You've seen all these bars with HP, PP and EXP next to everyone's posts but don't know what they mean? They function pretty much like they do in the Pokémon games, but in case you don't understand, here's a quick rundown of what they each mean and how they are affected;
HP
Hp is based on user activity.
Max HP is based on the user's level, and will generally
be the same for all users of the same level.
A user's current HP is based on the user's posts per day.
A higher post per day (ppd), the more HP they will have. A
user with an average PPD (set below) will have 50% of their
max HP. As a user goes over the average PPD, they will have
more HP, but the gains will decrease as the user's PPD increases.
This makes achieving 100% hp difficult, but not impossible.
For users with under the average PPD, they will have HP equal to 1/2 the percentage their ppd is of the average.
ie- a user with 2.5 ppd, and an average ppd of 5 will have 25% of their max HP. This is because 2.5 is 50% of 5, and 1/2 of that, is 25%.
Users who manage to post so far above the average that they have
more HP than their max will recieve a bonus to their max HP.
PP
PP is calculated by how long the user has been around and how often they post.
Max PP is based on level, and increases with level. Each post a user makes costs them PP, and a user regenerates PP proportional to how many days they have been registered.
EXP
Experience is determined by how far the user is away from the next level. This is expressed as a percentage.
