why are some person getting points in minus in Brainly
I am not able to understand this concept please clarify me

Answer 1

Hey There! Good Question! ☺

I'm a Moderator out here & would be happy to clear your doubt.

Let's study about the concept of Brainly minus points with a case study:

Let's assume that there was a spammer (who posts irrelevant content) named SPAMMY [imaginary name].

On joining Brainly, she wished to spoil our site.

She answered ten questions of 10 points & grabbed 100 points in her account balance. But, she did spamming there & not helpful answering.

With all these points, she asked many questions & made her points 0 again.

When she returns the next day, she'll surely see her points in minus. Most probably, her points would be -100 then.

This is because all her spam answers were deleted by moderators & the 100 points she got by spamming was withdrawn from her a/c.

Since she had already used those points for asking questions leaving her balance as 0 points, the 100 points will be like a loan.

This condition is termed as points debt. The points will be minus then as she didn't have the points to return back [just like banking]

That simply means she will have to give back the 100 points as soon as she have it & can't ask any question till then.

Mathematically;

If Points to be withdrawn as punishment > Points in account balance,

Points of account will be lesser than 0, ie, any negative integer.
