Why Is It That When You Ask A Question On Yahoo! Answers You Get 5 Points Deducted? Im new to yahoo.com period and since I’ve recently established an account for myself, and asked a couple questions on ‘ANSWERS’ I noticed the it automatically made me lose points, so as a result, I didnt bother with asking anymore questions until I got at least 5 points above the ‘level 2 boundary’. Why would this be the case? Im I the only user on this site who finds this to be bogus and assinine!? I mean it just seem to make any sense to me whatsoever! Is there really a reasonable explanation for this?
any information from any Yahoo! staff would be even be appreciated. Thanks in advance to everyone who can give me any info
Also may I add, just so everyone is clear and there is no misunderstanding, I am not asking this to insult or provoke the Yahoo! community in anyway way shape or form, so I sure hope it doesn’t come across like that because that’s certainly not my intentions. 🙂
Actually, there is.
Yahoo! Answers, like any other community has a currency. The currency here is points.
When you /contribute/ to the site, by giving “Answers”, you gain currency (points). When you ask for something /from/ the site – by asking questions, you give currency.
It ensures that there is contribution from regular users of the site.
It also cuts down on spam – new users have only got so many points, so they can only ask a certain number of questions.
The people who answers questions on here are just regular Yahoo! users like you and me, and they give up their time and effort willingly to help one another (usually – there are exceptions).
I don’t believe that it’s too much to ask for others to do the same.
I also prefer a site with enough spam prevention in place that I can actually /see/ the questions and answers I need.
If you keep sharing what you know with the community, you’ll soon have enough points that you won’t need to worry about asking too many questions. 🙂
edit: You also get 3 points BACK when you choose a “Best Answer” for your question, so all you’re really “paying” is 2 points – exactly what you get for answering a question.
1 answer for 1 question isn’t so bad. 🙂
