What Yahoo! Answers stat is the most important to you?

I know a lot of people just come on here to answer and ask questions and don't really care about points and stats, but I think that at some level we all feel some satisfaction when we level up or get a better best answer percentage.

So which stat would you miss the most if they stopped calculating it? Points? Levels? Best answer percentage? Total answers? What?

    Nothing to me about Yahoo is important, I can see immediately you don't believe me, that is your problem not mind. Let me say I mean nothing in any way to demean your question by saying this.

    You say you know a lot of people just come on here to answer and ask questions and do not care about points and stats. That fits me to a tee. Yahoo today in my opinion as become a cesspool for what in my opinion amounts to degenerates posing as TM of its community who take a sick delight in reporting others who are simply trying to post and answer or ask questions as human beings.

    Take away the points from everyone, take away the silly TC badges from a small minority on Yahoo then you would have a much better contented forum. This will never happen and is just my opinion of a major problem Yahoo have.

    Please do not misunderstand what I'm saying. I would never condone abuse but true abuse no longer exists on Yahoo forums. The true abuse comes from the individuals you are trusted with policing the Yahoo community rules.
