How about if a Mod keeps reads a thread with a high amount of popularity and posts, they can give as many points as they think nessicary. (For coming up with such a crowd pleaser, like destroy bob, for instance)

This is foil proof because a Mod can check if the maker puts up way to much posts.

and say, you get more points the more varity of people (a thread with only 4 people posting on it wouldn't get as much as 10 people posting on a thread)

Tell me what you think.

this is cool..but it has to make up of posts that arnt short so theres no spamming..and yes mods can check that and i dont think many people would write 20 posts on 50 accounts!

Easy way to get around this. Make multiple accounts and post. Just be happy with the ways to get Armor Points. Armor Games can't please you all the time people.

I no, i dont really care about what ag does, it's just to see what people think, and maybe ag can make a system where you can't make multiple accounts.

Skater, this site is all about points. Everything is just rotating around what we call AP.

I'm getting annoyed about all the people saying "OMG THIS SITE ISN'T ABOUT POINTS" and also its OK for people to come up with ideas,but a majority of them usually don't work.Also if they wanted to do this.I think they can give people merits for certain posts in the forums.So if they wanted this.They could easily give people merits for their first post in the popular thread.I think its just about that simple.Also Skater Kid Who Pwns.Sorry,but you are posting the same thing in all caps on multiple threads,and it is not very constructive to the topic.So could you stop.I consider it almost spamful at best.At least stop saying it in all caps.Thank you ahead of time.

Must it always go back to spam?

Actually, I thought of this idea a while back, and it seems to me that a mod would be smart enough to tell whether it was the same five people posting again and again. I think that you people need to stop putting down ideas with the "It will cause spam" reason, it's really getting annoying, and if you people think it's such a problem, FIND A WAY TO FIX IT, don't just keep talking about how things will cause spam.

Anyway, this idea is good. Mods can spot when it's just the same people posting over and over again.

I beleive the points are mostly there just to show how active each user is. Realy, I don't see the need for more ways to gain points, the system on AG seems to be working pretty well alone.

Anyways a lot of big threads are full of people having normal conversations back and fourth and such. One person replying to another person. This is how you get very big threads with posts from only a handful of users. I do not think points should be awarded for threads just because they are popular.
