About Designer group credits or points..

[Roguerie]

This isn't about the group limit although I am truly glad that there is no longer a reduction in the group amount for basic members. My lil bank can't afford premium yet.

I often leave one or two of my favorite designer/creator groups (temporarily) in order to join another when there is a gift giveaway or a specific sale in another creator group. By doing so, do I lose my linden credits or points accumulated ? I am just curious cause I can't quite tell ?

Maybe.  But not really, probably.

Those credits and L$ spent totals are all saved outside of Linden Lab groups.  In a nut shell, there is a script running that checks if you are a member when you buy something and if so it does whatever it does to its database to keep track of you.  Leaving the group temporarily will most likely NOT trigger that script in any way.  Once you rejoin the group it will continue to act as normal with  all its saved data about you.

But just to be sure, don't buy anything from that store until you are back in the group again.

Aah well I hope you're right lol 'cause I'm an impulsive buyer and it'd be awful if I lost all those accumulated points. Thanks

Highly doubtful, you lost them but some stores let you check somewhere your total.

The points are stored in a terminal that does not belong to the group.
