Don't ask any questions.\n\nHang out in the Voting area and vote a lot\n\nIf you have an area of expertise, hang out in Open Questions for that area, and answer everything you can.  If you do it well, getting a Best Answer can boost your points well.

At least try real SH** to get points, to raise your level! I think my 6 yr old knows this one. Just take a wild guess?

Points aren't everything but this site is really addicting. If you don't want to lose points just don't ask questions unless you really need to know something. I agree that 5 points is too much for asking questions but I don't make the rules. I just play the game :)

You are asking about two things: posting and answering.\n\nPosting:\n0 points directly\n5 points for picking the best or calling a vote\n\nAnswering:\n2 points for answering\n10 points if your answer is picked as best. Let's say this could happen 50% of the time if you pick questions carefully.\n1 point per thumbs up. Once the site gets rolling, let's say each best answer above gets another 6 points.\n(This means each answer picked as best gets 16+2 points, but an answer not picked gets 0+2 points.)\n\nYou also get one point per day just for logging in. Adding it up, you can get an average 16 points/day by asking and answering (each) one question.\n\nYou need 4900 more points to get to level 5, so that would take 307 days. Answering/asking more than one per day will go even faster.

Hello Cheaky, welcome to the Yahoo Answer family. Start  asking questions, giving answers, casting votes, thumbs up on good answers and you will soon find your self at a good position. \n\nI am at presnt having 2600 points, as you can also locate on http://blog.360.yahoo.com/y_answrs_team. But sincerely speaking, points are not that important. To become the Yahoo Prom Queen, you need to give quality answers from your knowledge and a little help of search engines. Giving good solutions will earn you respect, which is even bigger than the points we are trying to collect. Hope you have a fun  time, side by side sharing knowledge.\n\nAs far as points are concerned, an earlier answer by my friend Jonny Quest details how to get the points the fastest.

Answer questions (2 points), rate answers or vote for best answers (1 point each), log on (1 point per day) and answer questions well (10 points per 'best answer'), and eventually you'll level up.  Think of it as an RPG for the mind ;)

Keep answering questions. The better your answers, the greater the chance for you to score points with the asker.

You need to score 360 points in 7 days - that's 51 a day (rounded up)\nYou get 1 point just for turning up each day.\nAs a level two person, every day you can answer up to 40 questions, which will earn you at least 80 points (more if some are chosen as best answer) and you can vote for a best answer on up to 40 questions, earning you another 40 points. So getting the required 360 points is certainly doable in about 3 days. If you work at it.\n\nOne very easy way of gaining points would be to pick a best answer for the questions you have asked - that gives you 3 points back each time (but remember it costs you 5 points to ask the question in the first place - bear that in mind if you're trying to keep your score high!) You might like to start by picking a best answer for this question...

You can get to level two when you accumulate 250 points. Each time you ask a question its worth -2 points, each time you answer one, it worth 2 points, if you go to discover and vote a best answer, that one point.      :)  I hope this help answer you question.

You can still gain points (Maybe even enough to move you to the next level to be able to ask more questions) by choosing best answers to your questions. (Yes I would love your ten points) and rating other peoples best answers as well as voting for questions where the asker never choose a best answer. Of course you have daily limits on these as well, but it's something

In addition to answering questions...don't forget to vote for as many as your level allows...you get one point each time you vote and it's fast and amusing.\n\nYou are level one, so you can answer 20 questions per day and vote for best answer 20 times per day...that's 60 points...once you get 250 points then you're level 2 and can do 40 and 40.\n\nsee the page below for how it all works:

To get to level 2 from level 1, you would have to earn 150 points (see scoring system page). For two days, answer 20 questions (earn 40 points), rate 20 best answers (earn 20 points) and vote on 20 undecided questions (earn 20 points). If you do this, you'll earn 160 points and get to level two easily.\n\nOf course, you lose 5 points each time you ask a question. If you do ask a question, though, be sure to go back and pick the best answer before it automatically goes to a vote after a week because you'll get 3 points back for choosing the best answer.

The more points you have, the higher level you can obtain.  Reaching higher levels means that you can participate more on the site.  On lower levels, you are limited to how many questions and answers you can post per day, and this limit gets higher and higher (as you get points) until, at level 5 and over, you can answer and ask an unlimited number of questions.
