After a few weeks of inactivity this is the only logical conclusion

You get 3 but if you don't use three then you fall down to 2.

what year do you get 3

? i'm sure you should be getting 3 already... it used to be around 30,000 points but then it was reduced to around 8,000. Now I don't know what it is.

no, still only have 2. here was my latest meme:

You should be getting three. But if you don't post for a while (or only post one), you fall down to two, but usually if you post two, the next day it goes back up to three. There must be something odd with your account.

it's humorous in a way
