Brick On Our Profile

On our profile there is a category entitled "Bricks" and I don't know what it means. It's below the post count and above the birthday.
I have three, and I am getting scared as to what these "bricks" are for.

It's how many you have left to shit.

On-Topic: They are like“points” you get from the thanks button

Light has it right

Oh I see, that helps. Thanks guys.

The higher amount of bricks a person has, the more liekly I am to declare or consider them a moderator.

You should thanks someone when they help you on your post

For instance, I thanked light (with the little plus) for answering your post.
