There are tons of knowledgeable reefers here that like to help fellow reefers out. I for one never really noticed the points system until now. It used to just be message counts and date to tell ya who is active here.
This is the main site I visit and a large part of that if for the lack of moderation and filters. I enjoy some of the drama and shit talking that goes on here and how people can freely express this ideas filter free.
It's also part of the reason I'm not as active on RC mostly just the local forum there, mods are control freaks over there. R2R is well balanced and super active so I use that as well. Hell i think a lot of the OG members here were banned from RC
