HoundDog's blog: "New Points Explanation"

Many people are wondering why they aren't getting as many points as they used to for running PowerUps. In short, Fu have made the bonuses additions rather than stacking.

BASE POINTS

The below points are with being ShitFaced and without a 15% Boost bonus.

Rate	118
Like	235
Polish (1-coin bling)	118
Like Bling	235
Photo Like	235
Photo Rate	118
Rek	58,750
Bomb	29,375

PowerUp Multipliers

NS/RS	25
Nado	500%
Lizer	2

Boomy	1000%
Famp	2
Big Bang	2
11s	2

Polisher	3
Key	2

Dazzler

So, now when, for example, you run a Lizer, NS/RS, and Nado, you get:

235*2 PLUS 235*25 PLUS 235*5

It's the same with the bonuses. The Nado used to supercharge your likes, so you'd get 5 times the points of a Lizer & RS/NS. Now it gets added.

For example, if there were a LIKES BONUS of 125,000%, you'd get

235*2*125,000% = 587,500 for a Lizer

235*25*125,000% = 7,343,750 for a Rock Star/Night Star

235*500%*125,000% = 1,468,750 for a Nado

Then all these bonus are then added together:

587,500+7,345,750+1,468,750 = 9,400.000

The above figure is the maximum you can get these days for a Like (unless you add a 2X). Rating works the same way, although you can boost a Rate with the Family Bonuses.

If you run a Key with a Polisher for the full 6 hours, you might be able to get a trillion points with a decent bonus, but without trading bling, I think that's about the only way you'll do it.

Please let me know if you have any other thoughts about the points system, I'd be happy to add/change them.

Good Luck

One thing to bare in mind is that these figures depend on who's liking you. From what I can tell, there are three different figues; a Noobie gives you slightly more and an unsaluted givers you slightly less.

Copying & Pasting Links
http://fubar.com/copying-pasting-links/b358923-1221864

This is something that newcomers to Fu seem to have trouble with. Links do seem to act differently depending on where they are put. To copy a link first go to the page e.g. someone's profile, then select everything in the web address bar and right click and select copy

To paste just right click where you want it and select Paste.

Profile Status

Links, along with emoticons e.g. smily faces don't seem to work properly here. You can paste a link in, but it shows as a complete link rather than a fubar.com... link. To open a link in someone's profile, just select it by clicking and holding down the left button on your mouse starting where it says "HTTP://" and move your mouse to the end of the address. Then right click the highlighted area. Some browserts such as Chrome will allow you to "Open in a new Tab". If you don't have this option, then just open a new tab and paste the link in and press Enter

My Chat

Copying and pasting is the same as in Profile Status, but when you press Send the address is converted to a fubar.com... link. All the Emoticons seem to work in my chat. *** If you play FuMafia it's worth noting that the T[xxxxxx] & P[xxxxxx] doesn't work in My Chat, you'll need to put the whole turf or player address in

Drinks & Comments from Noobs

This is one of the hardest ones to do at first glance. Firstly, always send a round to noobs every day from the DRINKS tab (Y). There are two quick ways to get comments.

Ask your freinds & Fam if they have any noobs as friends, then ask them to comment on your Activity Feed.
Search through the Online members for green players. When you find one, put a comment on their Activity Feed asking them to hit reply and comment.

Blasts

Easy one when you know how to post a link. If you're not computer savy, then it can be almost impossible. First open any blast in a new tab. Then Open your own Blast from the MY tab. What you need to do is swap the user & blast id's to your own.
