Can someone explain to me what the point system on this site is for?
Thanks

that's a good question. The points really don't have any value. They are basically a system and rewards active yahoo answers with...well, more points. I suppose there is a certain amount of pride or a sense of accomplishment for recieving a lot of points, but beside that, they have very little value. However, the more points you get the more answers, questions, votes, etc. you are allowed to make per day, but other than that the points are not reallly redeamable for anything.

It's a good way to keep track of how much time you are wasting. After a year, the top ten percent of users will be taken out and shot because they obviously have no real life and nothing better to do with their time.

They are like "Whose Line" points, points don't mean anything. So I am giving you 1000 pts.!!!!!

Can't buy you anything. Just means that you can ask more questions every day.
