Splitting system messages out of the modal was right for payout receipts,
but it would have silenced two that a member genuinely loses money by
ignoring:
- "@someone is trying to buy. Link your wallet so it pays you" — a sale
is blocked right now, and the referral is lost permanently once it
routes to someone else.
- "You missed 43 POL on InstantAdPay" — a payout passed them by, and the
message explains exactly how to stop the next one doing the same.
So the dividing line is not system-versus-human, it is "does this need you
to do something". Those two become kind 'alert' and still interrupt; the
receipts stay kind 'notice' and stay in the inbox.
The modal no longer credits an alert to a person either. It was saying "A
message from @martbost" over machine-generated text, because system mail
is sent by member 1 at ADMIN_EMAIL. Alerts now read "Action needed on your
account".
Also reclassified "X is now in your line for good" as a notice — it is
good news about a referral the member gained, with nothing at stake.
qa/messages-notice.mjs now covers both lanes: 14 checks, including that an
alert interrupts and a flood of 25 receipts does not.

Marty hit this viewing daily ads: a popup after every single return to
the dashboard, each one a different payout notice.
Two causes, both fixed.
The channel was shared. "You just got paid 40.8923 POL" and "Welcome to
my line, here are your first three moves" were stored identically, as
kind 'broadcast' — the kind the sign-in modal is meant to interrupt for.
Dismissing one just promoted the next unread notice, so a backlog became
a carousel. System messages are now kind 'notice': they land in the
inbox, count toward its badge, and never pop. Only a message a person
actually wrote can interrupt.
The modal also had no memory. loadDashboard() runs on far more than
sign-in — after every ad view, campaign edit and chat close — and it
re-popped each time. It now shows at most once per page load and never
twice for the same message.
The 79 existing machine-generated rows are retagged by a migration in
ensureSchema, 15 of them unread and currently popping. Matched on
subject rather than sender on purpose: these come from member 1 at
ADMIN_EMAIL, which is also Marty's own member address, so his genuine
broadcasts sit under the same sender and must be left alone. Verified
against the live data first — "Credits returned: a counting error on our
side" and the broken-banner note are his, and stay as broadcasts.
qa/messages-notice.mjs covers it: a flood of 25 notices produces no
interruption, the human message still does, and chat stays in its own
lane. Member walk clean.

Third syndication rail. The first two send impressions; this one sends
clicks — a real person picks the offer off the offerwall, goes to the
member's link, and has to stay the dwell time before anyone is paid.
Two things it does that the other rails can't:
- It carries geo-targeted campaigns. DripOffers filters on an explicit
country list, so a campaign aimed at Tier 1 finally reaches an outside
audience instead of staying on our own site. Tier-3-only campaigns are
skipped rather than quietly sent worldwide, because an inclusion list
can't express "everywhere except the other tiers" and widening it would
deliver exactly the traffic the owner chose to exclude.
- Delivery is counted, not derived. It reads rows from the platform's
permanent click ledger. It never computes delivery as ordered minus
remaining, and pausing never zeroes remaining — that pair is what
charged members for impressions that never ran on Network Ad Space.
Also fixes two live bugs found while wiring it: the AdRevLinks pause was
nested inside the Network Ad Space check in both the end sweep and
setStatus, so with NAS switched off an ended or paused campaign kept
running on AdRevLinks. Each rail is now checked on its own.
Caps: 1,000 credits minimum, 10,000 clicks maximum per campaign. Not for
cost — Marty owns the platform and these placements are free — but because
the whole site delivers around 2,700 clicks a day, and one campaign
booking 50,000 would sit in the list for weeks.
Inert unless DRIPOFFERS_BRIDGE_URL and _KEY are set. 26 checks green
against the live endpoint; member walk clean.

Hugh earned a 10-credit sign-in bonus, then bought a 280-credit extension; earned credits spend
first, so Earned read 0 and the bonus looked lost. There was no record a member could check.
Now every real credit movement writes a credit_log row (JSON store in file mode): welcome, sign-in
bonus with streak, daily claim, inbox reads, video watches, verified visits, milestone/leaderboard
bonuses, partner codes, admin/team grants, AI Copy Engine charges + refunds, flat buys (featured
run, extension, visit pack, more visits), login-ad days, and metered delivery rolled up per
campaign per day; on-chain purchased-credit spends are marked. GET /api/my/credits/activity;
dashboard shows the last 40 under Campaigns (also when there are no campaigns) with a link from
Earn credits. Chatbot canned answer + AI prompt updated; my.js tag bumped.

from a join link ?promo=CODE (cookie, applied at signup) or the Overview box

free account is created with the pre-checked opt-in; ticker every 10 min;

API access still works. Member area shows an Admin link for that email.

- Video watch-to-earn: a member can no longer re-earn from the same video the
same day. New video_seen table (dual-mode); serveVideo excludes today's
already-watched videos; videowatch double-checks before crediting.
- Featured card: equal top/bottom margin (no longer touches the stat cards) and
a gold border on the card + the rotating link.

- Ad reporting (auto-approved ads need a safety valve): new reports.js store
(dual-mode) + ad_reports table + POST /api/report-ad; a "⚠ report" control on
served ad slots opens a reason prompt and notifies the admin by email
(siteConfig.adminEmail / ADMIN_EMAIL).
- Featured links now show ONE link at a time and cycle (true rotation), instead
of listing all links at once.
- Campaign form now clears EVERY field on submit (target/creative/title/etc.).
A leftover target URL was carrying into the next campaign — the same reason a
video short was saved with the wrong (massifly) CTA target.

Real people, not numbers: usernames (unique, profile pane to set them),
shown across the ledger, activity, rosters, and the sidebar chip; vanity
invite links (/join/<username>) with late chain binding intact. Promo tools
pane ships Branded Voice share posts and an email swipe personalized with
each member's link. The earn viewer excludes a member's own campaigns, so
nobody earns from their own spend. Back office gains the cyan/violet/amber
accent family over the green base. Three house campaigns seeded so every
surface shows live inventory. Assets v=20260905i.

Members earn credits by attention (spec 8b): daily 5-ad set with dwell
timing and a too-fast guard, then a claimable daily batch. Earned credits
now FUND campaigns: banner/text budgets draw earned-first (free members can
advertise on welcome credits alone), purchased credits and the on-chain
burn queue only cover the remainder; earned-only campaigns pause when the
pool runs dry. New Earn credits section in the member menu with the viewer.
Explorer links degrade gracefully for the private chain (contract page
points at the audited Amoy verification). Site flipped to the anvil
rehearsal chain at rpc.instantadpay.com: unlimited test POL, no more
faucets. E2E: welcome->views->claim->earned-funded campaign->charged
serving, all green. Assets v=20260905d.

Every account gets welcomeCredits (25, rate-card configurable) via an
idempotent lazy grant on dashboard load, so existing members receive theirs
retroactively. earned_credits table with JSON fallback; Overview stat shows
the purchased/welcome split. Chatbot facts and canned answers synced;
homepage free-membership list mentions the welcome batch. Rate card
promoted from placeholder to decided and persisted in the volume.
Spending integration for the earned pool is the next engine build.

Coolify MySQL (instantadpay-db) via DATABASE_URL; db.js bootstraps schema
and one-time imports the volume JSON. accounts/auth/ads are dual-mode: the
MySQL path uses guarded UPDATEs for the concurrent ad-serving hot path;
without DATABASE_URL the JSON stores remain (local dev). All data functions
async; server boots through db.init. Chain index stays a file: it is a
rebuildable cache of the blockchain, which remains the money truth.
