I am happy to see that there are no more free points for just simply starting a topic. It should cleans things up, and give us the freedom to post away. Now that my actual seasons have started, I might actually start 4 or 5 posts in a day without the dreaded RED screen of death... 
Silly guy... you've never been limited on how many topics you can start in a day. The only previous limitation was HOW MANY you got points for! 
No, I know that. The best part about it is that people no longer can just make up posts just to get the points. There were many threads that were repetative, or just down right perplexing as to why they would even post it.
I am happy that anything is posted, by anyone, will be legitimate.......
