I'm updating this post with current information since it's far to difficult to read or ask nicely in chat.  This first post won't make any sense in the thread due to the update, so I'll preserve the original content below the horizontal line below.
 

1. When your account is created, you are given 100 points.  Do with them what you will.  I'd suggest making a few posts and chatting a bit to bump those up, then play the stocks game to earn a few thousand points.  You could also ask for a  sponsorship.  There's a shit load of ways to earn points, so don't complain if you don't have any and get dropped.  This is your warning.
2. Your account will lose 2 points every day.  Once your account hits -100 (that's negative one hundred), your account will be point dropped.  THIS IS NOT A BAN AND NOT A DELETION.  Your account is still there, and you can still access the site as a guest.  
3. Every month, we send out a redemption email.  If your account is point dropped, you can reactivate your account and give yourself 200 points to get back up and running.
4. Sponsorship can restore point dropped accounts once the account is above -100 points.  The system takes care of this stuff nightly.  A sponsor restored account doesn't count against redemptions, so this is definitely a nifty way to reactivate dropped accounts.
5. If you donate at least $1 to the site, you'll get a bunch of points, and the 2 points per day system will stop running on your account.  That means unless you really do something to piss us off and get yourself banned, you'll have an account here forever.  You also get a fancy banner next to your name in the post lists, and you get an icon by your name nearly everwhere else.

But why would someone want to implement a points system like this?  Isn't this just being a dick?
We want activity and content.  We're not one of those bullshit forums that boasts a million fucking members.  Why?  Because having 100 active members but saying you've got a million is just bullshit.  It's an out right lie, and we're not going to go down like that.  If we wanted to, we could just create a fuck ton of bullshit accounts and lie our asses off, but we won't.  Sorry if we've got a higher standard of what a community is, but touting a million dead accounts just isn't our bag baby.

Here's the post before I came in and edited it. Hey there everyone! I've given everyone 100 points, and all new registrants will start off with 100 points. Why you may ask? Read on!

I spent a lot of time trying to find a way to promote activity, and came up with the points system. Since nearly everything you do accumulates points, and since everyone now starts with 100 points, and after days of planning and thought, I came up with an idea...

The old FlashCheats had around 74,000 members, and out of those, only ~5,500 actually transferred, since I didn't transfer 0 post accounts. Well, I don't want this site to wind up with an ass load of inactive accounts, so I've devised a plan that involves the points system.

Picture this. Every day, you lose 2 points. That means you can create an account and not do anything for 100 days!  Still, your account will eventually be deleted if you don't do anything.  How do you earn points you ask?  Just check out the points list! There's a handful of ways to earn points, plus if you donate at least $1, you're account will be around forever.

Anyway, I'm thinking this might just be a bad ass idea, and a great way to go to eliminate dead accounts.

I suppose this is enough for now. Let me know what you guys think! I'm not doing anything without a little /b/lackup.
