Today, after three months of development, our community can finally expand by
two brandnew milestone features:


- The Community Hall including the Point Market
- Executive Memberships


1. Community Hall and Point Market
The
Community Hall is a highly customizable
activity measurement system calculating an
activity and experience score for you based on your activites throughout DV.
The system is based on the
Hall Points. You get hall points based on specific activities, including:
posting, DJ'ing, being online, filling their profile, referrals, Wiki'ing, etc.
We have set up the system to
directly promote the ontopic areas by giving significantly more points for ontopic posts (and DJ entries, Wiki articles, etc.) than offtopic ones.
To find out, how many points you get for each activity, click on the "
Earn Points" tab in the Community Hall navigation bar.
Furthermore you get
achievements upon meeting certain requirements like being registered for 1 year or having a vivid
Dream Journal. Those achievements are being
displayed in postbit together with your activity status.
To summarize it: With this system, you can see how your ranking continuously increases by contributing to our community! 

....and that's not enough:
In the Point Market you can use your points to purchase features and rewards! 
And if you don't want to wait until you have enough points to get all those fancy features, you can also
purchase points at any time with the
DV Points Converter!!

2. Executive Memberships
Executive Memberships are packages of brandnew premium features which are available for purchase!
The introduction of those packages is based on
two principles: On the one hand we want to provide the
highest possible amount of advanced and individualistic features on DV for users who are looking for the most *
exclusive* way to enjoy their stay at DV and/or want to
stand out from the rest, while on the other hand we want to finally set up an environment for members wanting to
donate to DV.
Although DV gets more and more donation enquiries lately, those have always been
categorically rejected because of the lack of ability to provide an
appropriate benefit in return for the donors.
To summarize it: By introducing the Executive Memberships we finally can satisfy the needs of both mentioned usergroups while all other members won't be affected as we don't restrict any features for basic members but instead only add new premium features.
Make sure to check the
Membership Comparison Matrix for a detailed list of all available features!
