The gamification seems really unnecessary for a social network. It may improve retention rates, but only for a very small demographic (that I'm definitely not a part of).
The consensus in the comments seems to be that there are some other bad decisions that went into it too...

In the new version of Tagschat.com (same concept, web-based) you won't have gamification, but only endorsements by whom recognize your knowledge in the field of your interest.
