    Not exactly sure how it works, sorry. YOu can get 40 points every 12 hours. I'd guess that when you get your first point, 12 hours after that, the first one is cancelled out, and you can get another one in its place.

    Don't worry about points. If you're active, helpful and nice, you'll get enough to buy what you want ;)

    .....Inflation is the act of increasing the amount of money needed for things, because the money amount has increased (such as the ammount of dollars) yet the amount of total wealth has not. This is nothing like inflation. This is more along the lines of keeping the forums more active by offering people things for posting.

    yes, there is some spam but by the same token there are a lot of people trying to get the points who actually put some thought into the post they are adding to the boards

    If you posted in sections that add no points, that might be the cause. Even though they add no points, it's still a post. So it subtracts the amount of posts left to get points for. At least this is my guess.

    Well...u kinda on the right track but let me say this again Lets say i started my first post that = 1 point. 12 hours later im finished with all my points so now i guess i have 40. Expon says u can gain 40 points every 24 hours...Does that mean the 24 hours starts when u ended ur points gained or in the beggining it starts the 24 hour point thingy

    Just wait 24 hours and see if it still refuses to give you points. If so, PM expon asking for help. The same thing happened to me.

    I wonder if you post more if it adversly effects your points? I post a lot and I don't always get points but I think I am not getting as many points than if I actually planned it out
