Oh, and a few more important things:
If there is a Jelly who you relate well with, are interested in, asks good questions, or whatever reason, you can go to their profile by clicking on their name (or searching), and at the top right there are two bars: “message” and “follow”.
-“Message” sends them a private message. This will show up in their “Messages for you” tab.
-“Follow” will add them to your fluther. Your fluther is a group of Jellies that you choose based on whatever reason. New questions that they ask will also show up in the “Just for you” tab.
The awards were an extra perk that was added around 2010. It’s just for achieving certain things. Here is a list of those achievements.
Last, but certainly not least: Lurve
Lurve is a point system here to congratulate you on your contributions to the site. It shows up right next to your name. (It’s the number, your lurve score is currently 56).
-Below every answer is a “Great Answer!” button. If you think someone’s answer is great, click on it to award them lurve for their excellent response. This will add 5 to their lurve score.
-Next to every question, there is a “Great Question” button. If you think a Jelly asked a great question, click on it and you will add 3 to their lurve score.
