My counter question would be whether there is any point behind implementing them? Such a system would be rife with abuse unless only Moderators could hand them out, and we already have a 3 member and 3 mod structure.
What FactionHeir said - I for one am totally opposed to such a system. What we have at current is satisfactory. I have also read posts at forums where they have such a system condemning them. This has been due to users generating more reputation for spamming, trolling and flaming than posting considerate/constructive information.

True.
What is this 3 member 3 mod structure? That can't mean a 1:1 ratio of members/ mods can it?
We have Junior Members, Members and Senior Members.
Everybody who registers an account at the Org starts as a Junior Member. If a Junior Members makes a few posts, in the meanwhile following Org rules, he/she gets promoted to Member status (usually within a few weeks).
Senior member is a honorific, used to recognize members' contributions to the overall good of the Org. Promotion to Senior member is decided by staff on a case to case basis.
As for the mod structure, I think Omanes just meant to say that we have 3 "types" of people moderating the forum : assistant moderators, moderators (with the green usernames) and administrators (red usernames).
You can find a list of moderators here.
The "regular members" listed as moderators are people who have certain moderator powers in specific subfora. Most of them are leaders of a mod team (mod as in "modification").
You can find more information about staff organisation and membership in therothers' excellent Guild FAQ.
:bow:
Unlike some other places, you don't get promoted with how much you post, so please don't spam :beam:
I agree. Post quality should be praised instead of quanity. Being a good Orgah is more important than how many posts you have under notched on your sword belt.
Oh, look, my post count went up one point... :laugh4:
Actually in the Watchtower it is +0! :2thumbsup:Quote:

My thoughts exactly. :2thumbsup:Quote:

Could these points be negative? :fainting:
If so, I'm very opposed! :creep:
Yes PanzerJaeger, it can. It's also possible to take points away from others and attach labels to levels.
Look at me. I was the Omni-admin once. And that day...When I started browsing Babe Thread...It all started with that ****** thread's opening. I ended up with doing nothing but drooling in the fora. At a certain topic, to be precise.
And here I am. I've been demoted to Assistant Moderator eventually. Thanks to Gregoshi-sensei and KukriKhan-sensei 's "reputable" advices, I was saved from even further action.
Now I'm being cured of my disease in a backroom where people gather to perform demonic rituals.
" OO'-BAMA OO' ! HELL-LARREH ! OO-BAMA OO' !"
