What are 'referrals'?

When you click on someones profile it says 'referrals 0" etc

Send a message via AIM to pgoroncy
When you create an account here it gives you the option to enter the name of a current member who told you about the site. When someone does that it gives the current member a referral.

Do the referals make any difference?

This might seem a stupid question, but what's the point of them then?

Luckily I had it removed. Named it "Bika," which is Maori for "dookie."
