This is going to look like a game... The challenge is to be as active as possible!

I must admit I really like this idea. I'm sure it will be slightly abused for the first little while but once everyone gets used to it that shouldn't be a problem anymore. And yes, being a RPG'er doesn't hurt either :)

hey Gav i got an idea

what if HWC implemented something where say if someone was very helpful then you can give them an extra point or something
kind of like a rating system just no negative ratings...


just an idea because if someone helps someone else out IMO it should be worth more then just posting your opinion (like this post) lol
