In this, my fourth or fifth incarnation at the site, being banned before, I think I have about a billion negative points.
It is a site that encourages traffic. If people read your posts you will stay on.
Negative points?, page 1

This post explains the point system:

I hope that helps. It's a little out of date.
Here's a post about the points deductions for one line posts that don't contribute to the thread:
www.abovetopsecret.com...
And if you attack other users instead of attacking their ideas, that can earn you some really big point deductions, like 500 points I think. So don't attack other members, only their ideas.

Try a 1000 pts.
Here again, it's not the same member to member. I wish it were. IMO, the system needs to be a bit more fair. It sends the wrong signals to members when it is not.

What? Where did you hear that at? Unless it is some code glitch or the aforementioned reasons you are not going to have negative points.

Just for clarity.
A warning is a 500-point deduction.
A post removed because of bad manners (Civility and decorum required) is a 1,000-point deduction.
And the comment that it (point penalties and/or your point total) depends on who you are, is nonsense. Each and every person on ATS follows exactly the same Terms and Conditions.
Seeing that the OP's question has been answered here and here.
