    It's just a way to weed out the bots. Bots are not great at collecting points.

    @grant_call Bots are generic. Points are rewarded through genuine participation, and given by makers.
    As far as I know it's of no use.

    they're kinda like street cred. they show how active and helpful you are in the community. posting cool stuff, upvoting, commenting - it all racks up points. it's not just about bragging rights. high points can mean more visibility. plus, they're a quick way to see who's really engaged and who's new. what's your take on the points system? just for fun, or more meaningful?

    @shajedulkarim_ I heard before that points can affect the weight of upvotes, influencing product rankings. Not sure if it's true or not.
