High Lord Tolkien/User 4059,

You've met all the criteria for advanced usage. I'm happy to give you 4,100 points. You're now in the lead!


More point options:

Telling someone their topic belongs in the Galley - 400 points
Telling someone they've double-posted - 500 points

Also: ass kissing or donkey kissing is NOT logical or a topic of substance. Minus 1000 points for anybody whom mentioned "ass." We're trying to educate kids here, not turn them into binge drinking Satanists.

Just mentioning the Galley doesn't count?

:(

Good one, Cj!!

:twisted:

Ooo! May I suggest a method of getting points? How about 400 points each time you direct someone to the Plains if they want a ranyhyn? If that works, I've got 1200 or so points this week alone!!

Do you get pints for telling someone a post or thread is pointless, ^ like the post above me or the Mat Boner thread in sports?

Looks like I've already got negative points. This makes me negative toward this. That and the fact that Lord Foul just wants yes-men.

So the advantage, then, of being an advanced user/community leader is...more work. Gee, now *there's* an incentive.

Yeah....look at Elvis, Jimi, Janis, Sid, Jim.....umm...hell, just look at so many rock and/or roll gods. At least the dead ones that didn't die by plane crash. Let's throw Belushi, and....y'know....ummm...I think I've made my point.
