Answers do not have more points. Why?

[j0a0vargas]

Every day when I get home from work, a web marketing firm in Rio de Janeiro, spent 2-3 hours trying to help other students of SEO, like me. I do not know why when I post an answer they do not have more points on my profile.

I always try to answer questions on issues that i dominate, or exemplifying experiences I ever had. When I am not aware, I never answer, try searching at most.

I really like to to know why my score has stopped.

Thank you Steve

Know I'm a contributor. hehehe

Who helps with information learned twice. Thank you.

[SteveOllington]

hehe. 49 moz points eh? It would be cruel for me not to give you a thumbs up right now, here you dude... congratz!!

[AlanBleiweiss]

Giving help to others is very rewarding not just through points (although I do enjoy watching mine), so enjoy the experience João !

[j0a0vargas]

Thank you Alan, it really is refreshing, I'm to a point of becoming a contributor, what emotions, hehehehehe. Thanks

[j0a0vargas]

Thanks for your patience, I'm new here on the forum, sorry my so basic question.

Ah...I didn't know there was a 20 point limit.  Makes sense.  Otherwise you could just keep posting nonsense answers and still gain points.

Click on "MozPoints" next to your point number and read explanation of how points work. You will see that you get 20 participation points and after that each answer gets zero but you can still get thumbs up from others and various other endorsements (by staff or question poster...etc).

[AlanBleiweiss]

Just to be sure, I went and gave a thumbs up to your question, then refreshed the page.  Your score went up a point.  Hang in there, keep participating and it should go up over time.

[Dan-Petrovic]

You get 20 per month.

| +1 MozPoint (up to 20 per month) | You automatically get a thumb up from yourself for any question, response, or reply you write in the PRO Q&A forum. You get 1 MozPoint for the first twenty of these contributions each calendar month. |

Thanks, I thought I had been punished for something i did not make, but if it's not just with me, I'm more relaxed.

Who punishes is google, not SEOmoz, hehehehe.

It looks like they fixed the bug that allowed you to vote for yourself.  However, whenever you post you automatically get a thumb's up, but no points get added to your total...not sure if this is a bug or if this is what they intended!
