What is ManyUses.org?
  • Welcome to ManyUses.org.

    The purpose for this website is to create a place for people wishing to find out about, or to discuss, the many and varied uses of ordinary, everyday objects and commodities, such as charcoal, garlic and lemon. These topics can be rooted in history, folklore and superstition, or innovative new ideas people have discovered through trial and error and want to share with others.

    Like all community projects, we want to see the site flourish and grow as a useful and entertaining source of reference for people seeking new or traditional answers to their questions.

    Please explore the site and let us know your thoughts about it, and what you would like us to include or change.

  • Introducing Karma Bank, a brilliantly coded plugin by Paul T.

    Now when you visit the site and contribute to discussions you earn Karma points, which are deposited to your Karma Bank. Karma points can also be awarded by to you by members with a higher reputation and taxed away from you by site authorities.

    Yet... the best part is still to come in the near future. A mechanism to redeem your Karma currency for goods and services. Stay tuned!

    Here are the current Karma rates:

    - Every Visits earns 0.01 Karma
    - Every new Comment posted earns 0.5 Karma
    - Every new Discussions started earns 1 Karma
    - Accepting an Answer earns 0.5 Karma
    - Having comment/response you written Accepted by others earns 5 Karma

    Your Karma Bank and transactions are visible in your profile under Karma Bank tab.
    Example: manyuses.org/profile/karmabank/1/ManyUses

    Notes:
    1) You cannot accept your own answer.
    2) More than one answer can be accepted. That's OK and enforceable, if another post contributes to completeness of the answer.
    3) Any cheating with Karma currency will be resulted in Taxation ( removal of points ), and possibly a ban.

Howdy, Stranger!
