theyre not good for anything.
they could show your level of involvement in chess.com

Points are for those who need some form of exsaltation within the game, but they also can justify the type of level to better ones play of a greater calaber within formation and openning . i guess its all about loosing so that we can learn to win.

So for me its not about how great i am within the point system its about who can i find that will distroy my play so that i can rise up with a new knowlage that will bring my play to a higher standard...

points on the profile show only how active a member is on the site... you get points everytime you post a blog, forum post, add a photo album etc .you can't do anything with them, just shows others if you are an active member on here
