Hi, let me introduce myself, i'm the one in charge of all the mess that you're facing on CF2 right now.
Now that the bad part is passed, let me talk about a bug we had yesterday...
some guys here found out that i forgot a detail related to the Banking for the Blessings... i forgot to change the number of days before being able to receive interests on bank deposts... it was set to "0"... so imagine, each time you were visiting the bank, you were receiving a ton of blessings in interests. The problem is that these fun guys were playing with the flaw so much that they gained millions if not billions...
So instead of making some hunting and have someone profit from the flaw, it was decided that the best thing to do was to revert the Blessings to what they were to the point of the upgrade... but it is not the best thing to do as you would loose the blessings you gained by posting on the forum AND the ones you received in gifts... so i decided to give everybody an extra 5000 blessings for the problems occuring.
I hope this will ease the revert for everybody...
Also, some details about how things will work for now.
The blessings are actually points you gain in some actions, like posting, repping, rating threads... a lot of things, but also a lot of settings in the admin side.
We changed from a bloated system to a very professional system, supported by the solid duo of coders who built this system... But as you know, the more professional you go, the more complicated are the situations --- not so on the userside though, because in the days to come, you will gain more features than before.
For now, we changed the subscriptions... instead of 1000 blessings for each 1$ you invest, the amount of blessings is exponential... the more you subscribe, the higher the number of blessings.

Also, as you can see in your navbar, you can see that link... so basically, that's it.. .you can buy blessings, directly from your paypal account, just because you want blessings. This is a different way to do a cool donation to CF.com, but also a good way for you to control how much blessings you want to gain. Here too, the more blessings you buy, the cheaper they get...
