Hug them and pet them and call them George.
Accumulate a bunch and you get to answer and ask more questions. It's Yahoo's way of getting us addicted to our computers. But you get to hang out with me, so it's not all bad, right??

Get more. Not sure that it's beneficial, but it isn't harmful.
I think occasionally Yahoo offers some kind of prize for most points, but you and I will never reach that point, since there are not enough hours in the day.
Some of these people's entire lives appear to be devoted to this site. I have better things to do, but enjoy getting on line once or twice a week.

ask questions and more questions. Half the fun is seeing whether you were witty enough to earn that best answer. I also enjoy reading others opinions and may actually learn something along the way. If nothing else you may find a laugh or two in here... have a great time collecting!!! (LOL)

try to pay off your violations. Won't do much good though. Yahoo won't even redeem them for you. Aw heck. More points you got, more trouble you can get into.
Actually, when you get to another level "Answers" will send you a little note in the mail telling what they mean.

It's not about the points it's about helping people. But anyway you can't do anything with the points except for earn them; answer questions and lose them;ask questions. Sorry if I am no help

Well, I got an e-mail saying this woman had a lot of points and since she was remodeling her bathroom, she got a huge discount.

They're just, well, there. I like to look at them accumulate. I just like helping people, and this is the forum for me to do it! Numbers going higher are just a side bonus.

They are just used to determine levels. The higher the level (5 and above) answering questions is unlimited,etc.

nothing. that's why i ask questions all the time, points here are worthless. sometimes during holidays though, Y! will send you gifts. the more points you have, the better gift you get.
