For future reference (and maybe it's different where you live), you BORROW credits when you receive them and LOAN credits when you give them.

There's some language where the two words are the same, and determining what's meant is based entirely upon usage (there's another thread on the forums where that was brought up).

I think Snaithy's British though.

Yup, and yup. That's why I qualified it as I said it. I vaguely recalled that the British meaning varies from the American. The context is good enough here, but sometimes I get it backwards, like when someone just says "Achaea credits for Lusternian ones," and doesn't say which one they have or which they want...

I was confused also, but in some parts of the USA, people say "Borrow me" stuff, like "borrow me some credits"
