How To Make Money (And Lose It)

Our RP section requires money to purchase the business of Louise and/or Kia.* (They don't work for free, you know!) If you're unsure of how to earn money, please read the following list:

How To Make Money
-Bank Bonus: Creating a Bank Account will automatically earn you $10,000.
-Post in Welcome!: Introducing yourself in the 'Welcome!' forum will earn you an additional $500. This only counts toward the first post.
-Advertise: Send us links and/or screen caps proving that you've advertised the forum. Chats are accepted, as long as they have 5+ people participating. For each link, $500 will be added to your account.
-Donate: Donating to the forum (yes, with real money) will help us earn a domain name! For each dollar you give, we will add $1,000 to your bank account!
-Post Frequently: Each post is worth $10. Meaningless thread bumps and spam will not be counted. (Read on for more details.)
-Topic Creation: Creating a new topic in the 'General Absolute Obedience' sub-forums and 'IN-OoP' forum will earn you an additional $100 each.
-Request Dossier: Upon Completion of your first Request Dossier, you will be rewarded $1,000. However, keep in mind that both Kia and Louise will ignore your entry until you have enough money to pay them.
-Befriend Kia and Louise: Money may be given to you as a gift by either Kia or Louise. Louise is rather loose with his endless cash supply and tends to hand out money to whomever he favors, but Kia spends his well-earned cash with a more level-head, so he will reward less frequently.

*Each mission requires a minimum of $15,000. Here's an easy way to earn that:
1)Join.
2)Create your bank account. +$10,000
3)Introduce yourself in the Welcome! forum. +$500
4)Advertise on five different sites/forums/chats. +$2,500
5)Post fifty times. +$500
6)Create five new topics. +$500
7)Complete your first submission to Kia or Louise. +$1,000

How To LOSE Money
-Bumps and Spam: Spam will absolutely not be tolerated. Nonsense posts and threads (obviously done to simply add to your post count), as well as thread 'bumps' will be deleted. you will be warned the first time, but every following spam post will count as -$500 toward your bank account.
-Infrequent Activity: If you neglect to post during your case in the Missions forum for more than five days, you will begin to be penalized for -$500 each following day. Kia and Louise specially chose your Request, and so it is your duty to continue interaction with them. If fifteen days have passed without contact, you are also at liberty to be dropped, due to loss of interest.
-Confrontation: Louise has high connections, and has been known to tamper with the accounts of those who really make an effort to piss him off. He is protective of Kia's interests, and may also alter the bank accounts of those who mess with him - by Kia's request, or on his own accord.

Note: Technically, if we were to be regionally and historically accurate, we would use the Deutsche Mark (DEM/DM) as our form of currency; however, for simplicity's sake, we will use '$'. BUT, if you think it would be better to use the DM, please send a PM to Bank.
