Does anyone know what the "credits" under the private messages are, or what they do, what they are for?

Don't take my exact word for this but I remember someone telling another Poole that those credits were once supposed to be used to purchase stuff off a store but I'm not particularly sure.

I asked this question once before and was told its to keep track of how many time you post. It really serves no purpose it just tracks the activity that you produce on the site!

<HR style="COLOR: #b5b1b1; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #b5b1b1" SIZE=1><!-- / icon and title --><!-- message -->As you have seen over the past week we have been making some changes to Leatherneck. A major change is the "Credits" system that everyone is talking about.

The credit system is put in place so that Leatherneck could rewards its member with various prizes. T-shirts, hats, TV's, vacations, etc. We are also planning on giving away a trip to the Super Bowl as well as other major sporting events.

So how does the credit system work? Well we will be issue a list of ways to receive credits, as well as the ways you will have credits reduced from your account. We will also be posting the rules for the giveaways. For now the credits is in a beta or test stage as we work out the kinks. With that said I have depositied 10,000 credits into everyones account. You can use these credits to enter either a raffle or a lottery where you can win more credits. The raffle is simple. Purchase tickets to enter. There is no limit on tickets. For the lottery, it will give you a random number. You can either purchase that random number, or anter your own number.

You can find the drawing info here:
