Forum Experience - Keep it or Remove it?

To those wondering, I'm referring to the portion in postbit that tracks your forum experience points.

What do you of this add-on? Has it improved your browsing/posting experience? Or do you simply ignore it and think its useless? Cast your votes in the poll please.

Cheers,
Sam

Get rid of it.

It'd be one thing if it were accurate, but it's pretty much useless. Where's checkov? I'm sure he'd have a few things to say on this topic.



I kinda like how strictlygs does it on their site

I'd get rid of it, seems hard to tell why someone w/ 200 posts has the same points that someone w/ 2000 posts has. I know things like join date count for a lot but in the end it's really about the content of the forum and in that regard this site is superb!
I like the "thanks" counter over on G35driver, that would be a decent add-on I think.
Keep up the great job guys!

... and it's gone!!!

Goodbye Experience system. Thanks to the very small handful of you to actually weigh in by posting your thoughts and bother voting in the poll. Thanks to G37Sam for putting it out there to take member input on the subject. Thanks IB Nolan for doing away with Experience in favor of a "thanks" counter instead.

More positive changes are coming.

If he decides to return, we'll just craft some new way to single him out individually for persecution. The whole system was specifically devised as just another way for The Man to keep him down.

What a nice surprise. I just found out today that the experience points experiment is over. In that I might have had a hand in it, I’d be glad to return now as an active member. And perhaps some of you will see that this old man, albeit not always agreeing with the younger set, still has something to contribute.
