So since we can also "arrow down" someone's post, does that mean that they lose BrickPoints, or does the count only go up?

 

I don't think that you can take someones points away.

Like Ed mentioned in his post, there will be a complete rundown on what everything is worth and what is available for points.  For right now, just use the forums.  Help one another, post good stuff, have fun.  Ed and I have a lot of work to do. When its ready, a full explanation will be given.  As of right now, no points are subtracted for any negative comments.

I am not 100% certain, but I think you lose 1 BP for each arrow down.

Scratch that. See post above.

Good, since it seems I just earned my first "arrow down"!

Sorry, Fcbarcelona, but you were my experiment and I "arrow down"'ed your post. Seeing as I cannot undo this, I just "arrowed up" another post.

Sounds good. Don't worry.

Time to whip out the metaphorical pen and ink, I guess!  I've been pretty busy at work but am looking forward to writing and reading more about my favorite hobby over the summer.  Brickpoints are a nice extra!

I arrowed up the one you arrowed down!  Anyone confused?

Herm... I guess we can delete my last comment on the "experiment", if a Moderator feels like plugging themselves back into the conversation...

So what you are essentially saying is 1 BP per post.

Maybe for one of your posts. Get my point? If you have something valuable to say and people like it, it could be worth 5 points, or 10 points.

I think we're getting a little too ahead of ourselves worrying about the Brickpoint numbers. I'm wondering if leaving them off our avatars would've been a better option until the full explanation came down the pipe.

It is a little distracting.  Maybe if they were just under a members profile, members would get more hits on their pages.

Man you guys are whiny tonight. QuitcherBitchin :)

A new award is coming soon...The Whiner.

Glad the numbers are no longer there. I'll eagerly await the proper release with all disclosures.

Sounds awesome. CANNOTWAIT for Brickclassifieds. But alas, I guess I will have to... 

 

Keep up the awesome work guys!

You can say that again. Good grief....

Sweet, can't wait!

Oooh brickclassifieds sounds cool. Better start saving my pennies!

Also, noob question here.  Where can I find my Brickpoints total?  I remember before the update that there was a place to see how many you had, and where they accumulated from.  Now I can't seem to find that.  Sorry if this is already explained somewhere.

It's right in your little poster information box. Right below your icon of "BrickPicker" in a shaded gray box it reads the number of brick points. You can also check them by going to your profile then choosing BrickPoints from the tabs on the side.

Oh okay, thanks comicblast.
