A Question About Leveling up

Remove ranks, post counts, badges and likes.

The only thing that should matter is the content of your post. Not how many internet points you have. It just encourages spamming.

I was always wondering what the stars meant.

I mean if someone spammed something It would just mean that they are likely to get flagged (multiple times) I do believe that most post on here are not spammy

I never knew how I got points. I just remember I'd randomly get hit with Hey, you leveled up!" and I was just like "Wow, thanks! Don't what I did but I'll happily accept!"

I was just more curious on if likes and agrees helped or not.

I am not convinced flagging does all that much, beyond docking you points.

We will have to agree to disagree on the definition of spamming, but I guess these forums do have a dearth of content and discussion topics between game releases, so it is inevitable that we get the hyper-specific "what's your favourite blue, quadrupedal Hoenn Pokémon?" threads.
