On the Top Bar, just to the right of your name is a down arrow. If you hover over that arrow, it brings up helpful information, including Support.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>The points here are for how many people read and like what you say, agree with you or not, etc.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>To most nothing, to some on RP life it self it would seem. The point system is both a feedback system for you and a way for others to judge your posted content.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>The only practical use of points that I have seen is to keep people from rating others until they learn the ropes and get the minimum number of points. <br /><br />It keeps people from bringing any flaming habits here from other social network sites - we operate on a more respectful plane here as a rule.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I don't know about y'all but, my NCOER has a quantifiable bullet of:<br /><br />o 70 out of 33,000 SFCs on RallyPoint<br /><br />I guess you can say things are getting pretty serious.
