From the FAQ's section
"Chess.com keeps track of all of your contributions to the site such as comments, blog posts, forum participation, articles, etc. Each contribution counts for points. This helps members know how involved each other are in Chess.com!"
Hope this clarifies,

i don't know
Thanks James!
No problem, the answers to most questions about the site can be found in the FAQ's, but as always if you don't ask you'll never know, asking questions is one of the the best ways to learn (alongside listening and studying). I see your rating is heading in the right direction, well done, keep it up 
I herd a rumor that 100 pts went for a free chess.com t-shirt, I really don't know.
Lol I can confirm that rumour is untrue!

i had the same question but now its anserewd thanks mm
I thought you got a shirt at a 1,000 points.
Like the ratings inspire players to do better, points inspire spammers to post more.
The points are like a microphone at a Britney Spears Concert.
Hello everyone,
Just a quick question: When my profile is viewed I notice that I have 39 points. What are these points for and what are they applicable to. Thank you in advance for any and all help.
Jim
