why does it cost you points to ask a question, i thought you would
get points for asking questions instead of losing them.

answering questions earn you points, asking them costs you points that's why you must answer to get point. I know it don't make sense but that's the way the powers that be decided.

You get 2 for answering.

It's not exactly dollars, but you pay to ask and get paid for answering...makes sense?

When you ask a question, you're paying for answers. When you answer a question, you're getting paid for your answers.

Because if everyone just asked questions, no one would answer them.
