hmm.. take it as ermm a poll.. if they like your post or your comment, they will give u positive points.. if they dont like your post.. they'll give you negative points. But ultimately it doesnt mean that if you get neg points or if someone has neg points they are dumb or somefin. it has little to do than inteligance, more to do with attitude. anyway, the points are just a public view of you. its like a feedback..
