2 points: Daily login bonus


That's not very useful, because points are given to users who do something. If I just came to Armorgames to play, and I was logged in, it would be weird if I got two points for it.
1 point: Play a game that you havent played before


Could (Actually, it will) be abused: If you go to the all games page, and click on every single game, you could make over 1000 points that way. And there is no way of knowing if you really played the game, or just loaded the page and left two seconds later for the points.

As many mods and good users will tell you, the current point system is perfect. Okay, not really perfect, but it good because there aren't too many ways to make points, few ways to abuse it (Other than spamming) and you don't make too many points. If we added more, the list would over crowd and be hard to remember. And many of the suggested ways (Not just by you) are easily exploited and used to make easy points.

thats pretty cool supercoo222! but what i was thinking for the 1 point for playing a game, you could have a code, like at the end of the game once you beat it, and it would be pasted into a "new" section in the controll panel, you can only use that code once, and you cant give away the code, like make the code starred out when you try to post it on anything but the new controll panel thing, so thats how it wouldnt be abused. and you get the code once you beat newer game, not adding them to the old game cuz that would be unfair to people like firetail who has playd em all!

Oh, i love how people rip off others for ideas... Theone99 originally made that idea and made several threads for it, however it failed and never got through. But it would be a good idea-go make another thread for it.

Well, that wouldn't perfictlly work because you would have to BEAT the game- what if it was impossible??? However you could do a &quotlay for 15 minutes" one where if you play for 15 min. you get 1/2 points. (this would only happen once per game)

2 points: Daily login bonus


let's see... It wouldn't be that bad of an idea, but like unlimited said some might: 1. abuse it and login multiple times (AG is to lazy to make advanced code to stop that from happening) 2.some people would just log on to talk and get 2 points?? if this did happen i thinnk it might be better with 1 point or even none
however, maybe if you logged on 5 days straight you could get points

1 point: Play a game that you havent played before


oy, well think about it. you could get points way to easily as i said earlier, you can go to kong or make it so that there's about 2 points for playing for 15 minutes.

And in short, let me say this:
A long long long time ago, AG DID NOT HAVE A POINT SYSTEM!!!
yes it's true and no one carred, now people only care about points, nothing else. and that's why people made friends, so they could just get points off of them. Our point system is effichent.

Maybe a week and you get 3-5 points it would be hard for a week maybe 2 or 3 or even a month and you get 20 points for logging in all month and you don't get other points for the weeeks

I've said it before and I'll say it again:

If you are more concerned about the points than anything else, get the frolicking out of here.
