    So who misses the RUL points system?

    So RULers I'm sure a good few of you have never heard of the points system that was around when RUL was V3.0. It was a system in which you could obtain points for making posts, or get an allowance of points if you purchased premium. You can see an artifact of this if you try to buy premium. It shows the 5% discount and weekly allowance of 100 points.

    This system allowed you to slowly build up these points so that you purchase special things, such as songs on your profile page or gifts for other members. I for one miss it, it was a fun thing to do around RUL.

    So my question to you RULers, old who misses the old RUL Plaza and points system. My question to you new RULers is if you'd like the system. I have no idea if the system could be implemented but I certainly hope it could.

    I really really hope there is a way to get this system implemented back into RUL because I, for one, loved it. Getting gifts and giving gifts was a lot of fun and it made me want to be more active to consistently get more points and find crazy, quirky gifts to randomly give to people

    BTW where the heck's the "Like" option on this site!!

    Ohhere we go…

    The point system was a good way to encourage participation in the site, I think, both in member activity and in creating a sense of personal pride/ownership in RUL. If it were possible to reinstate, I think the benefits for the site would easily outweigh any drawbacks that it may carry in-tow. But that's just me...

    My vote: [AYE] nay

    Not really, I mean, the veteran members eventually build up so many points that they couldn't even try to use them all up.

    True, but then that also gives you the option to donate points. Sharing is caring

    Well, I wonder being in the chatbox will get you points if this is tossed back in.
    Mind you; it would be considerably lower then if you put in a regular post.

    The point system was one of the features that I admired when I first joined. It was really unique and I haven't seen anything like it. If we were to implement it now, I see many more options to use the point system with and not to mention it would probably drive more people to join and stay more active.

    It sounds like a good idea to add it back in. As long as it doesn't take 1000 posts to get one gift.

    This is one thing about RUL I didn't like. I posted sooo much and was a premium for a long time too and I would have like 2000 points.
