Why are there so many people that ask about their points?

Why are there so many people that ask about their points?
 
Why are there so few people that read the rules and or the FAQ section BEFORE they contribute?

I don �t know.

I guess most of them are all excited because of all the wonderful things this site has to offer so that their brains kind of "switch off"! LOL
 
Moreover, it takes quite long to read all the rules and it �s sooo easy to enter the forum to open a thread in order to ask questions... ;))
 
Maybe new users with fewer than 30 points shouldn �t be allowed to write in the forum. ---> ONLY KIDDING!! <---

well I have a suggestion to make, and i �m sure it could be easily done by Victor!
when you post a new message on the forum, there �s this sentence

If you have any question related to this website (points, uploading errors, etc) please read first the Frequently Asked Questions.


I hardly notice it anymore - because I always try to look for answers before posting on the forum - but I guess many don �t notice it all. So I would suggestion writing it BOLD and BLUE, so that it strikes the eye!!! (or any other colour, I really don �t mind LOL)
and i bet we would have less questions like "what didn �t I get my points?"...

but I know Victor must be incredibly busy, so i would never dare tell him what he has to do!

have a great afternoon/morning/evening wherever you are!!!

Have you ever considered abandoning the point system altogether?
Rules concerning copying are necessary but I wish we could upload/download wss freely.
I �m afraid the race for points might shift the focus from quality to quantity and from content to design. 
But that �s just a gut feeling. I �m not around long enough to say for sure.
 
What do you think?

Yes, I suggested that about two weeks ago, it went unheard.
