Getting credits for having an account since 2004 is worthless, getting credits for posting on threads and voting on polls is what counts.

Agreed. All that fraction stuff and equations will only make things complex. Tenure is one thing, but it wouldn't exactly be fair to make the rich richer. Personally I would benefit from this greatly, Gallcomp too, considering that we both signed up in 2004. It is just not right.

I don't see it being too fair that those who signed up long ago don't get credit for what they've done either. Not that it would give me much. . . -_-; My laziness prevented me from coming on for about a week now. . .

I think the credit system is good though. It's very intuitive if I do say so Dragon Ball.

I joined in 2004 and think it is completely fair, I mean who needs creds just for tenure? Activity is what counts! And if you whine about tenture then it just means you have activity issues :hattip:

I would be a hypocrite if I complained about tenure. . . I hate when people get things for tenure and if I got anything for tenure I would just accept it probably. I'm not to good of a person for that.

Okay, so you are against it and at the same time you think is not fair not to get credits for been here for long time. Kinda confusing to have two different approaches on the same subject.

Exactly why I would be a hypocrite. I don't want to take the points but if they were offered I might take them. . . Gah! I hate my brain! That's it I would flip a coin! Heads take. Tails don't. . . It landed on tails. . .

I may have missed it, if someone already mentioned it, sorry.

What about the trivia contests? I just took part in my first one, and it was fun, it got me thinking. I even managed to get 3 correct answers. Maybe we could get points for the correct answers, not many, but some.
