Don’t worry too much about points. If you participate in discussions, and make a few posts you’ll have enough points to do anything very quickly. The point system is mostly just a deterrent to scammers. The main focus of the site is just hosting discussions, ostensibly about living the godless life, but in practice, about anything and everything.

After you get to I forget what level, things go faster and you can forget the whole point thing. Once one gets up there it takes forever to get anywhere. If you have an interest that is not mentioned you can start a group.

Some times some one will get a sarcastic streak and the fun will begin. It can be fun, and a waste of time, to figure out who the idiots are and have fun with them. Do not take anything seriously and have fun.

This is a website for nonreligious people. Most of us are politically left. There is a lot of bickering. Sometimes it is necessary and deserved. Hope you can make good use of your time here.

Don't forget religious apologetics. You'll run into a decent amount of that here, too. It's probably best to just ignore those people because they essentially behave like trolls. They don't care if you prove them wrong or what you say, they'll just keep spewing the exact same shit over and over and over. Some of them will block you if they see you as a threat to their plan of trying to re-indoctrinate people that have abandoned religion.

Just block the bickerers, like this weirdo that's all about the electric universe pseudoscience bull shit. He just wouldn't stop, so he's eternally blocked, and I'm fine with it.

No, that’s about it… joking and bickering.

Enjoy!
