"My Points"
Sort:
Member points, and I believe those are what you are referring too, are given every time you post or send someone a note. They indicate the level at which a given member participates. They don't really do anything else, except that if you get 1000 member points, you get a free T-Shirt.

Where does this info come from? I hear members talking about it but haven't seen any official Chess.com comments on it...
| dont think u quite get the point! |
I gotta back you up with that wanye79
Member points aren't just about getting the teeshirt! Lol. The teeshirt is like, just a side effect, a perk. I get frustrated by people who post single sentence blogs or really innane half-comments everywhere for that end alone.
Member points are acutally to demonstrate a members involvement in the overall community - and I'm glad they're there. They're also to help balance the possibility of rating obesession that can come from chess - they remind us that we can earn "points" not just due to how many other people we defeat, but through positive contribution as well.
The teeshirt reward is a way the team can thank those contributors who really help to improve the overall quality of the site by making thought-out, quality posts and blogs and encouraging comments.
They're not a reward for learning how to spam. Heh.

Member points are essentially a post count.
The points are a positive reflection of your participation on the site.

I agree with Shruikon, and I think that's really the "point".
