What is Xper?
GirlsAskGuys utilizes a point system to recognize every member of the site for the invaluable expertise they provide to our community. The point system is based on the actions a member takes, such as asking questions or posting answers. This point system also encourages a greater level of participation with more value given to better answers. While a member can not lose points for any action, he or she may lose potential points when his or her questions, answers, comments, articles, profile information or the likes are removed during moderation. By moderating user actions, GirlsAskGuys not only provides better quality content, but also ensures that more points are given to those who deserve them. For more information, please see our Xper Point System page.

Please note that GirlsAskGuys is not a substitute for professional advice or counseling. We reserve the right to delete or reject questions on a case-by-case basis if we consider them abusive.
