I've just noticed that each ECC member has "Points". What are they for? How are they given? Can I redeem them for something, like a new blender or a clock/radio? :lol:

I just asked Robert the same thing...20 points for a new post, 10 for a reply...I know he has some evil plan in store for us. Possibly a monthly give away or prize of some sort.... :wink:

OK, I see...they're frequent poster points...sort of like frequent flier miles. Thanks.

Exactly! And we're giving away Peter (87SS) as the booby prize!

And you'll also notice that the points are retroactive...you have been awarded points for all your previous posts!
Some time in the near future, we'll give away some t-shirts and stuff...maybe even get sponsors to kick in some goodies for you guys.

Hey, wait a minute I like booby's

But, on another note...I'm going to up to Goodmark this week (it's just a piece up the road) to pick-up a hood and I'll probably get to meet John (da owner)...I'm on da hunt...Let's see what I can get! Could be the first "giveaway" If it's a 5th gen cowl hood, ya'll are toast...it's mine :lol:

The give-away goodies are a great idea Robert.

Speaking of t-shirts...will ECC shirts and other ECC stuff be available soon?

Thanks to whoever asked this question. I noticed it yesterday and had no clue what the points system was. Glad to hear about the possibility of free stuff. Guess I might be getting a lot of points soon cause my dad and I just started checking over our 70 Elky.

As always, thanks for a great site dedicated to the Elky.
