It is a reminder for members which come at 10 PM on weekends (esp Sunday) click at articles and reach in top 5 on weekly leader board.
While it is perfectly alright if you post in forums and earn points at your chosen time/day it certainly will not be tolerated that you rob the honest members. So be honest to yourself and do all your reading carefully in future. The chances are you will never reach anywhere next week if you continue with your present tactics.
It is quite funny to see those very members who indulge in all the aforementioned, objectionable activities should be the one urging moderators to take action against such things. I feel that no matter what kind of rules and regulations or point systems are brought in place, it still remains that each individual should have the basic responsibility and moral sense to use those systems wisely which will benefit all concerned but still t does not happen.
@babu saroj and Vaishnavi, it is high time you get your acts straight or you might not be able to earn a single point next week. I hope you read at least Sunil's post properly.

Member/s love to sermonize others while they shamelessly do Everything possible to grab points. Reading articles and getting points is a one time gain but posting randomly the same thing on different ways is certainly that needs to be looked into. But I understand the limitations of the admin there, which is what makes the members manipulate and the advantage of..

Yes Usha that is the bane of this community and sadder is the fact that there are senior members who do that. But hopefully we can take care of it soon.
I do believe that the primary responsibility of reining in such unethical thuggery is that of the administration and the move contemplated by Sunil should be welcomed.In life as well as in this site there would be always smart people out there to outsmart others by adopting unfair and questionable means. Although I agree with Kalyani's views that until and unless members live upto images as mature,conscientious and fair-minded individuals it is almost impossible to fight off this menace!!

Of course, from the beginning you and Kalyani were saying that there is a definite plan to handle such members who are using unfair tactics. Kalyani even named them. I have faith in both of you. I also know that there are limitations. Still, I believe both of you can handle the situation to arrest this malady.

It is my opinion that members who are active few of them visit each days article pages. I rare view articles. So it is also good option that no points credited for reading articles.
Thi point I raised earlir. But Sunil said as of now its not feasible.
Sunil is also right we can't ignore earning side of site. To run site earning is essential. Earning is possible only with views of pages.

Some established practices are there, which the Administration think are not a violation of rules of this site. It's not possible to scrap them overnight. But our Moderators are sure to find a way out. Both Sunil and Kalyani are working in this direction. I'm sure sooner than later a definite plan would emerge.
There was once a site similar to this which closed down and many members joined in here and I too was a member there for sometime ..One thing good about the site was the equal opportunity it gave for all its members . Members could take part in discussions but only a certain number of posts each day would fetch them points after which they were free to post but no remuneration. I feel we need to bring that rule here as well so that more members get active and feel that their work is being appreciated.
