without any forum posting or writing article ,one is getting points and holding the position in leader board.
This is not right.Admin. should do something.
In the last week (I don,t want to take any name-As you all know)Many of my friends worked hard but failed to hold the highest position.This happened to me also many times.It is making me less interested.
So guys do some thing to avoid this spammer.

Even i don't think there is anything wrong in viewing articles had it been against the rules there would not have been such a system. :)
I ahve seen it in almost every week someone does that i do not think there is anything bad in it as it :) definitely brings something positive to the site and may be thats the reason admin don't consider it against the rules. :) Its matter of courtesy though one should not just view the article for just getting points as the author had done lot of hard work for it which someone may not find it worth to read it. :evil:
Everyone has own way and speed of reading. I read newspapers and even novels in very short time. One may just read headings, subheadings, beginning and ending and just glance through here and there. If you read this way, you will read sooner. You will take very long time if you read every word aloud.
However, if it is considered that some members just click and get points, which is undesirable, it is necessary to change rules. One way is to fix maximum points for article reading in a day. Fifty points a day for reading articles may be okay.

No doubt there can be several ways to stop it but that depends on admin i have been here on this site since last 3~4 months and have seen lots of users doing this and apparently many of us complained this to admin but next week too we see new user doing the same thing.This gives me a feeling that admin too don't want to stop it and don't think it to be wrong. :evil:
Hope adim one day will take this seriously and that day would be a penultimate for many of the users. :)

You cannot accuse anyone if he gets points by rule and does not write any spam post or comment. If it is desired that points by reading only be restricted, this can be done by changing rule. Until rule is changed, it is futile to accuse anyone in this regard.

Even i also favour it as there is no where written that one has to comment on the articles which he/she reads its wish of a person if he/she does it or not. :)
Everything is done for gaining points it depends on persoon to person some beleive to earn by just clicking on the articles or some may not but both are OK as per admin. :)

Yes that is exactly the point, the sites work on views which is their main source of income, they can not block any one for doing good for the site. This is your choice how you make your points. But in the long run there wont be many options for people who are only doing this as means of points.

Of course they may not be successful in long run. :)

Yes I too am looking for long term gains by posting here. I am more interested in 2.5k points which are waiting for me. :evil: :laugh:

Articles are meant for reading and not for mere viewing! In the past the administration did take actions against some for misusing this!
It is really surprising that even though admin caught people misusing it but did not make a fool proof system so that people may not misuse it just for getting points. :evil: This i would say is mandatory to improve system when someone is caught misusing it. :)
but for how long one will be able to do so as one day the articles will be finished and even their our other ways also of earning points except article reading,forum and writing articles.even by poll section,by product review by quiz also one can gain points so until and unless we dont know exactly how the person has gained point we should not say anything.i saw the member who is top in the leader board and i saw in award section that he has been awarded for top voter many times this week so he may have scored by voting also.
And if gaining points from reading article is wrong than admin should make a rule like for opening an article and for staying on that page for maximum of 2-3 mins then only one will get 1 point as like the rules for click per ads.

So doubt is clear and clicking on article is not wrong to get points.Isn't it?
even i do click on articles and whatever i find useful and important for me i put it in the list of my favourites by clicking the hit button above on them.i also dont comment on articles but i click on hit buttons.most of the times when i saw any recipe i suddenly click on the article to read it.so there is nothing wrong i think.and if it has been misused then admin can make a rule even i suggested one above.
If that be the rule ,the administration must do some serious thinking on the apparent absence of logic in the existence of such a rule and discard it. After a rule is intended to ensure a healthy,level-playing field and if it doesn't meet its purpose, it needs to be suitably modified or discarded keeping in mind the sentiments of the majority of members!

Huh "matter of sentiment". :S
It looks just a matter of sentiments as there is no intervention of admin there and i think there is nothing wrong in just clicking and viewing articles :laugh: .It hardly matters who tops and who does not at the last there should be an enjoyment and a sportsmanship which i experience it. :)
