GAME BEHAVIOR BONDS
Computer-implemented methods and systems for processing of behavior bonds are provided. An example method comprises coding bond rules for a platform or specific application or contest; registering a user with a platform, application or contest to create the necessary user data; calculating which behavior rules the user must abide, based on the user data and Bond rules; receiving, from administrators, leaders, other users, applications or systems, information related to user behavior for any current behavior bonds; updating, based on user actions and reports the then current user behavior bonds status, deducting penalties as necessary; displaying the behavior bonds as necessary and disbursing any forfeited behavior bonds.
1 . A computer implemented method for processing behavior bonds, the method comprising the steps of:
setting bond rules for one of a platform, specific application, contest or game;
registering a user with one of the platform, application, contest or game to create user data;
determining which behavior rules the user must follow, based on the user data and bond rules;
receiving, from behavior monitoring sources, information related to user behavior for any current behavior bonds;
updating, based on user actions and reports, the current user behavior bonds status, deducting penalties as necessary;
displaying the behavior bonds remaining; and
disbursing any forfeited behavior bonds.
2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the user deposits a bond into an escrow account.
3 . The method according to claim 1 , further comprising the step of determining the number of rule violations for each user and display thereof.
4 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein forfeited bonds are shared among all users without violations.
5 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein forfeited bonds are dispersed as a prize.
6 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the bond is used to grant additional privileges to the user.
7 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the bond is associated with virtual objects.
8 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein if a violation is determined, warning the user about the violation.
9 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein if a non serious violation is determined, reducing the amount of the bond refunded to the user.
10 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein if a serious violation is determined, forfeiting the entire amount of the bond by the user.
11 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions, which when executed by one or more processors, perform the following operations:
setting bond rules for one of a platform, specific application, contest or game;
registering a user with one of the platform, application, contest or game to create user data;
determining which behavior rules the user must follow, based on the user data and bond rules;
receiving, from behavior monitoring sources, information related to user behavior for any current behavior bonds;
updating, based on user actions and reports, the current user behavior bonds status, deducting penalties as necessary;
displaying the behavior bonds remaining; and
disbursing any forfeited behavior bonds.
12 . The method according to claim 11 , wherein the user deposits a bond into an escrow account.
13 . The method according to claim 11 , further comprising the step of determining the number of rule violations for each user and display thereof.
14 . The method according to claim 11 , wherein forfeited bonds are shared among all users without violations.
15 . The method according to claim 11 , wherein forfeited bonds are dispersed as a prize.
16 . The method according to claim 11 , wherein the bond is used to grant additional privileges to the user.
17 . The method according to claim 11 , wherein the bond is associated with virtual objects.
18 . The method according to claim 11 , wherein if a violation is determined, warning the user about the violation.
19 . The method according to claim 11 , wherein if a non serious violation is determined, reducing the amount of the bond refunded to the user.
20 . The method according to claim 11 , wherein if a serious violation is determined, forfeiting the entire amount of the bond by the user.
