What the hell do points do ?

haha...well you can use the points you gain from posts, donations, or someone else rating or post to do things such as give your name a glow (like Katarn and i), put an image in your signature, acquire a custom title, and the like. thought most forum regs would know this by now, but i guess you dont peruse the other JK2 forums.

not at all, just this forum, some info on how to give my name some shinyness?

i dont know about shinyness..but if you obtain 300 points then you can make your name glow like mine.
