-Voting to your daily limit (1 point per vote)
-Logging in every day (1 point per visit per day)
-Resolving ALL of your open questions (3 points each)
-Ensuring that you're answers can be picked as best (10 points, plus up to fifty points for thumbs-ups)
You lose points by…
-Asking questions (-5 points per question)
-Having a question removed by Yahoo! due to violating the guidelines (-10 points for removed questions)
-Deleting an answer (-2 points per removed answer)
-Having an answer reported or removed (-2 points per removed answer)

You need a total of 1,000 points to get to the next level, Level 3.
You have a total of 935 points, you only need to gain another 65 points to get there.
The best way to gain points and higher levels is to answer and vote to your limit each day, whatever level you are on.
Visit each day - 1 point
On Level 2 you can ask 10 questions, answer 40 questions, and vote 40 times each day.
Answer to your limit each day - 2 points each answer - 40 answers - 80 points
Hope for some best answers - 10 points each best answer plus 1 point for every thumbs up on a best answer (maximum 50 points)
Vote to your limit each day - 1 point each vote - 40 votes - 40 points
If you ask a question, -5 points, pick a best answer, you get 3 points back.
You can see all the levels and points required using the link or by clicking your avatar to get to your profile page and clicking the blue ? beside "Total Points".
