Hey, I just wanted to point to some stuff that I've been doing.

Recently I added the ability to rate stuff. Right now I only have it applied to products but we could apply it to other stuff in the future if we wanted to. Forum posts, for example.

I also added a point system for the forum. Each time you start a topic you get 5 points. Each time you respond to one you get 1 point. This post is sort of the first test of the system. I may jigger around with it a bit to get it so that it feels right, but since the points are all just a way of scoring contributions it doesn't really matter what the economy looks like. You can view your own points on your account page (once you start accruing points) and I'll create a page that shows everybody's points at some.. point.

This post is sort of the first test of that system.
