5 days seems kind of small, I think 7 might be a better number, a whole week worth :) Just my opinion though.

I also saw your Facebook comment asking the timelock to be changed from 5 to 7 days. I think maybe you're confused about what the timelock does. The timelock prevents you from moving the star again for a certain amount of time. The idea of transfers is to allow you to change where are stars are in use, with the point of the timelock being to limit this somewhat to prevent it from being abused. bots2 used a 5 day timelock for temp transfers as well and just in case it's not clear from this, a 7 day timelock would give you, the star owner, *less* freedom.

So 5 days between transfers? Ok thanks for the info.

Yep and it's per star.

Ok, thanks for the confirmation.

Does this rule mainly effect people with larger star numbers? I was just thinking about this earlier. With 1 star it takes 6 days to order an item, if you transfer the star before the 6th day does the item order still process?

You need at least 1 star to be able to collect the order.

Iirc, in bots2 you didn't need any stars to collect the order, why the change?

So you can't use the stars on two accounts at the same time of course. Or at least reap the benefits of them at the same time that is.

But if you had 10 stars on one account, forcing you to keep one star on that account just to collect the item you ordered doesn't seem like much or a restriction.

That's with 10 stars though. I'm not sure if losing those stars makes the order take the 1 star length, or the 10 star length. But either way, it's still somewhat of a restriction but I suppose you could call it a loophole.

That's just how I ended up writing it. It's somewhat unrestrictive in that it only requires you that you have *a* star rather than the number of stars needed for the order level to be able to collect the order.
