Do you believe it is ethical to make up huge numbers of meaningless questions, for points?

My opinion on this matter is that the internet should be a place to gather knowledge, wisdom and personal growth opportunities. It should be used as a means to gain and better yourself, including having a little bit of fun and testing boundaries as well. Although I don’t believe that using meaningless questions to gain points is an ethical means or an ethical right, I do beleive that for some of those questions, they do serve a purpose of sorts. If the question is meaningless to the asker, the question may yet still be meaningful to the answerer or reader. So it is sort of like a catch-22. Although the intent for asking the question is purposeless, the answers given (sometimes even the questions themselves) still serve a higher purpose than the original intent of the question because the person reading or answering the question may just gain a deeper sense of his or herself.
