(I am asking this seriously). What are 'points'?

oh there like things you earn in games so you can be to the next level

thought so... but how do you check your current points and how many left you need to gain a level

you press the arrow close to your profile pic

Leave him alone, Alexdoc. You were new once, and just figuring out the point system.

@Alexman467; If you wish to see how to earn points, go to where your avatar picture is at the top right corner of your screen. Click the downward arrow next to it and go down to where "Points & Levels". That will bring you to a page that shows you how many points you need to get to the next level and how to earn points.

Points currently are just the way to up your level. There is no big rhyme or reason to it yet, but it kinda is a bit more impressive to be a higher level. If you want to earn more, go to the Challenges link and play the games that are listed on that page and earn the achievements/medals there.

You can also change your profile picture and profile background. The first time you do it you are given points.

Hope that helps.

.... (Feels a little sad for what I did)

I don't really know where this is going.
