Earn Rune Credits in the Longhouse
Good conversations are worth something here. Start a thread that gets people talking and you'll earn Rune Credits toward your readings.
How to earn
- Your account needs to be at least 90 days old, with a verified email address.
- Start a thread of at least 35 words, in any forum except announcements.
- When 5 different members have replied to it, and the thread is at least 3 days old, you earn 1 Rune Credit. Your own replies and replies from the staff don't count toward the five. There's no deadline: a thread that reaches five members months later still earns.
- Rewards show as shards: every 10 shards is one Rune Credit, and a rewarded thread earns 10.
- You can earn up to 50 Rune Credits a month this way.
- Replies don't earn on their own, but they're what make a thread count, so keep the conversation going.
Spotlights
Now and then the staff spotlight an outstanding thread with an extra 10 Rune Credits. Spotlights don't count toward the monthly limit. Threads that have earned carry a small rune mark in the forum.
About Rune Credits
- One Rune Credit is worth 10¢ (10 credits = $1).
- Spend them on any reading that's sold for Rune Credits.
- They don't expire. They can't be exchanged for cash or moved to another account.
Keeping it fair
- Threads removed for breaking the forum rules don't earn, and rewards already given for them can be taken back.
- Please write for the conversation, not the credits: threads made only to collect rewards will be removed.
- If a payment for Rune Credits is refunded or disputed, the credits on the account may be taken back up to its balance, including earned ones.
