History

They were first introduced on June 20th, 2010 on forumotion, but did not serve a key purpose at the time. Later in December 2010, during V5 Dolphin, Glove Universe (Glove World at the time) was opened where users could finally spend their doubloons, thus finally giving them a purpose. They are displayed under how many posts you have and in your profile. You can use Doubloons to buy things in the store, and you can get them from posting or winning certain contests like SpongeBob Jeopardy!.

They went missing for a while on phpBB3 due to a site crash, but returned for Orca. Up until V11, doubloons were in full integration with ibEconomy. On the release of V11, MDPP remade the entire doubloons system by hand.
