Points, Badges and Ranking
Points: Activities within the community are assigned a point value. When you participate within the community your actions can contribute or deduct from your overall profile points.
Activities that contribute to your points include submitting appropriate content, including comments, writing blogs, posting to the forums, uploading photos and videos, and a whole bunch of other actions. Views of your profile and your blogs by other members also count towards your overall points.
Activities that deduct points from your total include having comments, blog posts, messages, forum posts, photos or videos deleted. The penalties can be large so please adhere to the community standards.

Prospect
It would be helpful to put down a post as to how many points each activity gives a member. A blog post = 50 pts. a comment = 2 pts., etc. A lot of us are active, but are not accumulating points fast enough to achieve a higher ranking. I'm in my 30's but won't rank up till I'm 50 with the way Fox is dishing out these measley points.
