Bodypoints?

[kingleviathan]

I've searched on the FAQ's and the forums that I think would contain information about them. I get the rep but then I see people with bodypoints. When I click on my.bodybuilding.com when it tells me how to learn more I just get redirected and still cannot figure out how the hell you get bodypoints. So anyone care to explain? Thanks in advance.

Great question, I was trying to figure out the same thing. So I'll be checking back to see if anyone can help us

They stopped working properly shortly after Al Gore invented the internet.

I got a whole bunch of point when I first set the account up and nothing since!
Whats the deal with them those?!

I'm in the same boat.

I don't understand the BodyPoints either.

I sort of don't get the Rep Power. I understand people can give you good or bad reputation points (I guess) , but some people are 'red', and others aren't ... it's all just a tad confusing

Bodypoints were at some time supposed to mean something, but no one was ever quite sure what.

I read that they stopped bodypoints completely.

The bodypoints system has been down for quite some time (January I think?)
Here's a link to the news about them:

Read the last post for the most up-to-date details (as far as I know about):

"Nope. Earliest guess is by December, honestly. Might be even 2009 before we see Points restored to their former glory, LOL. Sorry for the extended delay."

This was posted in June, so yea... don't hold your breath

I was curious about this too-- thanks for posting the link, Sir!

Bodypoints have been down for more than one year. They just need to be deleted off if they are not going to be fixed.

yep...and even before that when they were working, they were never good for anything

No one ever seemed to be able to explain their purpose.

No one ever seemed to be able to explain their purpose.

That's the worst part... Imagine having 10,000 bodypoints and not knowing whether to be proud or humiliated

[SilvrBckGorilla]

If you have more than 50,000 you are a complete loser.


































Oh wait...

Bodypoints was a feature added to the site to prep it for sale to Liberty Media. Once the sale occurred the feature was ditched because it took up too much bandwidth and the facade was no longer needed. Notice how no new features have been added to this site since the sale of the site to Liberty Media. Wake up.

You have all been had.

Hilarious. I see that admin took the time to neg rep me once again. How fun that I struck such a nerve with this comment. Must have been some real truth to it.

[samsuperjew5]

(no neg please) but i think admin should change his name and make the "a" in admin a capital letter

haha. The truth hurts. Rep points are pretty pointless as well. It just gives jerks a chance to be even BIGGER jerks. Maybe just possitive reps would be nice.

Other problem is the fact that most people that are into fitness also think that they are the expert on it. This leads to a lot of stupid fighting. Should be monitored a little better.

I monitor a forum and I delete ANY rude comment and ask the user to either be nice or get booted.
