Why dont we get xp for helping others?

Question

I have gone through almost all of the courses. and the challenges are not as fun as I would like them to be. so I began to answer peoples questions. I realized that I know alot more than some other users so I figured that I would help them with their problems. why doesnt this help me advance in level?? I believe that if I respond to a question and get 2+ up votes on it I should get a couple xp. also how do the charts work with "coder", "learner" etc. I think that some of mine should be higher than zero.

Answer 1

Hang on! Your work will be credited by community, I'm sure. If you continue to help sooo diligently, you will be noticed. And helping is better than 'badging' ^^

Answer 2

Yeah, contribute to community isn't paying... I suppose logical of Sololearn dev' is to favor gaming side to maximize number of users, and that people who dislikes challenges aren't numerous ^^

Well, it's good to know we are not absolutly alone :P ... but don't focus on XP's and others baits ;)
