changed their mind midstream, and decided to award cash prizes for points?  Would you regret wasting 5 points on pointless questions like this one?  And how much would you regret it?

I'M NOT SURE BUT I WOULD ENJOY READING POINTLESS QUESTIONS LIKE THIS ONE SO I WOULD BE BUILDING UP MY POINTS FOR THE CASH.

Well dear, you need to understand some of these ppl are from all over the world.  It wouldn't be easy if you had to type in a question in French or Japanese.  As for questions that makes no sense, i'm sure they opened a few accounts so that they can give their accounts more points for whatever reason.  Maybe you can get some cash out of it?

Peace and love throughout the land. :) Or you can exchange that for what is behind curtain #2.......but I gotta warn ya. That rice a roni just might have been sitting there behind the curtain a tad too long to be enjoyable. \n\nlol but seriously........I have no idea what we are awarded for points, but this is so fun nonetheless! I love all the questions people come up with. Such fun! Isn't that just about reward enough? :)

I only answer if i can give good answers.  I think its a shame that people give quips or snarky comments for answers.  I asked a few myself and It always irked me when I had to peruse through those to get the morsel that I spent points to see.  I'm not sure how the point system works but I think that they should alow the askers of questions to not award points for bad answers.  (if you get points indiscriminantly for answering)

It depends on which side of the coin they are some are here just to kill time and get out their boredom indeed may not take things seriously , I would say just like there are answers like those there are questions who merely deserve nothing but those answers,Lots of ppl don´t even read the details, or read just so fast to move onto the next question  to gain 2 more points that completely missunderstand it.Some ppl have missed the main purpouse of this website by just wanting to gain points so is life huh? =)

Yeah sure..but why waste 5 points to post this question?? And what happens after the 30 days anyway?

When i just started (a month ago) i used to spend 2 - 4 hours daily hooked up in here answering just to get the points. Afterwards i realized that the points were just imaginary rewards... i really get no money or tangible prizes for the time spent!\n\nso when i got to level three i layd back :-)\nnow i only do 1 hour every two days. I use the spare time to read and... you know.. live!

lol....I couldn't agree more....I also think they should put a get yo A** whiped category for people who really ask those questions that you should've have learned the answers to at 5.

Don't take it seriously. I got one of these as well and got angry, and then I realized these violation watchers do not have the skills to recognize  rhetoric.\n\nI am afterall look at WHERE we are wasting our time...

To be quite honest, when I first started this thing I thought I needed them to compete, but lately I have seriously taken an interest in some of the questions and I realized I do not need that many points. Do you notice how some people answer questions like they don't even care. I think everyone should take the time and be more sensitive to alot of the smarter questions.

That's a question I'd waste 5 points on....NOT

You already asked this question. So technically you wasted ten points. Thanx 4 the 2! :)

Then why are you here to waste 5 points?

that seems like a pretty smart idea. on the zipline, i would gave rocked back and forth to gain momentum, like they did. after getting the bag, i would hurl it as far as i could, and swim fast over to get it, then repeat till i got to shallower water.\n\nPoor Flicka....I forget his name, but that sneaky white guy on that team should have been voted off in my opinion.....cant remember his name.......\n\nnext week, Jeff says "you have 10 seconds to decide if you want to change your fat in this game".....I am looking foward to it!!\n\nbtw, im gonna give you some thumbs ups...im in a good mood!\n\n\n=)

It's a little pointless and egotistical to do so. The idea of this site is that we collect information from various viewpoints, and then allow others to judge the value of the content.\n\nVoting for your own answer defeats the purpose, so certainly is unethical. It's most likely against Yahoo!'s rules too.\n\nI can't imagine how anyone can feel they've 'won' by voting on their own answers - it seems SO childish. There are no prizes and no bragging rights here - we're all just trying to share our experience and information.

Is this seriously a question? you just wasted two points, buddy.
