I echo that feeling.
I thought, as stated above, that I could get points by just doing 'nothing'. But opening the site, clicking on, etc for 5 points wound up taking more time than I expected. And now, like Tenacious, I hit 1400 points and realize it is NOT worth the effort for the pittance you can redeem them for.

I am going for 1500 and cashing out.
