OK, here is how it works. You gain points by posting, starting threads, and viewing threads. You get 15 points for every thread started except for in the equipment forum and stick tech forum. You get 5 points per post, and 1 point everytime you view a new thread. When you put points in the bank, they eventually rack up interest. I dont know what the rate is, but ill try and find out. You can use these points to buy rewards. these rewards include username options, user title options, and much more.

How do you go about "stealing" points from someone (as I see this is an option), and why would that be there? Some jerk will come along and steal points from someone else, which isn't fair.

You get points by:
Starting a thread - 15 points
If someone posts in your thread - 5 points
If someone views your thread - 1 point
If you post - I think this one depends not sure
If you refer someone to this site - 100 points
If you win the lottery - Not sure
If someone donates points to you
If you steal points - Depends on how much you want to steal.

Thats all the ways I think.

You can only steal sometimes. Sometimes it will work, sometimes it will not. If you try to steal 1000 points, you need to point in 1000 points. If you get lucky, then you will get 2000 (yours and the person who you tried to steal from). If you are unlucky, then you will lose the 1000 points.

I personally think that is a horrible idea. Its basically encouraging people to make bajillions of crappy posts (someone by the name of Footballplayar should fess up to this) in order to get lots of points and have a nice, pretty, underlined and italicted(something like that, i forgot the name haha) name. Its pointless, and asks for bad posts/habits. I think the mods should be able to give out points as they please to outstanding members and such, and not have the point making to be up to us regular mortal member types.

Yes people do make crappy posts. The mods should be deleting these posts. They are useless and the more posts they have, the slower this site will go.

No. I was just saying that its a mods duty to delete posts. I know it can be hard at times. If it were not for the mods, this forum would be spammed up.
