Aww! Now you can pay for 8% of the very minor Subscription-Only features in various now-forgotten games without having to pay an extra 10 cents for paypal charges! I envy you. >_>

Nice collection! Consider yourself hereby officially envied! Considering Byond doesn't accept them anymore (hasn't for a while..), I find it utterly amazing that you have so many. How'd you collect them? Sold icons to ancient byond members over some odd amount of time? Or are you one of the few ancient byond members who was around during The Dime Period (as some people I know are referring to it now-a-days)?

Hey! They're not that ancient. I still have 73 dimes.

LoL Ooops-Sorry, Unknown! I was at a lost for a better way to describe those who were around during The Dime Period. I still can't think of anything better! I'm open to suggestions... -(:

I used to have dimes, traded them all away right before they took away the system.

I'm guessing I should have kept them.

Who knows, maybe those dimes will be worth a lil' somethin-somethin a few years from now.. to players who wants them bad enough.. even for the sake of preserving that lil' piece of Byond history.
Even as of today, those dimes are probably considered as artifacts now. How long has it been since Byond stopped the dime system? Has it been ten years yet?

143 dimes and you won't spend them on a Membership? >_>

You need 150 for a membership >_>

BYOND hasn't even been around that long =P. Dime transfers were stopped in early '04.

It's still possible to get BYONDimes, because BYONDscape uses them to pay its contributors. Also, if your game requires a subscription, you can set it so that BYONDimes can be used.

Really? Maybe I should start contributing to BYONDScape.

Why were they ever stopped anyway?
