Question
As one of the Allexperts.com experts in Massage and Alternative Health, I have always seen the "Prestige Points" showing above my ratings. What value do they have? Are they redeemable for anything by experts?
Thanks
Prestige points exist primarily to guide questioners. Since volunteers get 30 prestige points every time they receive a knowledge rating over 7, that number is a quick way to gauge how much experience and success an expert has had helping people on our site.
Come to think of it, maybe it would be fun to make them redeemable for something. We have a limited budget, but what did you have in mind?
