What do you do with a member who asks a question with a high point value, gets 6 to 10 good answers and then rejects all the answers there by not relinquishing any tech points

and think about why you are here.

I've also been on the end of similar transactions - and while its frustrating, I'm not here for points, I am here to learn, and in order to learn, I figure I should share what I know.

A simple thanks would be more than enough payment - or an acknowledgement that what I wrote was helpful.

I'm still trying to work out how to allocate and award the points. Nowhere can I see an option.

You sigh, role your eyes, and go on to the next question.

-Maybe it's his/her personality: so what? It's their problem.
-Maybe (s)he simply doesn't know how to accept?
-Maybe (s)he is not aware that one can accept and indicate which answer(s) worked.
-Maybe the answer(s) weren't relevant. What you consider good answers may not have been so. In most cases it's not your mistake: insufficient info was given in the question, or a poor explanation of the problem, whatever.

But at least take the time to reply. It is part of the whole process of asking a question...

of the game. yeah, it sux, so you honor it by saying it sux and get over it. a lot of people have said that they don't understand the interface, but really it's hard to tell what is going on so ya just gotta accept it. the point isn't really pointsanyway, it's keeping yourself sharp and having fun imho
