Do you give a flying fig about earning points?

What is going on with the people that give monosyllabic answers and then smugly say.....I just got 2 points......grrrrr

I know someone is going to do that very thing in response to this question. I am yawning now in anticipation.

Do you give a flying fig about earning points?
The points are useless because so many fun dummies are answering that you know they get the points but not the point! Right?

I ask questions and get the most stupid answers or answers that have nothing to do with the questions, like they can even read so they guessed what to say. Our education system at work in America.

Did you know the average IQ in this country is 100.

75 and under is the IQ of the mentally challenged; so is it any wonder you get such ignorant answers? (that's rhetorical)....sigh

Reply:I love earning points because I want to be able to answer MORE questions.
Reply:Only up to level 2 did I really care about earning points, because at level 2 the thumbs up thumbs down ratings become available for the answers to questions and there were alot of innaccurate answers about some of my favorite topics that needed to be addressed.



Now, I've just gotten into a point war with my girlfriend and we do it for fun. But I always give valid answers to valid questions.

Reply:Points...they are cool yes....it's a way to keep up with where I've been and where I'm going. It keeps me enthusiastic about the whole program of "answers". Mainly I enjoy helping others by answering their questions. The points are secondary. I at times feel addicted to anything I enjoy so here I am answering you when I should be sleeping...enough said from Mama Jazzy Geri Happy New year 2007!
Reply:Nope, I don't care about the points. I just want to answer questions in order to either help someone or let my opinion be heard. Having my answers chosen as best answers is nice though, because it tells me my answer was helpful, but I don't give a damn about the points.
Reply:lol....points mean nothing,they arent redeemable against anything.
Reply:Not a burnt banana dearie. And the worst answers are the interminably long ones, written by cosmic bores. Give me monosyllables any time!
