They like easy AP

As long as they dont start charging for content I couldnt care less how many points someone has. You will always get people that spam for the points.

My question is: if you guys don't like it when people spam for the points, and you say you don't care about points, aren't you being hypocritical?

My opinion is that if you want AP you must word for them...you can't earn point gratis or simply!

Reviver.

There as been people complaining about spam in the moderator thread around here and so I think this is a good suggestion.

Please continue.

Oh and this has a moderator saying it is a good idea.

This is a better idea then taking away AP all together.

Leo, no necroing please. It kaes the world sad.

Taking away AP from profile commenting would promote typing out long conversations and using 3rd-party chatrooms for IM'ing. I don't support getting points for commenting/chatting on profiles, as this is kind of silly. I realize that the staff put thought into how the AP system worked, and I respect that. Perhaps this and others are how they "hooked" members into AG? Afterall, getting points for various reasons is how you have fun on this site. Should it be for commenting and pressing a button? Not really :-/

I think that if the staff were to seperate the AP point system a little bit.

But I think it would be easier to spot the spammers if we were to have it like this.

i don't think it should, as it encourages interactions between users. while yes, i do realize that it is abused a lot, especially in some ghost accounts, but isn't every other way to get AP abused to a certain amount, like spamming on fporum posts and just clicking the rating icon, regardless whether you've even played the game or think it deserves that rating?

isnt writing a comment apply too all comments? including profiles, games, and a third thing that i cant think of.

This should be done, but I can't see right away.

wat u get points for ppl posting on profiles holy wow thats interesting never saw that before or i guess i dont barly have messages to even notice i get points for it

Nah, I don't agree with this. Armor points is like experience. .... You gained that experience by talking to people. You get what I mean?
