Amped Points are earned for posting, making threads, and adding polls. You will earn 2 points per reply as well as 4 points for every thread made. The catch is that only posts that are 40 characters long will earn points. So simply posting things like "WOW amazing" will not earn anything.

Also there are several forums that do not earn points. The anything forum, help forum, and requests forum will not earn points. This is because these forums are not really discussion forums, and it is easy to spam to get a lot of points in these forums.

User reviews will still earn 15+ points, but there are new rules for them which can be read at
http://www.ampedasia.com/forums/new-rule...-5504.html

Amped Points Can Be Taken Away - This will occur in the case of spam/double posts. Any meaningless posts will result in point deductions. A penalty of a minimum 5 points will be taken away in the case of this. More point penalties will be assessed later.

How do i get Amped Points?

Well, even though amped points have cool uses, I post because its fun, the points are a reward. Not like most people post just for points. That kinda gives me a vibe that somethings you say might not be true. Of course, everyone who cares tries to get as many as possible. It's just that I doubt anyone would go so far just to earn points.

cool that would be good

This seems very exciting but over whelming. Is a post equal to a question or a comment? I got into this site to download the Sound of Music dance at the Central Station but I am now curious about this site.

it would make it easier to have a short mention under the threads that this or that thread will not earn any points. other than that, your post has been most helpful, so thanks
