points mean how many questions u have answered mainly..to get to a certain level......nothing really...i wish we could cash these d**n pts in lol.  but its mainly to ask and give answers to those who need help.  like a big forum

Answer 7

The points are just for fun. You get two points for answering, 1 point for voting on undecided questions and you get docked 5 points for asking a question. when you go up levels, it allows you to ask more questions per day, give more answers per day and you gain the ability to rate other people's contributions. Level 2 is at 250 points and level 3 is at 1000 points etc. There are 7 levels altogether.
