Question on the numbers under members name on ATS

Hi, i'm a new member and just noticed that when I post I get those numbers under my name :

P34 F112 S200 W0.11

I think I understand what the first three are about, but am a bit puzzled at the W0.11 ?
Especially since it's a "fraction" so to speak...

EDIT : Ewwwww and in the middle of me asking in this thread and people answering now there is a new line saying KARMA: 2,370

I don't see any numbers....

me either....lol

Well for example yours say : P13096 F280 S912 W1.28

I don't understand what the W is for nor why it's not a whole number...

P is for posts.. (your post count)

F is for flags.. (flags accumilated)

S is for Stars.. (stars accumilated)

W is for wats.. (Your "ranking" against other members in term of quality content posted)

P its for Points. When you make a post or theard you'll get a point.

F is for Flags, how many flagged your post total.

S is for star. If somebody gives you a star (Actually I dont know where to use it lol )

And for the last, I dont remember.

Yes yes, as I said earlier I had already guesses the first 3, it's just the W and why it isn't a whole number...

Read the post before his.

The W is for WATS

..And P is for posts, not points.

Sorry am going to ask you to explain because i don't know what WATS mean, and the only definition I could find in an online dictionnary said :

WATS (WIde Area Telephone Service)

I hyperlinked it both times. If you click on it, you'll be taken to what it means to us on ATS.

I has low Karma...

Oh ok thanks ! I hadn't noticed the hyperlink at all, am still not used to the ATS formatting yet, and now did you notice that new Karma one that just appeared in the middle of this thread ?

Wasn't here when I started the thread... Coincidence ?

That and your affinity for Boy George.

What is Karma?? And how does one attain more? It sounds yummy.
