How can I find out how many Points I have on MakeUseOf?

Ray asks:

I am hoping to enter the drawing for that nice camera, but for the life of me I can’t figure out how many points I have. I have been on MakeUseOf for quite a while (a year or so), asked many questions, answered many questions and even won a $50 best answer for one of them.

Could it be that the changes in the login have disassociated my history. If not, how do I find out how many points I have.

Ray,

You can only gain points when you are logged into MakeUseOf. There is no previous history of your activities relevant to gaining points. Unfortunately, this wasn’t technically possible. So everyone starts fresh.

You can log in or create an account with us using one of your existing online accounts, e.g. Yahoo, Gmail, Twitter, or OpenID. The login is located in the top of the right-hand sidebar.

You must log in with an account from facebook or hotmail etc and if you go and check on your profile (full) it will tell you

Upper right corner has your user name and the amount of points you currently have, as long as you are logged in.

As everyone has mentioned, you need to be logged in to view how many points you have.

You can log in by going to the upper right corner on all MakeUseOf pages and find the Facebook, Google+, etc. icons. Click on the icon and log in by entering your information for whatever social network you’re using.
