Im just kind of getting used to scoring on here. At first, I didn't know how to do it. Then I did it and scored everyone. Then I got on a high horse and decided to only score them if I deemed them worthy. Then I thought sod it. If it's caught my attention I'll give it some points. Now I just give them out willy nilly.

Yes when I answer..sometime I forget though and give them after..

i give points to every good question that i answer ~ its a way of acknowledging that i appreciated their question. i enjoy uprating others and i do it often. my uprating is not predicated upon whether or not they uprate my answer later.

I ALWAYS give points regardless whether I'm reciprocated or not. In many instances I give points
even before I answer the question(s). This being said, I've seen questions asked by some
users which have been answered by 10 or 15 different members, and the question has received
a decent amount of points, yet I noticed not one of those members who answered the question
and even gave points, received not a single point from the asker. I see something wrong with
that, so I don't get involved with those questions at all.

I give pts to any question I answer, although I have forgotten before & had to hit it later.
by mcdonna on June 15th, 2009
I will only answer a question if I think it is good so I always give points to the asker first because they deserve it :)
by Ironhead on June 15th, 2009
I point every question that I answer and then some that I don't answer but like the question.

If I think it is a good question, I will point it, before I even answer.

I usually rate the question before opening the question link.
by Duck on June 15th, 2009
I have tried to rate several of the questions I have answered. I attempt to click on it and nothing happens. Is this because I am a rather new member or could it be that i'm using dial up for my isp?

yepp when i answer i give points to the asker

I usually give points when I click on it, but sometimes I forget. I don't understand the points system, is it anyone deserves a point and only spam deserves to be marked down? Because I get marked down a lot for answers I give, and I thought that was only meant for those who spam or troll. hmmps
by wing.walker on June 15th, 2009
I try to remember to give points either just before or just after answering the question. Waiting until the questioner gives me points seems kind of silly.
by Big on June 15th, 2009
I always give pts to the question when I answer. Unless of course they won't let me. Sometimes I answer one person's questions so much I can't give anymore
by catlover66 on June 15th, 2009
I always give points to questions I can answer and people who answer my questions whether I like their answer or not.
by Kitt-tastrophy on June 15th, 2009
I give points when I answer! Not like you can ever tell for certain that the asker gave you any points at all!
by Ice man on June 15th, 2009
I give points to good questions and answers alike, whether I answer or not. I won't give points to someone who is a rude asshole, but I don't downrate either. Lately I've noticed that there are a lot of people who want to get points but don't want to give any. I don't understand this greedy practice, you can't save the points for yourself and you can't cash them in for a free trip to Disneyland so why not give points away ?!?
If you could put all of your answers in a bag full of answers, how many answers could you bag?

isnt forums like answerbag just stopping people from learning things for themselves, and making them less independent?
