Describe the feature

Alright, I have read some of the other credit donation things. I want to bring up a new perspective. What if players can only give other players credits, if the accounts were NOT registered on the same IP / and the person on the other end has to accept the credits within a certain amount of time, and when they do they have to verify their email. This would be helpful if they had to accept on the other end because you can’t have 2 accounts open at the same time on one device.

Now, I am aware this is still very similar, but I’m just adding security so they can’t transfer very easily, but at the same time, you can get other people to vote in your name and it still goes through, don’t say this is wrong because I’ve been using it for over a month. There will always be ways through all security.

How the feature is useful

This benefits nearly everyone.

While there may always be ways to bypass security measures, to have a security measure in place that can be done as easily as just going on your phone and turning on data doesn't make any sense to me, it could also even be bypassed through just going on another computer.

Personally, I like #377's way of implementing a credit donation system rather than giving credits, you would be able to buy credits except the credits would just go to the person you're buying them for.

Yes, I do like that feature too, but sometimes it’s just easier to give credits to players.

Would allow people to abuse voting more than they already do, no.

Top.gg tries their best to prevent alts, you can’t vote if someone on your network already has.

A credit donation system would be a gold mine for people who hack accounts. The ability to buy them as a gift is better
