Points, Comments, Favorites, and Recommendations
Choose, reward, talk about, and then share the content you think is best.
Points
Points are another important part of the posting experience. If you like a Post you have the option of giving the Post and the User points.
Giving points is a way to reward a good post, but it is also a way for people to be able to find the best content on the site. It is a form of evaluating the posts. If a post receives a lot of points, other users will know that it is good quality content. The posts with the most points will be featured on the site as a Top Post, so that users can find them more easily. As a Full User you will have 10 points a day to give. Great Users have 15 points a day, and Moderators have 35 points per day. Rookies do not have points until they graduate to Full Users.
Remember:
- Each day your stock of points is restored, but you can't accumulate the points to use all at once. If you don't use them by the end of the day, you will lose them.
- The points that you earn with your posts are separate from the points that you have to give away. So, don't worry that you will lose points by giving points to another user, the two things are unrelated!
- You can only give points to a particular post once.
- Simply stated, points are a way to show recognition to a great user or a great post, so don't forget to use them!
Comments
At the bottom of a Post or a Topic there will be a space for users to leave a comment.
Be careful when you comment, as comments also must comply with the protocol. Within Posts, you can also vote on the comments, +1 
or -1 
. The most popular comments will be featured first right under the end of the post. At times a person might also choose to disable comments on their Post or Topic.
Favorites
You can mark the Post as a favorite.
Several things will happen as a result of marking a favorite Post. The Post will appear in your profile in the Favorites section. This will make it easier to revisit the post later if you wish to. A notification will be sent to the user who created the Post letting them know you marked it as a favorite.
And finally, the fact that it has been marked as a favorite will appear at the bottom of the Post.
Recommendations
Another option is to recommend this Post to your followers.
People follow other users in order to access more content that interests them, therefore giving and receiving recommendations is a great way to expand your network on Socialphy! You can also recommend posts and topics to your connections on Facebook and Twitter or email the link to a friend.
