Points???

[rburke65]

Hi folks! Getting used to the new format and I just noticed ‘points‘ after my name. What are points and how did I get the ? Thanks, RB

Points? Not a clue!

What are "identities" ? (under the "privacy" options) ???

 

[NUTTSGT]

Points came with the new XF version of GJ. What do they mean, nothing really.

 

[Docbentley]

If you have points then you are not updated with the electronic ignition module.

 

[rburke65]

Aaah....now I understand...they are right by the condenser!

If our points drop below zero, we go on double secret probation.

 

[Ryan]

I have no idea what those points do… or mean….

 

[BlakeTheCarGuy]

I don’t know but they are cool. The reaction score is also cool just that way I can keep track of how many I have received and how many of each I have received. So far 1 love and 16 likes.

How many hates and likes do I have? Can you tell?

I have yet to see an angry emoji left on anyone’s post.

All I know is everything is made up and the points don't matter.

It’s all a simulation anyway… Am I right?

Points earn you demerits, demerits get you detention.......
Or expulsion........

 

[oldwino]

So points are kinda like a participation trophy then. If you exist you probably get some

It's a standard Xenforo ladder thing.
Like anything else in Xf can highly modified or disabled

Trophies​

Trophies add a light gamification element to your forum. They allow you to define certain thresholds and criteria for when a user is awarded a trophy and the associated points. The top trophy point earners are then displayed in the notable members list.

When defining a trophy, you will specify the number of points it is worth and the criteria that is required to receive it. Once a user meets that criteria, it will be automatically awarded. Note that once awarded, a trophy will not be revoked, even if the user no longer meets the criteria.

Deleting a trophy will remove the points from any user that has received it.

If you prefer not to use trophies, you may disable them using the option at the bottom of the trophy list

No bang his wife points?

 

[Wrench97]

The titles are fully customizable so if Ryan wants points for that it can be done

 

[Strouty]

Now I want to earn points and trophies, meaningless points and trophies!

 

[Strouty]

 

[CoogarXR]

Points? Surely this site runs an electronic ignition by now!

Sorry, I'll show myself out...

Just came across this thread while trying to figure out what "points" are. According to Ryan — zip.

But what about a "you ****?"

Those are just "feel good" thingabobs and generally leave more money in your pocket for future tool purchases.

Just wanted to see if it really was possible.
