(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I thought it might be fun to run an auction where you can bid on changing a staff members name and they would have to use it for a week.
It might create a little value to Vbux, if it catches on, and be fun to see some of the names that are thought up

The way its going to work is we will accept bids for a name suggestion(within reason) No cursing, offensive, an existing members name or overly personal attacks

You post in here what your name suggestion is along with what you are willing to pay to have the staff member use it for a week.
You must have 100 posts to participate
Any posts that do not have a higher bid amount with a suggested name, will be deleted and you will not be eligible for the month end raffle :bat: (question posts are permitted)

You can create your own staff name or outbid someone else to use their suggestion.
Each suggestion has to be 5K vbux bid higher than the previous bidders and the each higher bid can be no more than 50K above the previous one, so more members can get into the bidding and be eligible for the monthly drawing.
An important thing to remember is that the Staff member can decide to bid as well, and keep their own name or pick one they like in the thread

Staff members will take turns each week on who is going to run with the high bidders name and cannot change it, once it is accepted and paid for. At the end of the month, anyone that posted in the thread with a legitimate bid will be entered in a raffle to win that months proceeds ( the total of all the winning bids)

I will be going first, so you are only to bid on names for me, any other staff name suggestions will be deleted.
If people are going to troll the thread, make suggestions without a bid, or suggest names for other staff members, they will be banned from the thread and be ineligible to participate in future staff name auctions.

The bidding will run for 24 hours, at the end of the period, the high bidder's name will be announced, the name accepted by the staff member, The bidder will donate his bid amount to JimE( who will keep track of the total Donations for the monthly raffle ) and the staff member will go with the name for one week.
If the high bidder does not pay, the next highest bidder will be selected.

If this catches on we may run a similar one for a signature line and user title

This is meant to be fun, have some community laughs, and not get mean spirited.....

I hope this can become a fun weekly event and the staff and members can have a good time without getting too personal..

So, if you are interested, Go ahead and put in a Bid and name suggestion for me, you have till Tomorrow night at 11pm to get your bids and Name suggestions in. :ha!:

NeedaNameSoon

So you can't participate either?

:yuno: organize, This is how you should do it, you should go from the top of the chain Admins (first) > Supers (sec) > Mods (third) > Event (4th) > Vbookie (5th) . You start it as Admins (starting bid 100k) , Supers (starting bid 75k) , Mods (staring bid 50k) , Event (staring bid 25k) , Vbookie (starting bid 10k) (nothing against vbookie, you guys are just the least in members. The Next thing you should do is this, Sticky the thread on GD, make the title Name Change for NeedaLifeSoon Auction, make it last for a week, than change (the name change last for a week) . Now, if possible add a vbookie like plugin , where it saids the highest bidder is _______ with ______ vbux , and when bidding is over they change the name. If you did not understand my suggestion or it was to broad, i would gladly expand on it sir. So for now do this, close this thead, Sticky this as Staff members name change rules. Now, put NeedaLifeSoon name change auction thread (sticky the new thread), and have it open from monday to next monday. Since the plug in takes time to make , do what i am about to say. In your thread , make the starting bid 100k on monday (start on monday), then anyone who can top that bid post .

Format :
Bid ______
Name change : _______

for everyone that posts . If anyone posts that does not have the money , wastes it , makes an unproductive post, etc, ban them from the thread , and of course delete.

Hope my suggestion , is taken under consideration, as i do like this idea

*Edit* : and obviously , people still have the right to not participate/skip

*Edit v2* : Also, anyone else who purposly sabatoges the fun of the thread (say your name is supposed to be "Needa___Soon, and change there name to Needa___Soon they will recive consequences

Why would I do that

1647 vbux for any staff name to "subscribe to youtube.com/exclusivebrad"

I will redo the thread after tonight and put it in as a sticky, I like your concept and want this to be more of a auction process, to get more members involved.
Think we can rotate the groups in order and go with a super next week, then Blue, so on..

The bidding has ended, the current High Bidder is OFWGKT▲ with 305K for the name " NeedaFapSoon"
The winner will be contacted and after his donation of 305K to the monthly Raffle, I will change my name for 1 week.
Bidders in this thread that arwe elegible for the monthly raffle are OFWGKT▲ , Sterg, kmanthecaveman , TFC, NeedaBlazeSoon
If the winning bid is not paid then NeedaBlazeSoon wins with 300K and the "Name I Love Diji"

vBookies > YT, News, TUT teams.

vBookies have to pump out events every day as there are sports every day. You guys don't do as much. :ha!:

interdasting ,

I love this idea needa, will really liven up the section one thing I would suggest is to make the highest bid a little more visible to the members, the most logical idea is to update the thread daily to give us a rough idea and then we can bid according to the highest bidder at that time! Otherwise great idea as I said, can't wait to see what names the members come up with for the different members of staff !
