1 pt. For Bumping a post or comment. 1 pt. For receiving  a Bump to your post or comment. 1.5 pts. For commenting on a comment 1.5 pts. For Receiving a Comment on your comment. 2pts. For Commenting on a post. 2pts. For Receiving a Comment on your post. 3pts. For Making a post. No points for commenting on your own post. No points for bumping your own posts or comments. A key point here is distributing the points to whom was responsible for making the conversation. \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ I am operating out of the pretense that the coins will be distributed on a 1 time large dump basis, and not an ongoing process. I think we have ruled out a system that continuously disperses coins. \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ My other thinking here is, can we develop a scoring system to "Split points" between commenters and posters. ie.  A scenario where **User A** creates a post. **User B** then comments **User C** then comments on User B's comment **User C and B** then go back and forth for hours making hundreds of comments to each other.  But the Poster **User A** would not gain any points from this. Should these points be split between the poster and commenters? Should the OP get prioritization or reward for creating the discussion? How does this fit in with weighting against flame wars? @grouchfkadiogenes @thoughtcriminal\_1984 @felbz @braven

no let's try to overcomplicate it as much as possible. We need to also factor in bumps and comments from both sides.  Posting a comment and receiving a comment should be an equal force. If we have a base system of: a Post = 3 pts a Comment(posted or received) = 2 pts a Bump (posted or received) = 1 pt then apply the weighting formula you've come up with. Where we set the weight that Post A would get 50% less points attributed than Post B in the OP scenario.

I want the ability to block individual contributors on the individual level for myself.  The reason does not have to be nefarious behavior.  It can just be that I think the other contributor (s) serially contributes topics that I have no interest in.   No block on free speech.  They can post all they want.  I just don't want to see it.  This one tweak would make my Soj.ooO experience much better.  I also want the power to unblock, so I can scan back and see if I missed anything.  Sometime you can find a diamond in a rock pile :)

a post is the most valuable thing.  But a post in itself has a higher value in any weighting system, because a post is the only thing that can generate bumps and comments.  So they will naturally receive more points long term.

This is my key reasoning for adding time allocations to these suspensions or bans.   I could select ban this person for 24 hours or 7 days, because I still may want to interact with this user in the future, but for right now I need a break.  It doesn't memory hole, it doesn't censor free speech, it just gives me a break to think and process.  Which I think is fair and healthy in both directions.
