Points are what lets you download the bigger files here (Mostly PSX and PSP ISOs)They're working (Not sure if they finished it yet :P) on making it so that any file over a set limit (I think they decided around 75MB or so) would cost points.As far as acquiring points, there's a bunch of ways to do it, like just sitting around and doing nothing, which will net you 50 points a day. (150 if you're a premium member) and you can also leave comments for various games and upload screenshots for 5 points a picture (I think it's 2 for comments but don't hold me to that)If you have any further questions, we'll be sure to try our best to answer them :)

comments don't yield points anymore, we had too much comment spam so had to disable that.Asmadi is correct otherwise, although I will clarify that your screenshots must be approved by the admin team before you receive the points, and roms/ISOs over 75MB compressed do indeed cost points (1pt per MB roughly)in addition, awfreak, you might want to read this page: https://www.romulation.org/introduction.php as that is the page you couldn't find. I will speak to Seph about making it a bit more obvious.
