How do I go from level one to level two?

If you ask questions, you have to wait for four (4) hours after asking the question in order to choose the "best answer." That's to give folks a fair chance to log in and find your question. Many of us log on and off periodically during the day and we may not be online when you posted.

Once the four (4) hours have elapsed, go back to view the question. You can do that by clicking on "My Profile" near the top the page, right hand side under the word "discover."

Once you're at your profile, look under your avatar (photo) and you'll see a list of all the questions you've answered plus a tab you can click to see the questions where you were chosen as "best answer," the questions you've asked and the questions you've starred.

Click on the word questions and you'll see the list of your questions, click the question and it shows you not only the question but all the answers. There will be a blue box under each answer. Click the box of the answer you liked best. You will get 3 points for choosing.

Be sure you pick the "best answer" before the time for answering expires or it'll be too late, it'll go into voting.

IF YOU DIDN'T ASK THE QUESTION, to vote on unresolved questions click the "answer" toolbar at the top of the page then click on the "vote" tab and it'll show you a bunch of questions in voting.

Anyone can vote on unresolved questions or choose "best answer" to their own question but to "rate" with thumbs up or thumbs down you have to be on level 2 or higher and that means you have to have 250 or more points.

Once you get 250 points, you're on level 2; reach 1000 points and you're level 3, etc. unless your points drop you back down to a lower level because you asked too many questions or whatever.

You can vote there's a difference between voting and Rating (thumbs up or down). Yes, you have to be on level 2 to rate. You can get 20 points today added to your score by voting on undecided or tiebreaker questions.

One of the quickest ways I've found to get to a level is use the power of unanswered questions. By answering those you're usually the only answerer and by default you'll get best answer.

you need to be level 2 before you can vote, you've not long to go keep on asking and answering and you will be level 2 in no time OK

You need 250 points for level 2

Here is a list of what point are needed for each level

level 1 > 1-249

Level 2 > 250-999
