What is with the points?
I just saw I earned 32 points for one of my posts. I did not notice this feature before. What are the points for? Do I win some famous prizes like a date with a TS Hung Angel of my choice?

I just noticed that myself, and wondered if they had been there all along and I was simply too daft to see them, lol. One thing's for sure, you don't accumulate them according to the number of posts you've made (I'm at 883 posts and only 34 points prior to this one, seems a little odd).

Guys, ever watch Whose Line Is It Anyway ? Well, my guess is that's how the points are distributed in here. Got that ?!

Not sure what they're for either, but I like the idea. Anything to make posting from work more interesting

Well, I max'ed out when I hit 240 points; made one more post (did several in a row for the Arbian Nights photos thread of photos I took at the party) and got the warning and wondered if it meant I had reached a limit on number of posts, but it only meant that I got no more points.
So what do I do with the points? Are they like frequent flyer points? Get so many points and certain select escorts or websites will provide a discount?
Laura, lovely new avatar photo!
