What did I do to have points go down?

When I came back on yahoo answers, it said Alert, you are points down. What did I do to go down in points? So I wont do it again. Can you just show me or tell me what I did, that is all I want to know. If you do something wrong where do you go to find out what it was? I would like to know from the people on the board so there will be no guessing or wondering. Don't you do that? Tell someone what they did?

    You lose 5 points for asking, but wouldn't come up with an alert message, usually that's for if your in violation of the guidelines and have being reported, where you lose 12 points, it says 11 due to the visiting point you get.

    Check your activity details. You're the only one that can answer this question.

    Usually, when you get this alert message, it means that you got a violation and one of your questions or answers were deleted. But some people get it even without a violation because of some glitch.

    Check your email for violation notices, and don't forget to check the spam folder.

    I believe that you lose points if you ask questions and also if your posts are reported as abusive -read the rules it should be clearer in there.
