RE: Value

Good article about voting. There are many questions, what is good content, how should it be rewarded. To read through postings needs time, but I think many times big upvotes are given just because of the author, not because of the content of the posting.

Another point for me is self upvoting. There are different views on this point and there have been many discussion, but for me, self upvoting is not ok. It drains out stake of the reward pool and so the users, who do not self upvote, get less.

I use @commentrewarder to encourage users to reply because I think, replies are undervalued. You do not often see big upvotes on replies.

@topcomment is another initiative to get more attention for replies. I think, this is a good initiative and should be supported.

To write a good reply needs time to read the article and then to write your answer. But this is not that much rewarded as postings.

Have a nice weekend.
