Why is my level now -1?

Question

Do I not have right to ask?

Answer 1

Because you used all the points. Answer more questions and you should be able to ask questions.

Answer 2

Points and Levels

To encourage participation and reward great answers, Yahoo! Answers has a system of points and levels. The number of points you get depends on the specific action you take. The points table below summarizes the point values for different actions. While you can't use points to buy or redeem anything, they do allow everyone to recognize how active and helpful you've been. (And they give you another excuse to brag to your friends.)

The more points you accumulate, the higher your level.


Level 7 = 25000+ Points
Level 6 = 10,000 - 24,999 Points
Level 5 = 5,000 - 9,999 Points
Level 4 = 2,500-4,999 Points
Level 3 = 1,000-2,499 Points
Level 2 = 250-999 Points
Level 1 = 1-249 Points

Answer 3

Yep, you have a right to ask.
But the way the point system is set, if you choose a best answer you lose 2 points/question asked. If you don't choose a best answer, you lose 5 points.

It kind of penalizes the true philosophers out there who question everything and also question the answers they're given.
If I were you, I'd treat it like golf... right now you're 1 under par, which is kickass compared to everyone else.

Peace

Answer 5

You have to answer peoples questions to get points. There are different levels the more points you get the higher level you will be in.

Answer 6

you've been asking too many questions. you points have gone into the negatives! don't worry though. asking questions permanently is what separated us from the animals. so ask questions, but answer some too.

Because you have asked more questions than you have answered.
