Hi, Jim: I copied this from a post on Experts Exchange. Apparently there are two different kinds of points and here they are: *** Let's first discuss 'Questioning points' or 'Promotional points' *** You receive a number of points when signing up with EE. You receive 5 additional points per day, as long as you stay active. When asking questions, you need to assign each question a point value. Recommended point values are 50 points for simple questions, 100 points for moderate questions and 200 points for hard questions. If you ask a lot of questions, you will soon run out of these points, and you will need to buy additional points to be able to ask questions and receive answers. These points have real value because they can help you 'buy' good advice from a collection of knowledgeable experts. *** Then there are 'Expert Points' or 'Quality Points' *** Expert points can not be bought - they can only be earned by answering questions. Expert points can not be used as 'payment' for posting new questions. The sole purpose of these points is to see how much an Expert contributes to EE. Expert points are used to rank the Top 15 experts in each topic area and the overall Top 100 Experts in the 'Hall of Fame'. Actually, these points are kind of worthless - but it's real fun to have a lot of them and see your name climb in the Top Expert lists. Sometimes, Experts Exchange may even offer a little gift to Experts who have a lot of Expert points.
