The point is that any sane person is on here to learn not to amass points! Its sadder than stamp collecting. And i dont agree that "thanks for the 2 points" is used to say that a question is rubbish.

I could never understand geeks!

And finally the whole point in Yahoo answers is to get opinions and information, not points.....Sadoes!

2006-09-14 04:44:31 · update #7

How is asking a question like this abusive? Surely the point of Yahoo answers is to build knowledge. Come on Yahoo whats your position on this. I think, as many others do, that saying "thanks for the 2 points" is abusing Yahoo Answers as it is CHEATING!!!!

Probably because they don't really have anything useful to say or are completely clueless on the topic.

I'm not going to bother thanking you for the two points, as that is retarded. You didn't earn these points for me - I earned them for myself.

People provide that answer because they lack the ability to say something more intelligent, and believe that if they simply accumulate points, their lack of knowledge and insight will not be as apparent.

Higher levels on YA open the doors to other activities in which you cannot otherwise engage. This is no different from any other game, where the advantages of playing over time translate into more opportunities to interact with the community.

Hope that helps explain things.

Because there fishing for points if you mean if they just answer thanks for the 2 points then they are just fishing/ getting and easy 2 points Is that is What you are asking and I think Yahoo is slowing doing something about that I believe I read they remove 2 points if they do that or there going to do something like that

1. whats the point of using y answers if you dont collect points?
2. whats the point in asking stupid questions that require stupid answers?
3. why not answer with a yes not whatever for 2 points rather than loose 5 by asking?

I had to laugh when I saw this question, because I knew half the answers would just say thanks for 2 points. It's quite amusing really, it doesn't hurt anybody, and it gives them a hobby. Try to tolerate them. I think of them as little elves running around laughing and clearing up the 2 points lying around. The only problem with getting points for asking a question would be could you imagine the questions we would get? "Who likes cheese", "Is it?", "Do I look fat?", etc. bad enough already.

Watch it - when I asked what people expected to do with their points and suggested that after all, they weren't green stamps, I got a bloody violation notice for it, which I'm currently fighting over because I'm not prepared to take that nonsense because some t*t out there reported it as abuse !!!!

if by giving someone an answer you can help him,it's worth it.if you feel better by having a beer or some small gossip go right ahead.sometimes a few words can change a life, save it, or direct it in a better way.i think that this is worth much more than 5 minutes spent on it, or some points.happy? :)

Actually, I enjoy answering questions on this thing. It's pretty cool to give others advice and know you're helping someone out! Who cares about the points - let's help each other! :)

I suppose that there are some people who just want to amass as many points as possible so they give any answer they can.

Thanks for the 2 points!!!

Sorry, couldn't resist

People don't have to get a prize in order to get 2 points. They can answer questions as if they want.
