About Leetpoints:

Leetpoints are awarded for posting on the XGen forums. You will not be awarded LP for posting in Spammer Land, or any of its subforums. You will NOT get LP for posting in old threads. (Threads earlier than beta release). As such, it may take a bit for you to start getting LP for every new legitimate post you make.

The big new feature in LP is forts. Please click on the "explanation" tab in the forts section to learn about them
