Kind of like when you lose points for a speeding ticket - 3 years later, you get them back.

That way people who "slip up" aren't branded for life.
Yeah, something like that would be great, but it's another thing that's not in the forum software unfortunately.

Well that only makes sense, since that's the whole goal of the skill system is to recognize posters which make posts that contribute. If someone only posts once a month they're not going to get much skill, and I don't think that's a problem.

We have been discussing it though and are contemplating different options on changes to improve it.
