hi Lauren... the points are basically used like money and is commonly referred to as cash. You use them to buy downloads and other fun stuff.You get points for every post except in the spam corner and the introduction threads. I suggest you read this http://neofriends.net/viewtopic.php?f=41&t=19324 it will explain everything you need to know. Otherwise have some fun don't hesitate to ask for further information. Have fun, ak47-neo.
Welcome both Lauren and April. The points you use for programs, you get points by posting throughtout the forum Non-spam posts. For Example, dont just post "cool", you should acttually have something to say about the topic you post in, anyways, glad to have ya here!
