I am still kind of new to this I been on the forms or like year 1/2 ..... ... .

.. But I think its a kind of police system and it keep track if some one reports you and I think if you get enough the sever police ban you  or something like that and its also might be a way to kick people that are just here to troll us brony...... like haters and stuff like that.

 

But IDK ... The way I see just don't be a jacka** to people , not to start YouTube comment fight and try not to swear and you should be fine.

It's kind of a wonky system (in my opinion) that punishes you for various "infractions" and is seemingly intended to encourage you to behave differently at length.  Once incurred, the points fall off ever-so-slowly, and you get perma-banned if you hit a certain point total.  I only just recently got back down to zero.

Hey there Dream-catcher.

 

I've moved your topic to Site Questions and Tech Support as this section would be the best for a question like this.
