New points for chat room posts::: Why ANY points? I understand the basic premise of having "members" prove their interest.

But, do you think, and is there any data, to support the inferred thesis that agnostic.com is attracting the type of people who really give a shit about points?

Are these the types of humans you, as owners/admins, most interested in as "members?"

Please tell us now so we can move on.

When the site was new, it was a way to encourage posts by the small amount of members. No it is a way to get a cool tshirt & pen!

Some people like the game of points. Some don't. Some don't care.

Like it? Go for it.
Hate it? Don't pay attention to it.
Don't care? Congratulations! You've discovered the secret of not giving your emotional power to things that don't matter.

This point system causes many point chasers to post a lot of meme and youtube stuff in place of serious OR humorous original articulations of ideas. It clutters the posting landscape with lots of marginally meaninful facebook junk.

They want to give away t shirts, and needed a way to decide who gets one.

My take: In order to get some more action in the chat room forums, which it seems clear no one is interested in, we are going to reward participants with level points.

Not to be too shitty: Please get some real adults involved in deciding these types of in community marketing issues.

I think your condescending criticism should have been sent in a private message to @admin. Whoever Admin is, he/she does a LOT, at great expense, for us to have this space. His or her motive matters not to me, and even though I don't use the chat rooms, I appreciate every single improvement or attempt at improvement of this site and its features.
