Coins

Coins are the currency that can be spent by viewers. Typically, a viewer will earn a set amount of coins every  x  minutes.

In these settings you can change the following:
 * 1) How many coins viewers start with
 * 2) How often coins are rewarded to viewers
 * 3) How many base coins (before karma) are rewarded to the viewer
 * 4) Minimum amount of coins to spend when purchasing items
 * 5) Whether, the store should allow you to spend unlimited coins regardless of your balance
 * 6) Option to allow viewers to gift each other coins

Minimum amount of coins to spend when purchasing items?
This setting is to prevent viewers from spamming buy events such as "!buyevent graniteblocks 1", which could be purchased for 4 coins at default value. Raising this option can also help prevent viewers from farming karma. Farming karma is where a viewer buys items as quickly as they can get the coins to maximize their coin rewards.

Are viewers able to gift each other coins?
This setting is off by default because it is exploitable. Turning this on makes it so you can gift coins to other viewers. The reason this can be a bad thing is you have lots of chat going on and cannot focus on the gifting occurring, you may miss some viewers using alt accounts to earn more coins. It is highly recommend to be wary of viewers who only ever gift coins.

Only reward viewers who participate in chat?
If you turn this feature on, it will require everyone to send a message in chat to receive coins. This can be through voting, commands, or just a simple "hello". You are able to set how many minutes from being inactive until they will get 50% coins. There is also a minute setting for how long until they get no coins at all.
