Referrals?

[SPIRU]

I see this when I click on a persons username, its below their post count. What is it and how does it work?

Thanks!

When someone signs up, they can type in the username of the person that "referred" then to NewBeetle.org. It's possible to then use referrals as a "bonus," giving people greater access or capabilities for a certain number of referrals. However, i don't intend to do this at NewBeetle.org.

So, it's the number of people that signed up because that person told them to -- but it doesn't really mean much in terms of that member's standing at NewBeetle.org.

Make sense?

Ah ok, figured it was something to that affect. Thanks Jeff!
