273 now\n267 \nI think you should reward the person with the least points they need it most. why not help them out? but click on their name first to make sure they are being honest. \nI think people like you make yahoo a better place thanks.\nyou use 5 points so someone else can gain 12 points

Its more than likely to just get the points..they don't care what they are writing...I was guilty of it and still do sometimes to the really stupid questions but I try and give as best an answer as I can!

It's like that show, 'Whose line is it anyway?'\n\nThe points don't really matter :)\n\nTo Blahb31:\n\nI think it would be rather ironic for someone to ask a question about the logic behind the points just to award themselves best answer....and get 10 points.  Pfft, teachers...:)

Well it looks like you did a good enough job of answering the question yourself.  Thanks for the points though.

Well I suppose you could but what is the point ( no pun intended) in just gaining points. I have a very low opinion of those who do anything to gain points. Two points please

Want to ask so many more, but the points system is set against that.\n\nWhole thing needs a re-think if you ask me.\n\nAnd that will cost you 5 points.

I agree with you. I think people do it to accumulate points rather than present a worthwhile and thought out answer. I asked some serious questions and received some smart aleck answers myself. Some of them displayed quite a sense of humor, though! It's what we make it, just like anything in life...

Well...that is someting because I asked a serious question yesterday and I only got one answer.....I guess for some reason people think that getting points is such a reward rather than answering a question to help someone else....since points mean ALOT......I'll take 10!!!!  Thank You!!   :)))

forget about it,  points mean nothing.\n\nJust answer questions so you can help people.  God will reward you for your goodness.

Honestly?  I am here for both reasons.  I like the points and I enjoy answering some of these questions.  I don't ask very many cause I'm too busy answering.  I put a trivia question out yesterday and got a blistering answer from someone, really surprised me.

Exactly what mrscm said. When you see people answer with "I Dunno" or "No clue but thanks for the 2 points" then more than likely they are in it for points...points that don't really give you anything but bragging rights. If the points were gone, this site would probably shrink to half the size that it is user wise. I on the other hand, not only enjpy answering questions, but also love reading other peoples points of views on various different topics. Yes, I always hope that in some way my answer will be helpful or at least interesting.\n\nAlso, I wonder how many people actually go back to the questions they have answered to see if there was any follow up responses from the asker as to what they said. I've seen so many askers follow up with comments/questions about the answer someone gave, yet noone goes back to see unless they are chosen as a best answer. Then they will go just to see which answer was chose as theirs.
