I was thinking there should be a point system for members that make those killer hard question. I have had a question that has never been hit, but i have seen it done. thread 208243
But this is not about my thread this is about what you think about a points system for questions.
I what do the other members think about getting points for questions and what would you call the points system if you are for it.

What do you mean by a points system? The whole idea is pretty vague.

The Idea is that you can get points for making good hard Questions.

Why? How is that different from the reputation points you get when someone randomly agrees or disagrees with you?

I would say because not everyone is a computer whiz but sometimes a normal person's question can really put your skills to the test. Increasing your skill level and in the long run improving your design and/or programming. There would be no reputation points if there was no question.

I still do not see what is wrong with giving somebody good reputation points for a good question. Why is a whole new system needed for that?

I was just saying, it would be nice to have a point system for answering Questions and another point system for making Questions.

People still can't figure out how to use the reputation points system. What makes you think another points system will suddenly become meaningful? Here's what will happen: confusion, abuse, and bitching (which already happens with the existing rep).
