Nope, I'm afraid not.

The hint will make more sense if you look at the guidelines on cryptic clues on the first page. "Pointless" should not be taken in its literal sense.

By the way, Morsul, since this site is devoted to the works of one who was a master of his language (and many others besides), we prefer not to use "chatspeak" here, so it's best to avoid using it.
