Points SystemSo, after a week (well, actually longer. I confess, I forgot all about it) the result came back that a points system should replace the reputation, though you are still able to give people reputation, it will show up on your posts as 'points' instead. For the time being, reputation can be seen on your profile (though this is intended to be intended for balancing purposes and eventually vanish altogether). Ok, so how do you gain points?
Posting - One point per post.
Making a new thread - one point per thread, except in the Writers Den, Debaters Den or Music News, which yields five.
Reputation - 25 points per reputation point.
And the best bit? If someone bugs me I can add or take away points on whim
EDIT: And whilst I was at it I got rid of that useless frickin 'Thanks' button.
