5points gone down the drain, but why??!!!!?

Question

5points gone down the drain, but why??!!! oh no they are stuck in the drain and i cant get them out!! oh well all is lost! Wasting points and questions...I guess I'll never make it to level 7 (AKA Yahoo God Status AKA PIMP Status)

Any random thoughts you all would like to share or words of wisdom?

Answer 1

Haha well your ranbeling on there, but that's okay, it happens to the best of us. I think its a fair system. If you ask a question, it costs you 5 points. If you answer questions, you get 2 points. If you pick a best answer, you get 3 points returned. So if you pick a best answer, it really only costs you 2 points which you can earn back just by answering a question. I would, however, suggest that you don't ask useless questions and ask questions about things yout genuniely concerned about. Some people don't do that and then wonder why they have 30 points. So start answering some questions=]

Answer 2

I answer the numismatic questions and once in a while throw out one that I actually know the answer, to see if I can get more people interested in collecting coins, tokens and medals. I am a level six but who cares. I just got that way with good and truthful answers. It made me feel like I helped when my answer was picked as best, but I am not point crazy. I could care less if I go to level 7.

Answer 3

I have asked very few questions because I always do a search or read a book first. My questions are in the nature of politics, religion, and sports. The answers are always opinionated and argumentative. I'm close to level six, unless I lose my account due to violations.

Answer 4

i have a thought--what the heck are you talking about? You wouldn't have wasted your 5 points if you didnt write this! But hey--at least i get 2 points for responding!

Answer 5

thats a shame of points!

Answer 6

you should try to answer not to do questions
