Why set up this system?
Since, I developed alone and I still do not have enough time to really ensure the support of my creations desired by the users of my components. It takes a long time to respond to all requests for support and requests for additional functionality. I spend a lot of time to develop, therefore, I have less to participate in support.
So I had the idea of creating a community of support around my central points system AlphaUserPoints applied to my own site!

Yes but what to do points earned?
All my components are free, then what to do with points earned?
These points, for example, you can insert a text link for a certain period or an insert advertising on the home page. Alphaplug has a good pagerank and visibility on the net.
Points can be used instead Payal with MVC generator Pro Edition (only  tool with a payment on this site).

This is a beginning.
