I had mixed opinions of the skill system - though going from a blue to red certainly made me feel good.

I liked that it encouraged good posting behavior, though CP is an unusually heavily self-moderated community.

I worry that lack of skill points will result in more comments like "I've been here since '02, n00b", though people are pretty good at recognizing decent comments regardless of how long the poster has been a member of the community.

does vBulletin have anything set-up so that the skill-giving could be completely automated? Perhaps posters could have a percentage rating based on other user's opinions of their posts.
