Question

I'm new in yahoo can you please tell me what the points are for?

Answer 1

This is to encourage participation and reward great answers.

You try clicking on your point to get more info.

Answer 2

Welcome: Just go to help on the top of your screen and it will lead you to the place you need to know about points.

Answer 3

Welcome!!!

I'm not real sure.

I've been trying to turn my points into 'Yahoo Bucks' so I could maybe purchase a windbreaker or something but apparently no such thing exist!

I'm kidding! There is an explanation somewhere in the rules or somewhere.

Answer 4

you can use them to ask questions and show ur 'status' compared to other yahooers...

Answer 5

Nothing. Just accumulate to be able to ask questions but after that nothing but bragging rights
