Props to my DJ’s

“Props” are the currency we use for earning and showing respect among Blip.fm DJ’s. We start everyone out with 10 credits to give when you sign up. If you appreciate a particular DJ, show ‘em by giving them props. Each time you give a DJ props, it costs you one credit. If you want to increase your props score, there is only one way: by getting props from other DJ’s. There’s lots of ways to increase your credits, but for each props you get, you also get one credit.

How do I give props to a DJ I like?

Give props to any DJ by clicking on the thumbs up icon in the lower right hand corner of every Blip. You can give any DJ up to 3 props per day.

How do I get more credits to give to DJs I like?

You can accumulate more credits in a number of ways:
* By Blipping: 1 credit for every 10 times you Blip
* By inviting friends: 1 credit for every user you invite to join Blip.fm that signs up
* By being a great Blip.fm DJ: 1 credit each time props are given to you by another Blip DJ

How can I tell how many props a DJ has earned?

You can see how many props a DJ has earned by looking at their user profile; the number appears in the upper left hand corner of their profile picture.

How come my profile still shows 0 props; I thought you said I start with 10?

You start with 10 credits, not with a props score of 10. To increase the props score shown on your public profile, you must earn props from fellow Blip.fm DJ’s.

What’s the difference between “credits” and my “props score”?

Your “props score” is the number of props you’ve earned; this number should steadily increase over time as you gain respect from other DJ’s. “Credits” are like your Blip.fm currency; this number will go up and down over time depending on how you use them.

Can other users see how many credits I have to give away?

No. Other users can only see your props score, which appears in the upper left hand corner of your profile picture. Only you can see how many credits you have “in the bank” for you to give out.

What do I do with props?

roto  on May 15th, 2009

lessaek, you’re kidding, right? Did you read the page.

PROPS TO MA’ DJJJJJJJJJJJJ!

I’ve noticed that I lose credits for no apparent reason these days. For instance, I had 21 credits at a moment this evening. I refreshed the page and still has 21. I gave a prop to a DJ. Then suddenly I had 16 credits. Where did the other four go? This has been happening to me a lot lately.

junkdna  on May 31st, 2009

So what can we do with these besides circle jerk each other with them? Seems kinda pointless.

evilamy  on June 1st, 2009

Is there any chance of someone inventing “give hate?” Like, if someone blips Nickelback, I can give them virtual hate and the system knows to never play that song for me again? This would be very useful.

Better yet, there could be a 1-5 ratings system that would influence a “picks for you” page. OK, I’m thinking way too much about this.

HOW DO YOU “UNPROPS” A DJ? BECAUSE I ACCIDENTALLY GAVE 2 PROPS TO A DJ WHICH I SHOULD ONLY GIVE 1. PLEASE HELP ME. THANKS.

hafabebi  on June 19th, 2009

Somehow I’ve earned 18,446,744,079,551,593 credits. This doesn’t seem kosher. could you address this? Thanks!

When I search a song and blip it, it shows up with a x on far right side, why?

Denise McCuller-Salazar  on June 20th, 2009

This isn’t a prop to any dj but myself, not a pro, but also down for music since I was real young and have been recording my favorite songs ever since I was a teenager onto one compilation of my own! My song im hard-on these days is “Sex on Fire”- Kings of Leon (May be title Sex is on Fire? But anyway, I just loved it the very first time I heard it as with many great songs I’ve heard and I haven’t tired of it just yet. Its a bad ass song and I “feel” (which means my feelings of passion begin flowing through me as I imagine my own love and how their sex was on fire and it just fits) when I sing to it, it’s great!

Clarissa Paula  on June 21st, 2009

como faço para autorizar?

sunnflowergardens  on June 23rd, 2009

There’s a ‘add to my play list’ on each DJ’s song. Is it ok to hit that button to add to your list without giving a prop? Sometimes a person is without credits or nearly so can we put the song on our list without the prop? If we have no credits, and try to give a prop, it does not go through. I hope I haven’t done this wrong. I love this site and want to do things right. Computers are like something from another planet to me, so takes me a little while to put it together. sunnflowergardens

Hinamori  on June 24th, 2009

I don’t think I’m getting a credit for every prop I get. I have like..35 props and only about 11 credits and I haven’t given out that many props yet.

Question: how do I write a reply? I have received them but don’t know how to send them! Thanks.

cyntiarc  on July 24th, 2009

Por favor, não estou conseguindo mandar props para as músicas que eu gosto, vem a mensagem que não tenho: “You don’t have any credits left”
Gostaria de saber qual o problema com o meu blipfm?
Aguardo respostas.
Obrigada.

where does it go? I had 10???

BeccaPiano  on August 2nd, 2009

…just gave 3 props by mistake, instead of 1, to a song I like but not *3* props worth. Clicked once, it didn’t show anything or react, so I clicked again - twice. Oop. Is there any way to ‘undo’? (Just to undo 2 out of the 3, so I can give it *1* prop). I’d like to save giving ‘3 props’ for a song that makes me want to give it 3 props! Please help?

jazztrain1  on August 25th, 2009

I selected favorites when I set it up, but I was given no credits at all.

Anzicioco  on September 15th, 2009

Yeppa! I like this!
