Thanks everyone for theTips and advice. MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR YOU ALL. It was a rough year for me.. but.. as my old friend John says;;; STICK AROUND STEVE. IT GETS BETTER.

Your points will add up quickly if you engage... respond to posts, complete your profile. Levels 2-6 are easily attainable, after that it takes a lot more effort. Welcome to the site.

Hi & welcome! Points for everyone!

OMG. More competition for the points. The holy grail of level 10 lies beyond the reach of mere mortals. You need to work for sainthood to achieve that, but level 2? Level 2 is within reach of the least of us. Grovel, newbie, and before you know it you will have reached level 3. Beyond that you are advised to begin working on sainthood or all is lost. Lost, I tell you. All. Is. Lost.
