Are you asking if I get points for answering questions: That's where I get the majority of my points. Are you asking if anyone can get points for answering questions? Yes. If the answer is good or can make people laugh, MOST of the time you will get points. You can get points for asking good or funny questions, or those that people want to know the answers to, and you can get points for answering almost ANY question, if the answer is helpful, good, explanatory, or funny. Not everyone gives points, there are those who are picky about certain things that may give negative points, there are those who will not agree with you and give negative points, and there are trolls, buttheads, and kids who think giving negative points for the reactions to be fun. (Don't sweat the negative points so much... They only show displeasue - or idiocy - about an answer, they don't lower your points for levels. They also go against your question/answer percentages, but it's not too difficult to keep them high. They DO hit those who gave them in the ratings category, and when people have very low "percentage +ratings given" the tend to downrate (DR) WAY too much - some are trolls. Just ask and answer and have fun. The points take care of themselves, usually. ;-)

I think you are missing the point.
