Hi All,
As part of re-factoring the website software and features, we are going to move on to a new points system and subsequently the activity points are going to change or new activities being added. You can view the upcoming points system changes at the below location (or from FAQs):

Please discuss.

That person will also gets -1 points ;)like/unlike are the buttons used for voteup/down points. There is no criteria for that, it is ones own discretion to vote up or down. You are not bound to do it on every answer just like why you would rate articles.
I mean, suppose if someone had voted down for someone's answer just because he is not agree with him/her. Just because of that he have to lost -2 points.. But that's his/her opinion for that question. So isn't -2 points for that is like unfair. :huh:
This is how the better answering system can be built. Otherwise we can see thousands of answers like "google it for answer" :evil:
That's okay admin.. But I still think it can create problems.. :dry: Don't you think people can misuse it?
Yes, that is why negative points for the user who voted down the answer. And also we have all eyes open on the activity.
Btw... this is the only feature that will earn you continuous points even if you are not doing anything or even not logged in (some one is voting up and giving you points). All you need to do is write good answers.

HA ha.. That's the plus point for sure.IMHO, it is not like forum answers. An answer is an answer, if it contains enough juice, people definitely like it. Usually no one will you vote down unless you write really freaky answer.
About answering good Answer, that's not problem.. Problem is that people can have different opinions on one question. That can give lots of negative one too.

IT will be started from today after 12.oo AM.
But Sir,Character limit is just an eligibility. If you participate on forums not just for points. the limit doesn't matter to you. And do you know why only few people are praised/respected here for their presence irrespective of their points or whatever? Those who just concentrate on points will leave subsequently or turn to good writers later on. So it doesn't matter how many characters are there. After all forum will earn you enough knowledge to be social and be a good writer. That is the main intention of forum, not the points.
it is also possible to give points on the basis of character count.
even if I post lengthy posts and short posts, i get the same points. but, for lengthy posts, if more points are awarded it will be an encouraging factor for persons who posts long replies. otherwise, for getting 3 points, all will opt for small posts with 50+ characters
yet it would be a better idea to grand more points for lengthy posts.
there are a few persons here who write lengthy posts without caring points :)
I don't agree even the short response sometimes can better than a lengthy response. The thing is it should be informative and should be a quality content not like if it has been written just to earn points. :)
how many such responses Sanjeev? Only a few, right?
a post containing 2 or 3 sentences can be considered as an excellent reply comparing a short answer of just 100 characters.
for article posting here, where cash credits are given on the basis of no. of words, why can't it be applied to forum also?
otherwise just see, we are going to see only short answers in forum, with incomplete responses....... :silly:
Now they are considering the length of the post as now minimum characters should be 100 which may be OK but I feel if it is increased then the participation may get reduced as no one wants to write more. :laugh:

Yes Maverick, I found out this early morning itself. Since my reputation was above 6000, I thought that it is nothing but the points I scored. Points are not getting displayed in posts. Could you please let us know the reason?
