I was up to over a hundred points of score, and now im back down to 20, but my post and comments still have the same number of likes?

    Its a harmless bit of gamification that I like. Watching a number slowly climb as I interact and make quality post helps keep me motivated. My ego isn’t tied to internet points. Its not earth shattering to me to lose them, just a bit wierd. Please get off your high horse, I know this isn’t reddit.

      I agree with you. Also, those numbers just exist and some can just ignore them and some can’t/won’t. So it is up to user to give it a meaning.

      I get it, fwiw.

      Something in my lizard brain feeds me serotonin when the number climbs.
