What are the 'Points' in Yahoo! Answers for? :))?

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.)

Levels are another way to keep track of how active you (and others) have been. The more points you accumulate, the higher your level. Yahoo! Answers recognizes your level achievements with our special brand of thank you's!

And finally, as you attain higher levels, you'll also be able to contribute more to Yahoo! Answers - you can ask, answer, vote and rate more frequently.

Welcome here and have fun! ;-)

Yahoo Answers is for asking, answering, and discovering questions that people make. The points is so people can see how far you have gotten and also there are some things you get the higher you go.

It's partly for fun but you also get rewarded for best answers and the more points you get the higher rank you are. It's just a fun little extra! :) Also with the higher the rank you can ask and answer more questions at a time and you get a fun little surprise when you hit a new rank.

Essentially, you accumulate points so you can rise to a higher level, which then allows you to answer more questions, and therefore accumulate more points.

So you get points so you can get even MORE points.

If you get my point.
