One thing that I have noticed is that at the beginning of a new month the leaderboard for points is reset. Now I have known that for awhile, but the thing about it is that within a few days, people are already at like 1,000 1,500 ect. I think that is alittle high for points in just a few days. Im pretty sure that they are spamming on games and stuff. But thats just what I think.

Do you think that it gets too high too fast?

How many times has this been said? That leaderboard is very faulty, and has never worked 100% It is probably a glitch, or it just never reset from last month.

Most likely they are spamming and are usually brought down and possibly even banned.

Yes it does, but this is also one of the key places to check for spammers. When people shoot up in points like that, we make sure to look at their commenting practices, and delete any spam that is there.

It never rally does work. That's true, but it is reset. I check it everyday to see what's going on.

What do you mean by commenting practices? I think I get the base word but not the word itself :P

All I am saying is that we review their commenting, and delete spam if it is found.
