Not that I care, but how do members of this forum acquire their "points " ?
Macca: 33000 + 
1+1:16000+ 
Maxie : 24000 +
PT : 43000+
Carioca :9000 +

Me, Baghdad Bob only 3400 + and I have been a member for 10 years.

What am I doing wrong ? I want to get some fly buy points for my next trip to Albury.

From that, you'd say that points are loosely related to posts. The proportions are about the same, 4 points per three posts

Will BP ( you can get a cup of coffee or a reduction off your petrol there ) or Qantas take your points to reduce your airfare or are they just bragging rights on TBV ?
Since I started this thread how many points will I get ?

I randomly produced 35,000 points as many on TBV have many more. I was not referring specifically to any one contributor. If you really want to know just look them up.

From memory you get 1 point per post something like 50 or 80 more per new thread and maybe some points for other content.

Fiddlesticks has 40,947 points but has not posted since November 2018. PT has played him/her ? on a break with 43,129 points and counting, although I am surprised Second Chance has only a disappointing  21,152 points.

Maybe they only register quality posts plus some for participating, which is why Bob only has 3,565 in 10 years.

I'd say there is an extremely sophisticated algorithm in play, that assesses the merit of every post. Sadly, it has never seen a post it likes better than the base score allotted.

He is a Trumper/Abbott fanatic so everything he says should be taken with a grain of salt.

The Winx of posters has a secret.

He never accepts the will of any people. Only counts the leftie votes.

Still thinks Gough Whitlam is PM . and Bob Hawke deputy,

He is admired for his placid , pleasant ways , and his fuel line is Joe Biden for 2020.    Having run on an empty tank since Billy fell to Scomo.

I have been a member almost 10 years and I have 29 thousand and  some odds.  How does that work ?  Hell knows I am always on here posting away about stuff.  And how did Djebel get to be a premium ?  Confused

To get to "premium" you need to make 10,000 ambiguous comments.

Djebel was in the right place at the right time in a thread Mayor started and got a gong for a favorable post, Hard to argue it isn't deserved though.
