Hmph you seem to be talking about it. Why should inept people be excluding from points? You seem to have forgotten your own advice as you once told somebody else that XP really does not mean anything.

XP whoring seems to at least make people put some effort into their posts.

Newsflash: You will find this on any site that has XP and or levels. I know of a game site that has them and people try anything to get the highest level as fast as possible. Don't know why; yet they do it.

Here is a simple thing to consider. If you see XP talk, then why not ignore the post?

Finally, how will overhalling the site fix anything. It is fine as it is.

It all depends on how you use it.

See you in a year for your next complaint.
