I just reached level 6 , why is it that I have to answer 14000 answers to get to level 7 ?

Why does it have to take so long to get to the next level ?

Update:

It really is about 15000 answers

  • That's just the way Y!A is set up. After hitting level 5 with its unlimited answers there's really not much difference in Y!A levels.

    It doesn't take that long to go from level 6 to level 7, just keep answering & voting...

    because they want there level 7 users to really have to work for it.

    and if you answer good and get selected as a best answer say at least once every 10 answers then it takes alot less than 14000 answers

    If you check it out, you'll see each further level takes about twice as many points as the previous level. Earning higher levels is supposed to mean something, so it takes a LOT more effort.

    After accomplishing point 7, i could ask extra questions, yet i'm no longer asking any desirable now considering you lose factors. yet in a very pressing remember i could. basically I did ask one approximately why a member had her account closed. to ward off asking questions now, if i opt to properly known something i bypass to Google, Wikipedia, and answer Bag, it truly is somewhat like Y/A
