1) when a use signs up, and uses your name as a reference.
2) when another user goes to your profile page, and clicks Send Point.
A user can send one point per week. In addition, there is a delay that increases and decreases in direct correlation to the frequency that a user sends points to another user.
When you send a point, you have to wait 7 days to send another one. Once you reach that 8th day, you can send another point. If you do, your delay is now 14 days. So on the 22nd day, you can send another point, but now your delay is 21 days. Each time you send a point, you accumulate a delay of 7 days before you can send that person another point.
If you let, time pass, and say on the 8th day, you do not send a point, then your delay is now six days. And if you wait until the 15th, then your delay is now zero days. If you send a point, you have to wait a week (that's always) and your delay is now seven days. If on the 22nd, you send another point, your delay is now 14 days, and you cannot send another point until the 4th/5th of the next month.
