    If you get 114 points, you get to turn them in at the HAMB store for any prize on the top shelf. Good luck!

    Likes are when someone gives you a "like" for something you posted. See, you have two already! :)

    OK, I just liked your post, so you have at least one of them to show your friends.

    I've got 113 Trophy Points and have no fucking idea who, what, when or where they came from.

    The point of the board isn't to collect that kind of shit, It is for participating in this great hobby/pastime. Enjoy.

    Another fun game is to see what percentage you have in likes vs posts. I am at 45.7%. Of course, you can get more than one like for a posting, but you can also get reamed out or deleted. Those don't count.

    Don't know about points, but I'm sure you will eventually get some "pointers". Hang around, the freindly advice is fun. If you don't get your ass slapped every now and then you are not trying hard enough...............:D

    If you see a post you like, click on the word LIKE in the lower right corner of the post.

    Pay no attention to points. They're a vestigal part of the software the site is based on, designed to encourage posting. But on a popular site like this, they serve no purpose.

    Think of it like a car show. You spend all of your time and money building what you feel is the baddest ride that's ever hit the street, the type of car that all of the magazines are calling you, wanting to feature it. You go to the show, spend hours polishing it, and running off little kids that are trying to put their fingers on it after they've picked their noses. And eventually your name is called out, and all of that work and cash spent is rewarded with a $20 trophy o_O:D

    Points are like the points of Who's Line Is It Anyway.
    Be careful with the "likes". Someone might think that you're getting amorous with them...

    I don't Facebook, or any other social media stuff, so i have to base my social acceptance on the amount of likes i get from a bunch of greasy, crippled up punks here lmao! Boy I'm glad he didn't add a dislike button!!

    But seriously, if you click your name, your info pops up, you can click your trophy points and it tells you what you got them for.

  16. I traded all my trophy points for these swell prizes.

  17. For each like, 1000 bit coins will be deposited to your Nigerian account. The trophy points have something to do with hookers, least that's what I've heard...
     
  18. Like. If you see something cool, click the like thingy
    Quote and Reply Click one of these to add to a point, explain how someone is right or wrong, answer a question, or ask for clarification.
    Report: click this thingy for adds that sometimes pop up. Like for mail order brides or male enhancement products.
    Or for something off topic live a crown Vic swap in a s10 chassis swapped Civic. (The moderators usually pick up these quickly)
    Or if some drunk member accidentally post nudes of themselves.

    And after you figure out trophy points you can move onto why some posts are featured and some other really good posts aren't. Maybe its just FM but in the end it just doesn't matter. Liked or not liked, featured or not the HAMB is all about shared info, advice, and support AND all without politics.

    Nudity quickly gets deleted, and spanked, on the HAMB. Particularly if the nudity involves any member of the HAMB!
