To get more trustpoints, you need to answer each and every answer honestly. Lying or making things up just to answer a question won't get you even a single trustpoint. If you answer all your questions honestly, you are bound to have more trustpoints in no time.
Trustpoints show how trustworthy you are-the more you have, the more you are trusted. When you answer questions, and people like your answer, they can recommend you, and that means you get one more trust point. So, all you can really do is answer questions the best that you can, and hope people remember to recommend you!

Yes, friendly people can write on your message board and give you trust points, as long as they have the necessary permissions to do so. Typically, the ability to post and give trust points is determined by the platform's settings or rules. It's a way to encourage positive interactions and build a supportive community. Always ensure that your message board has guidelines to maintain a respectful environment.
Because the rule has always been - one user, one vote. It's a safe-guard to stop (mainly schoolkids) making multiple recommendations for their friends 'just for the sake of it'. If you could recommend the same user more than once - people could (theoretically) be awarded many thousands of trust-points - even though they may have made no sensible contributions at all ! A simple example... A schoolkid (let's call him John Smith) came across your question before I did. He posts the (obviously crass) answer 'Because you fart too much'. Now - he might be in a school of over 1000 pupils. Once word spreads through the school of his 'apparently funny' answer - all 1000 pupils could (theoretically) award him 1000 trustpoints each in the space of a few minutes ! A total of 1,000,000 trust points for a completely useless answer ! AND - you can't retract trust-points once they're awarded , so John Smith goes right to the top of the leader-board for no good reason !
