Country:  | I don't understand how it works either!  Sometimes I'll post something with 2 lines and get 2 - 3 kills, and at other times I'll post something with a couple of paragraphs and get 0.64 kills!!
I'm confused..........

Country:  | yeah several people have asked about this, baisically, the more you type the more kills you get, and people can judge what kind of poster you are by your kill count, someone that makes large posts will have more kills than those that make short posts............

Country:  | Listen chaps,
I'm an administrator for this board and I don't understand 'em either. Unfortunately this board does not come with an instruction manual (that I've ever been able to find.)
