Turtle Points for Marlin!
« on: Apr 21, 2005, 07:10:25 AM »
I noticed yesterday that Marlin only has 13 turtle points, in my opinion this needs to be changed.  The points either come from catching turtles (we all know Marlin does not have time for that) or members can give points as they see fit.  My understanding is that the basis for giving points is if someone provides some helpful information, provides good advise or simply does something cool.  I would argue that everyone on this board should give Marlin at least one point for every Marlin product they own.  How about we show our support for Marlin and make sure that he is #1 in turtle points?

Its there any way to remove the block on the "karma" action?  Only one point can be given in 4 hours if the "Karma" action is enabled.

Marlin still only has 48 points as of today.  There are over 4,100 members on the board so I think that should be the minimum goal.

Yup, I set that 4 hour limit so that you can't just bump up someone's points like crazy all in a single seating. It'll have to come from multiple people, and that shows more love :gap:
