[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] MrSpinkleswirth Your mother would...be friends...with my mother....and they'd go out for tea or something....yeah. i just wonder how the system works in judging a positive post....what if i'm just joshing around with a friend of mine, and happen to make a few negative posts that he would react to positively? eh. whatever. i don't really care about the "system" anyways. i could stay member forever and not give a damn. all i see is a fancy colored hat.[/quote] Most likely it's more of a "lack of negative points" rather than "abundance of positive points". It very likely keeps track of how many posts per day, and then looks at how many bans/warnings you've had. Lots of posts with no warnings or bans means you're a positive poster. That would be my guess. It makes sense. :) Although it's probably far more complex.
