Heh -- that was actually proposed for a karma-style thing on LJ, way back when, and it went over ... poorly. It's still the butt of jokes in certain LJ circles... Anyway, I think we've hit the point of this discussion where there's no point in trying to name things until we build them, and this thread has gone on for a while, so I've created a page on the Wiki for people to brainstorm: http://dreamwidth.cometheapocalypse.com/wiki/index.php? title=Points_brainstorming Let's move this discussion off-list and do the brainstorming on the wiki page; this isn't something that we'd be able to have in place by launch, anyway. --D -- Denise Paolucci [email protected] Dreamwidth Studios: Open Source, open expression, open operations.
