Why is there points on my profile?

Vex Prime

Why are there points on my profile? Is there a reason why they are there or are they a type of leveling up type of Forum system. I'm unsure of what to know since the Forum rules do not inform me of the points. If anyone can help me I appreciate it dearly. Thank you kindly I appreciate everyone and I hope everyone has a safe and wonderful Afternoon.

Points come from the reactions that people give on your posts and comments. Points are given for every reaction except LOL and disagree. All the points really do is give you more stars after your name. It starts at one star and goes up to five silver stars.

So is there a point like a reward for getting all 5 stars? Or is it there to show how long you've been on the forums.

The stars increase after you reach a certain point threshold, i don't remember what each of them are though

There's nothing you get for reaching five stars, really just shows you probably spend too much time on here lol.

Most forums have this sort of rating system built into it, including this one. However, Kabam chooses not to do anything specific with that rating system, so it is just there.

I'm pretty certain they do not.

I thought the stars has nothing to do with “points” and more about how many posts you made.

No they are simply number of posts you made on forum.

That is straight up not true

I'm sad there isn't 6* and 7* on forums yet, plus awakened versions

Nosrep

I believe that:

250 points = 2*
500 = 3*
1000 = 4*
3000 = 5*
5000 = 5* awakened
