Well, anyone can create a duplicate account to bump their Applaud points. And because of that, said individual's Applaud was lowered back down to the actual amount. Some people forget there's a database that tracks these things.

In fairness, me having more applaud points doesn't mean squat. I was the first one here so its only normal to have the most since there wasn't a whole lot of posters til the last month. However, there was a change in the duration time required to applaud another member which is what caused the problem. It was set so you could only applaud I believe 4 times a day, now its set something like two a minute or something. That makes for more applause to be spread around. Hopefully...

For the record, I will never care about "applaud points".

I do care; however, that the Packers are going to kick the Vikes arse in a few days.

+1.. well stated.

It's meant to be just a little added bonus for members. But the last time I heard someone say " I don't care about Applaud points, they went on a rampage of stupidity and immaturity when their total wasn't what they felt it should be.

I know you're better than that and are true to your word. We've had our fair share of discussions in the past. 🙂

I agree with the first part ND....I corrected the second part :pottytrain1:

I think we should start a ban the Gnome chant...
