Yeah I've had to work on my behaviour here too haha, I haven't been banned in like 3 years now but in my total time on VGC (nearly 10 years now) I've had something like 7 temporary bans, generally for just losing my cool and calling people fanboys and the like. Emotional regulation isn't my strong suit and I sometimes say things without thinking it through, especially when I am stressed.

The most liked post in this whole thread (and likely this whole forum) so far, Rol's, also earned him a ban funnily enough. He just came out and said what a lot of us were thinking at the time but were too well behaved to break the rules by saying.

Sure. Why not? I’m curious.

It is for "likes" received. The other way around would be exploitable (although, like on Whose Line Is It Anyway, the points don't matter).

Just realized I never did yours, so here you go, better late than never:

I think points for likes were implemented a while after the like system (I'd have to check with TalonMan on that) and the point system is weirdly made which means no points were awarded for the likes made during the gap.
