Kudos are a way for you, the members of TFS, to help shape what kind of posts you want to see on TFS!
It also provides feedback to posters on what other people think of their post.
You are able to give both positive and negative kudos. When a post gets positive kudos, the number of points for the post will increase 20% of the time (and whoever posted it will get that point).
If a post receives enough negative kudos it is automatically removed from the site and any points earned by posting it are deducted from the posters point total.
Each day you have a limited number of kudos depending on your user level. Currently it is 10 kudos per day for all normal members with positive points.
So, give positive kudos to good posts and negative kudos to spam or flaming posts!
I may change the details of the kudos system from time to time
