Answer points for what? Or what's the point?

So, like I answer these questions, right? And I get these "points", right? And do what with them? Like redeem them for a round the world trip or something like that? Or are they basically useless...

    no, basically they are useless, but if u ask a lot of questions, you need to answer questions to make more points to ask those questions. You get ranked into levels for how many points you have. Go to this website:
