do you guys think theres any need to create more levels beyond 30?
im not in favour of new levels as there not needed but i think it would be nice to see what they look like.
Post here to enjoy yourself, not just to become a member.

Sounds like good advice cheer.

Congratulations Qwoxyl, it's been a funny 24 hours watching you and spancker talk to eachother here about emailing and such, as I'm guessing it was for the other members just wanting to say, "For the love of God Qwoxyl, you are our newest member." You'll be a good addition. You're helpful, mature, and funny at times. Also, you're not "lolwtf omfg ROFL" annoying and what have you. Welcome aboard.
I doubt I could have written a good a summary (and I know I couldn't have written one as succinct) of the situation. Grats MrX and thanks MPA =)

Your parents are 20 when you are born.
When you are 5, you are 20% of their age.
When you are 10 you are 33.33% of their age.
When you are 20, you are 50% of their age.
When you are 40, you are 66.67% of their age.
When you are 60, you are 75% of their age.
At no time are you ever any closer than 20 years younger than your parents, but your percentage constantly goes up. In the experience system, this is reflected by the fact that your base voting power is constantly increasing.
The fact that there are "levels" arbitrarily placed along the way causes people to think that more levels would actually mean something. They are simply there as a courtesy to let people have shorter range goals to attempt to achieve, as well as having predefined BBS icons.

What does arbitrarily mean? i see that word everywhere and professors at college always say that word.. but i don't know what the heck it means yo. tell me please.
Hey, how is everyone, congrat's to all who have achieved something, speaking of dictionary.com, if anyone needs to know what something means click on my sig, I added a link to that site in it. I just like that site. Well see you after i get some more points.
Wow that was fast, I got like a whole b/p point, there's nothing in the portal right now, I'm really hoping to get within 200 points of my next rank up by Monday!

You may want to reset your goal. You have 545 and need 1k for PC. That would mean getting 255 BPs in the next 8 hours.

You really want some good advice Dire? I would talk to BonusStage...wait, i mean NameChangeWhatsThat. You should e-mail him cause that kid's got some secrets.
Jeezus, why the name change...

What do you want me to tell him?
And Dogma, that would mean that I have to get 250+points in the next 30 hours, not 8 tomorrow is Sunday not Monday!

Yep ... I'm doing the update tomorrow, so I keep thinking it's Friday ^^ Still, you'll need to average 8 BPs/hour for the duration. You'd better go brew some coffee and prep an IV

Chances are some thread you posted in got deleted. Since the thread's gone, so are your posts.

I don't know...tell him that I think he is sexy. :-x
For a guy who has been on NG for 120 days, and has 8544 BP points, he is doing something right.

Well, D0GMA is doing the stat pull tomorrow. Which is sunday. Which is in 13 hours or so. Which is why you probably won't be on this update. I do, however, think you will be on the next one.

I highly doubt it'll have been a down. Where you are, with a high number of slow movers and inactives (sorry, but it's true), it doesn't take a great rate to gain places.
I'm wanting to see it as well, to recollect where I am and who's passed me recently. I could find out myself, but I'm lazy in that regard :-)
Review list was posted earlier today BTW.
Hey BonusStage(I like that name better) could you help me get some b/p points evn if you could get me 10 or so that would be great!

And mine will actually be on it!!! How exciting is that? Well, for me it's exciting anyway. September should be my big month for b/p though, lots of my friends start uni/gap year jobs, and I don't go up to uni till October, so less distractions :D </being a loser>

Thanks for being subtle jon :P i realise im not that high ranked mate, but we all start somewere right. I hope ive actually went up atleast 50 places but i highly doubt that.

Ah yes, I remember now, you did mention it before. Join the poker club there, so that when I come down for the Oxford Cup I can win all your money :-)
Sheffield, Law, in case you were wondering.

And you probably will, because I suck at poker. Everyone can tell when I'm bluffing :(

Cool, I nearly did law, but changed my mind. Is it your last year?
