For example, do you add items to your wishlist that you don't actually want and make widgets that you don't actually need?
Do you do stuff on EdenFantasys that you don't really need to just to earn points?
I think everyone does it sometimes, and people who say they don't are just.. I don't want to call anyone a liar, because I know some people care less about points. But Eden wouldn't choose a business model they couldn't afford, you know? They wouldn't give us the opportunity to earn points doing things if they couldn't afford the upkeep. So, why would it be morally wrong or looked down upon to promote their website? Every review, every search, every discussion post links Eden to more searches on Google and other search engines, and it brings it in profit and customers. Not everyone has discounts on the toys, or the products offered, so when people who aren't reviewers buy, Eden gets a lot of profit and is able to fund toys for reviewers like us.
Most of what I do every day is on the site and what I do normally, ie; posting in forums, commenting on new reviews, commenting on old reviews, following new people. It's a part of staying active on the site, but I think everyone, when they've got their eye on that perfect toy that would normally break the bank, saves up and looks at the list to see what they may not have done. That's just me. I won't call anyone a liar, but I think it's impossible to put 'never.' Sex toys can get pricey for quality, we all know that and we all appreciate Eden for making our lives touched a bit more by toys that we can share with others and learn more about OURSELVES with. Point farming is kind of eh, if that's your thing, that's your thing, and others just come on the site and review and post occasionally. But either way, I don't think Eden itself put the generous limits on the daily allowance to discourage us from reaching it. Every product sold is still money they can put into furthering their website and making it a great place for us all.

I used to do a lot of stuff I didn't need to do - but now I'm more like this post above - if I need some extra points for making an order I will do some unnecessary stuff - but eh...not so much.

Not really. I will do a few things that I don't normally include if I just need under $2.00 points to make my order, but other than that, no.
Of course right now I'm in the middle of writing a ton of reviews and those take up a lot of my time.

This, at least, is the same for me. I've been wasting some odd hours on here today and I'm definitely past the point of getting points.

Not really, no. I always interact when I feel like it, it's not for points at all. I just enjoy answering polls and posting on the forums.

In the past month, I have set a daily goal of 200 points, but it is hard to say what is necessary and what isn't. Are comments on reviews necessary? Comments on products? Whether you like it or not?
I stick to things I have an interest in, so I am going to say they are necessary, though others might say otherwise.

Thanks for the all the votes and comments while I was gone, guys!
@ Ms. N: I know what you mean. Before I was very active with the site, I was only getting 74 points a day (and I was amazed by that). Now that I've active and have found enjoyment in the forums and the like, I usually make over 200 if I'm not on a lot during a day or over 400 points if I am on a lot.

I dont see a reason not to, the points are an incentive for people to make the site look active which will draw in new customers and make more money for ED.
