Journal Journal: Got five more last night

It's been about a month since I last got mod points, and I don't think that I found anything that I wanted to use them on before they expired. I haven't been posting at all, and my meta-moderating is way down from what I used to do. In fact, it seems like I'm not as eligible to meta-moderate as I once was. It seems like I used to be asked to do it three times within a 24 hour period, but lately it's only been once or twice.

Journal Journal: Five More Mod Points, Again

I haven't posted any comments in the discussion threads since before I got the last batch of points, and have only been meta-moderating four or five times a week lately.

Journal Journal: What a surprise!

Holy crap - I got five more mod points! I wasn't expecting to see more for months, at the rate things had been going. I wonder if it has anything to do with having posted the other day for the first time in months. The Taco moves in mysterious ways...

Journal Journal: Four Months Later

I got five moderator points a couple of days ago, for the first time in four and a half months. I used three of them the first day, couldn't find anything that I felt like moderating yesterday, and the remaining two disappeared before I could use them today.

Journal Journal: Mod points, cont.

OK, I've checked back frequently enough to see that I'm still eligible to metamoderate three times in a 24 hour period - I guess that's the norm. (I might even be eligible to do it more often, but I'd rather sleep than check...)

I actually managed to use all five moderation points this time. Let's see if I'm more likely to get them more frequently if I actually use them, or if it doesn't make any difference.

Journal Journal: Mod points

I got five more moderator points today. The last batch expired unused a few days ago on September 2nd. These will expire on September 9th if left unused.

I seem to go several weeks without new points, and then get two or three batches in rapid succession.

When I first started getting them months and months ago it seemed like I was getting them constantly, with just a few days between the expiration of one batch and receiving a new one.
