Indeed, yebellz, if everyone followed the rule (+1 every user, not post, before you) then this would be a pyramid scheme.
Although of interesting note is the discrepancy between Sarg and D33 near the top. Three have posted and not given +1 to D33 presumably because he is muted. KA, meanwhile, has only one less than zultar, which is the correct amount less he should have. Interesting what it says about mutes, no? KA in particular should be very proud of this development.
