(panting) Whew! I just checked and I'm 35K points from my next level. The site loves to throw it in my face constantly too. 7..........7.1..............................(somewhere out here is 7.2).
It's like playing World Of Tanks. You rank up fast on the lower levels but reaching the top can take years.
Thanks for the feedback... I just changed the "Recent Post Visitors" from showing level to showing location. We're evolving the site. The points have multiple purposes including giving more access to members who've been here a while and contributed.
