Hi @Jason3249 - you get awarded points for how many posts you make, how many likes you give and receive etc. Points lead to trophies! We might do some more work on these at some point so that you get different ones for posting in different areas of the forum etc. It seemed like a good idea at the time
Strange people living in ponds distributing awards is no basis for a system of forumship! Power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some ... farcical aquatic award ceremony!
