What HP and TP is: That's how much you post. The less you post per day (on average), the less HP you have and the more TP you get (TP is calculated by how long you've been here and how often you post). Each post you make takes off some TP and replenishes some HP.

To make it simpler, someone with almost low HP and high TP most likely is a member who's been here for a while and posts once in a blue moon. Someone with a high HP and low TP bar is probably a post wh0re.

What EXP and levels are: That refers to your pure, unrefined post count. Each post you make adds to your EXP. When your EXP bar goes full, you gain one level.

What it all comes to: ...Nothing! Those wee little bars mean absolutely nothing. You don't gain priviledges or custom stuff, no, nothing, nada, zilch. Its only purpose is to make you enjoy the big pretty numbers.

Big thanks to Watashiwa for explaining the whole thing. All I really did is make a separate post just about it. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

You left some stuff out.

If you see a user at a same level as another user with a higher max HP, it's because their average numer of posts per day is higher than the set board average and that user's average post per day, which I set at I think 5, plus that user's average.

If your post per day is high and you are lower leveled, your HP max bonus is higher than what would be received for a higher level person as well. So if you see a level 5 person with 500 HP and a level 10 person with the near same amount of HP. It's because the level 5 person is:

A) New to the boards.
B) Has been posting quite a bit. (Probably has like 25-30 average posts per day.)

If they don't post, their HP bonus will deteriorate over time.

Damn..now if only people would read this thread before posting like all the others. =X

I bet if you put a thread like this stickied at the top of every forum, there'd still be threads about the purty status bars =

No, I just figured that it would be locked for being another thread about stats, I have nothing against you or this thread, hopefully everyone will read this and there won't be anymore locked threads...

Hey, I was wondering about it, and clicked on the first forum that came to mind as a likely place to find an explanation, and I found it right away. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

However, I noticed that even after posting once, my HP bar still read zero. I guess I'm officially a talking dead person. X_x Perhaps I should be seeing the entire board enveloped in red, with a javascript-run window anchored to the bottom left-hand corner of my screen asking me "Do you want to return to Pioneer 2?
Yes / No "

...Heh. Anyway, I assume that means it rounds down HP amounts. ^_^ Now if you'll excuse me, I'm officially dead right now, soooo.... http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

they also took 150 lines of code to process per post and slowed down everything. and mr gideon said off with its head so off it went.
