Uh oh, sounds like the Chinese social credit system! Better behave yourselves!

That was written in 2007, when the site started. Now they just track how active someone is on site.

Points are for forum activity. I think, because I spend all my time on forums and I almost have 300 points.

Pretty much any content gives points. Notes, forum posts, blogs, comments on any of those, etc.
