I'm not certain, myself. I have a feeling it comes with like the type of forum, since you've already gotten this one set up - doesn't it have some kind of technical add ons or button layout functions to place here? Could search for some more info on it, maybe. But I suspect it fits in with the style & layout thing. With the blog aspect of the point system I suspect you'd have to build it in... somehow. *shrug* Beats me, I'm not a computer scientist, I'm a writer, so I wouldn't be able to help you there. I am just giving you what I know of the system from other forums.


'Course I could always log into one that has it and ask if its styled with the forum or they've built it into it... but eh. That would mean resurfacing up my old password for the other forum. Its worked remarkably well though and for me (its a 'I smite chu' feeling good) afterwards, if you have a good reason for something. Like I mentioned in the earlier posts, it would give this forum an original twist and I think it could work rather well here, there'd be less abuse of it, I think. Similarly, there's also a warning type system that I've seen. But I don't think that isn't needed here, because it feels (and is) a friendly community. Also, there's another suggestion in case you guys find the chatroom becoming too much (which probably isn't likely to happen at this stage, because you're still in the process of recruiting users here. But if it gets overly crowded and to reduce the "guests" that log into the chat... you could add a tag board. *shrug* the only downside to that is you'd probably have to refresh every so often, but it would solve the unknown guests, because I suspect you could put a function or something in where it says you have to log in or register to see the tag board. =) Just a few suggestions to keep noted. Sorry for long post. Bad habit
