments and contribute well, you shouldn't have any problem at all downloading anything. I know for a fact I downloaded probably about 30 scans today and my credit balanced hasn't really changed all that much... maybe gaining and losing at the same time reduces its effects.

As for the quality at minitokyo, that is true :D I spose, it's credits system then :)

Yes of course!
