Reduced Collateral

[Nika]

I read that we're eligible for reduced collateral (for item lending) after 100 posts on the boards. Does anyone know how much collateral goes down per 100 posts?

You'd have to ask Izzy, she's the lass to talk to about this stuff. I got a very significant reduction in my lends for ZDAP and Meowclops and I think I only had a couple of hundred then :)

[Nika]

Thanks for the info! I'll go find her :)

Hi. I would like to know the same thing as Nika. But who is Izzy? And how do I contact her?

Hey guys. :D I help with the item lending, though Izzy handles the more expensive item lends. (Like the FQD, Chokato, Meowclops, and ZDAP.)

 

Izzy has stated on another post (I've placed it below) that it's preferred that you just request the items, and state how much collateral you can offer, instead of asking how much you'd be required to offer.

 

 

We'd rather discourage people from asking for their specific collaterals via the forums. Please just apply and state what your maximum possible collateral would be ;)

Thanks Spritzie for that information but I would still like some kind of estimate on how much I can get it lowered by. I want all the avatars I can get!!!!! But I can't always afford the full collateral. So I was wondering about how much or what would be worth reduction. I'm the kind of person that if I can't obtain the goal set for me by others I won't even try for what I want.

You should probably get your post count up first ;) From what I understand, reductions based on post count are in place because we get a measure of people's trustworthiness based on how actively they contribute quality posts :)

If you want all the avatars you might as well get your post count up first, and worry about how much you have later - especially since you've got ahefty 80 posts before you can have a discount. So.. don't think about how many posts you have to make - just chill and have fun :)

Its doesn't go down regularly per post over 100... its a log scale. The only way I can calculate it is to enter people's current count into our collateral calculator. I'm not interested in entering random counts in it until I find the one where a user has that much collateral. Hence, my request that Spritzie posted above that I'd prefer if people simply apply and state their maximum collateral.
