Habbox charity counter

what did he even do

he did what anybody would do! stop CODDLING HIM

That's his allowance for the next decade gone, back to living like a rogue, servicing old men.

Yeh, I don't think it was a big deal nor any conspiracy (some people here think they're Sherlock Holmes). But it was a good thing to do in the end.

idk, I definitely wouldn't have opened my pockets to the tune of £150 just because someone didn't set a counter up properly lol

I'd like to say Jin / Sierk that was a really honorable thing to do!

I am not sure if it was redesigned but if it was the likely chances is that it is using whole values and not calculating the actual outpayment from these transactions. Though even still it doesn't account for a large sum of money even if we account for the fees.

The likely chances is that it is actually calculating by number_of_months * £1.50 but some people earn discounts for purchasing blocks of 3 6 and 12 months which would obviously skew the figures.

Edit:


Not defensive at all. Just me saying that I cba if you are the only skeptic, I am trying to use this swindled charity money to upgrade the server atm...

The current system counts how much money gets calculated for paypal to charge so it really couldn't be skewed by that. One thing it does do however is use static exchange rates for currencies, if there was a lot of purchasing in foreign currencies then that may be an issue. But when I was editing it before I didn't really see the point as they don't fluctuate *that* much.

If I were you I would check the transactions on the DB against the paypal transactions to see if IPN broke at some point.

So who exactly can we blame for this? :P

I always thought Jamesy created it. :P

Jamesy made it and the code behind it seems fine to me.

Thought Jamesy was just behind skins? not actual products / plugins
