Just wondering What does it mean by "bank"? Thanks so much in advance!

If you mean the bank under "Points", it is another place to put your points where they will earn interest. You earn points when you post, or when people donate them to you. The points can be used to give "Gifts" to other members --- gifts like that blue paw or the sun under the word "Donate" . You can also buy yourself ribbons using the points --- these things can be found in the vbPlaza Menu in the middle/top of the screen.

Hi there -- "Bank" is part of the vbPlaza point system. Look on the menu bar near the top of the page, and you'll see "vbPlaza Menu". You get points for posting, for starting threads, and in assorted other situations. They are like virtual money. So you can have them "in your hand" or "in the bank", just as you can real money. In the bank, they earn interest, but you have to take them out of the bank to "spend" them. You can buy awareness ribbons for yourself, "gifts" for yourself or others (those little icons you see at the bottom of that section; you can donate points to others; etc. etc. There are a couple of useful stickied threads at the top of this forum to give you more details about what you can do, and how...
