Points - what are they?

Hi,

I was wondering - what does the points system do?

Why do some posts get 5 points and others 20 - what decides this?

Best regards,

  • Hi Lawrence,

    What I don't understand is that sometimes a question get 5 points, at other times more points. The same goes for replies - finding a system seems impossible, but I suppose some kind of algorithm is behind it all.

    I'm more curious as to what the points can be used for - or are they just a measure of the individual users activity, but again then 5 points for each question/reply would be sufficient to measure this?

     Also, it seems like I got 35 points for the question now, is that because it took a long time to get a reply (the one from you)?

    Best regards,

    Ole
