Does anyone get how this whole point thing works on yahoo answers?

Yahoo wants us to answer, not ask. :)Does anyone get how this whole point thing works on yahoo answers?
Emfer,


Point system works this way


You answer questions 2 points are earned


vote for undecided questions 1 point


once a day log in 1 point


choose the best answer for your question 3 points


choose after 4 hours


if you answer a questions and its chosen as best 10 points


rated best one more point.


The above is the earned points.


Now the lost points


Asking questions you lose 5 points this doesn't matter what the level is


deleting an answer you lose 2 points


violations cost 10 points


a loss at an appeal cost another 10 points.


-


Depending what level you are on will determine how many questions you can ask answer vote on


Points encourage people to participate in the earn points


yahoo answers uses points and levels to detemine how active the participant is.


For example if a person has 110 points this is level 1


for them to get level 2 they need another 140 points.

points are yahoo's way of having some control





you get 100 for signing up (But you only get that once)





you get 1 point for signing in (once every day)





you get 1 for voting





2 for answering





and 10 for getting picked as a best answer








if you ask a question you loose 5





the points are categorized into different levels





each level gets a higher quota of daily questions, answers, and voting.

The point system is easy, the other guys have told you how it works..what is not so easy to comprehend is the violations system.Someone doesn't like a question or answer you give and you get a violation notice and they take 10 points off you.They give you a chance to appeal, but they always turn you down. We all get them all of the time, so don't worry about it.
yes I do
