what are the profile points for and how do you get them and use them?

Thanks

can any one help me with this?

You get them by posting on the forums, but they seemed to have stopped using them.

Actually, I'm not sure if they ever STARTED using them

I thought they were used a couple years ago, at least that is what I heard. I haven't been on these forums long enough to know.

I've noticed that you gain points by posting topics in different forums.

To what end?

I wish I knew, or at least had some idea how to get points. Maybe you should ask the guy with over 10,000 points.

I was curious also as I had long forgotten that info. Went all the way back to 11/22/2008 forum thread regarding this (as in last page...) and got the answers...sort of...

Supposedly the points you get go towards monthly prize raffles as follows:

Level 1 Raffle = 25+ points

Level 2 Raffle = 200+ points

Level 3 Raffle = 800+ points

Level 4 Raffle = 1000+ points

Whether these raffles ever happened, I have no idea but I am sure someone at FFG would know.

As for how you earn points, they were keeping it secret but it looks like you get 10 points for registering, 5 points for creating your game library, and 5 points per forum post I believe. I cannot confirm the accuracy, but it seems valid as I have/had 25 points up til now (register, game library, and two previous forum posts = 25 points). Also cannot confirm if points still given, probably see if I get 5 points for this post or not...

Hmm. I'm curious about this as well. Do points actually matter?

FFG did at the start of the "NEW Forms"did play up the point totals,but only 1 raffle was ever held(at least I don't remember ever seeing more).I think that at various point levels FFG was going to open up new content but it all just vanished without a trace.

The Points continue to be assigned but it appears to be meaningless.

Oh they are not meaningless. +5 for me LOL.

Yeah, I think it was some sort of raffle. Not sure how that worked though.

Huh. I always assumed that they were some sort of e-peen.

The perks of joining the community (and purpose of points) is explained on this page ( http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/edge_comunidad_ventajas.asp ) And it tells you how to find out who won the raffle (says it's posted on the last friday of the month)

I haven't been a member long enought to see a last friday, so I don't know for sure the details or if it's still active. Based on the responses in this forum, it sounds like there may be a stall in the raffles.

But maybe we just need to rally together and get the momentum back up.....lets all get together and say...

We love fantasy flight games!!!.....do us a raffle and give out some spoils.....or at least tell us where to all gather and throw something in and let us all fight for it....or roll for it??

Not that I do posts in order to see my points grow, but I noticed that I am stuck. somehow. Well, as long as I can make myself heard or read ...

Just signed up for this forum a few days ago.

The raffle has to still be on since it's still mentioned when you join the forum and FFG are doing wonders keeping stuff up to date.

I can't in any way imagine that there is not a raffle at the last friday of this month!

It is inconcivable if it's gone since FFG is such an amazing company and actually update the news-section often. It would take them like 3 minutes of their time to get rid of the whole raffle thing if it wasn't running so . . . IT IS STILL RUNNING! IT HAS TO !!! EVERY OTHER CONCLUSION MUST BE WRONG!!!! SINCE FFG WOULDN'T LURE CUSTOMERS WITH FALSE PROPAGANDA THEY COULD REMOVE IN 3 BLEEDIN' MINUTES!!!!!

Posted at 2012-08-11 17:10:05+00:00

If I had to bleed for 3 minutes I would keep it the same

Posted at 2012-10-03 12:21:13+00:00

I wasn't able to find any "prizes posted in the news last friday" and no "exclusive content such as additional rules" either. Probably i don't have enough points but i also couldn't find someone at least describing what that exclusive content ist.

Not a bit. Nowhere.
