Not sure what's happening to the points system. They stopped offering the features though... so I don't think you can use your points to bold your name or colour your name anymore...

I'd suggest contacting Chad about it; I'm not sure what this server can do that the other couldn't and vice versa so he's your best bet.

I have updated the Reward Centre page so it explains things a bit better and I've added a button to access the reward centre from your user control panel

You basically get to use your points as a fun way of rewarding active users who are on the site a lot to do cool things with their account... or attempt to 'steal' points from others.

Enjoy

I'm not sure if I'm just doing something wrong, but I can't seem to buy anything from the reward center.

Yeah, it doesn't seem to work. I'm sure Chad will fix it though.

Yup, it's a no-go. I can view everything perfectly, but when I want to perform an action nothing shows up.

Just give it some time. Is it really that important for the functionality of the forum? I think there are more important things right now, like the calendar so that members can see the events for the summer. Everything will be fixed eventually, just give it some time

What if I really want to steal points from lorend? Sure I failed once before, but I'm sure I'll succeed the next time!

Hmm, I was just letting Chad or whoever know specifically what was wrong since I'm sure, as you said, that they aren't going to leave it like that.
