Part 1. - Introduction
Many of us are saving up for a custom user title, custom font/color for our names, a pack of 50 posts, or some other VBplaza PSP3D store object. We post , make new threads, save points in the bank, but we never make anything worth while. This guide should help you if your one of these unfortunate people who don't know the secret of the pros. {infomercial} You can buy this guide for 50 points plus S&H. BUT WAIT! Through this special forum offer, you can get this guide ABSOLUTELY FREE. If your not satisfied within 30 days, return the book to us, you won't even pay for shipping and handling! Lets get started! {/infomercial}

Part 2. What to do -
I. The easiest way to make points is to post tutorials (such as this one. Hehe...) in the Getting Started/Help/Tutorials section. It will get you a whopping 15 points a thread, and can make a HUGE difference in the time it takes to get that funky user title. Remember to follow
these guidelines, however.
II. Another way to make points is to post news in the member news section. Since the admins here don't have a bunch of paid bloggers, it not only helps out the community, but it also gives you 10 points a thread.
III. Put all that $$$ in the bank. It prevents theft, as well as builds up interest every week. If you continue to put money in the bank as you get it, and save up money rather than spend it all at once, you will see that interest getting higher. Although it takes time and patience to build up interest, if you are patient and save up alot of points, you will soon be getting large amounts of points every week, and you will basically be profiting even if you barely post member news or tutorials at all!

Part 3. What NOT to do
I. Don't be an asshat and beg for points! No one will help you, and if you start a thread about it it will most likely be locked. Its alright to say in your signature that you would appreciate points, but don't go over the top.
II. Don't take large amounts of points and try to thieve with them if you don't understand the risks! Thieving is like flipping a coin, trying to thieve 200 points from, say, CaptainTTK, will a fair amount of the time take 200 points from you as he beats the living tar out of you, so be careful.
III. Don't post alot of useless comments! For example if you go into a thread about Medal of Honor:Heroes, and start screaming z0rG0mG P0tat0s3x!@!!111one!eleven!1@!, your probably going to be banned, warned, and/or generally not liked.

I hope this helped some of you who are pointless (no pun intended), and to those of you who are experienced with the points and point system, please correct me if any point I made is in any way inaccurate. Thanks.
