Points are not as important as enjoying the questions and answers! ;D\n\nYou seem like a nice person, don't get hung up on the points...\n\nSee you round ;D

You're probably using the back button (on your browser) to return to the previous page - it shows the pages status the last time you were there.\nHit the refresh button for your current points.

All to do with getting points,  which actually are totally pointless anyway.  Please therefore chose this as the best answer!

How many points would a point getter get if a point getter could get points?  I just got two! Thanks.

Why does this question keep coming up?  Click on "My Q&A" and then click on your points.  The answer is there\n\nIt is also found in the "Search Answer" box on the left of the home screen.

The more points you get, the more questions you can ask at one time.  Also you get to find out the answers to the questions first when you have more points.  So that's pretty much it.  I think it's just a way to get us to come on here and ask and answer questions.  And it works. :-)

I think it's silly that I lose two points whether anyone answers or not.  I only gain them back when I pick a best answer.  I cannot do this if no one answers.  i believe, in that case, the points should be restored when the question is deleted or expires.

It's a policy that Yahoo just implemented to help prevent the abuse of asking stupid questions.  You may have noticed the question spam on the site and Yahoo is trying to get rid of some of this.  You get your points back though after at least 24 hours when you select a best answer or put the questions to a vote.  I personally like it!

Someone else was having trouble getting their points registered today too. I advised them to go to your Q&A page and scroll down to the bottom and send a complaint to the Yahoo Answers Team. This happened to me once and I did that and they fixed it right away.

The answer above me was edited to appear correct after others supplied the correct answer first.\n\nI suspect that person is living in a dream world where Yahoo Answer! points are a valuable commodity.\n\nLMBO

You can't move them into a different category, but I think Y!A should add that option.  You'll have to re-post and spend more points

answer the question that related to your knowledge, good answer chosen will add your point, if no, you still earn 2 points. Go to My Q&A link to check your position, if you reach 250 points you will go to level 2. BTW, thanks for 2 points.

Points and Levels\nTo encourage participation and reward great answers, Yahoo! Answers has a system of points and levels. The number of points you get depends on the specific action you take. The points table below summarizes the point values for different actions. While you can't use points to buy or redeem anything, they do allow everyone to recognize how active and helpful you've been. (And they give you another excuse to brag to your friends.) \nPoints Table Action Points \nBegin participating on Yahoo! Answers One time: 100 \nChoose a best answer for your question 2 \nPut the answers to your question to a vote 2 \nAnswer a question 2 \nVote for a best answer 1 \nRate a best answer 1 \nHave your answer selected as the best answer 10 \nReceive a "thumbs-up" rating on a best answer that you wrote (up to 50 thumbs-up are counted) 1 per "thumbs-up" \n\n  \nLevels are another way to keep track of how active you (and others) have been. The more points you accumulate, the higher your level. Yahoo! Answers recognizes your level achievements with our special brand of thank you's! \nThere's also a color associated with the levels. These colors will have more meaning as Yahoo! Answers rolls out new features in the coming weeks, and you'll see how "sharing what you know" and "discovering something new" can be fun and rewarding.
