Well hello everyone, I'm brand new here and still working out navigating the site and have stumbled across some barriers in to topics I'm interested in because "My level is too low". Can anyone give me a general breakdown of how the point system works and maybe even why it was implemented? I have my thoughts on this but would like some feedback so i can progress and be a regular on this site with access to anything i find interesting. Thank you in advance.
Find a post that you like and add on to the idea with another post. Get into constructive discussions and avoid people who do not know how to debate. Avoid name callers and labellers. Healthy Skepticism is a great topic that most don't seem to understand but those that respond will have a healthy ear from which you get much in return. Slow and easy wins the race.
Just join the Conservative Athiest group and post something mildly approving of Barack Obama. Watch those points roll in! Well, until you get blocked...
Or you can join the Trump Pinata group and post something that praises Trump. That should help you get to the next level too.
@ATDayHiker Do both!
Just post & reply, it takes very little time to move out of the newbie category....or, you could read the very clear explanation(s) provided.......
