  thanks, it's appreciated

  For some reason it's stopped collecting points when i post again,
  don't know why, and it only just started working again today.

  as i mentioned in a previous post, it seems to work that once you've "collected" a point, that point isn't available for 24hrs from that time, rather than the much more logical system of 20 points per calender day(12am to 12am)
  
  i.e if i get 10 points now and then 10 points at 4pm, then tomorrow anytime between now and 4pm i would be able to get 10 points and then after 4pm the other 10 would be available as it had been 24hrs since i was given those specific points.
  
  as i said it's totally illogical but that seems to be the way it works for some reason, or at least that's the only way it could work that comes close to explaining which posts i'm given points for
  
  so basically think of it as 20 points in a 24hr period and forget the fact that we have these things called days that happen to also be 24hrs
  
  i hope i've made sense there

  Pretty much makes sense, thanks for the help, so hopefully by tonight i'll be able to get points again presumably 24 hours from the time they stopped at least i think thats what you mean't my tired brain is going slow today lol,
  i'll still be posting today, just obviously not getting points for it.

  yeah, that should be the case if i've worked it out correctly! and if i have managed to work it out, i demand i go from "member" under my name to "lead detective in charge of working out the points system" lol
