@ChristainRau ... I think this is a philosophy difference between you and I. Everyone can vote as they please. I have no worries about it. To me there are actually three voting levels. First is an upvote for a good answer. The second is a downvote for a bad answer. The third is a null vote ... meaning you don't vote because it was good or bad. If you feel something needs work, then discuss how it could be.
@ChristainRau ... It seems to me you vote to the negative to denote something which just needs some work. If this is what you are doing, then I don't think you realize that it is demotivating. Why should I work on something to make it better when I've done what I can with it? If I've missed the gist of the question, then point out that I have.
@ChristianRau ... This is one of the reasons I haven't been posting answers as much on M&TV as much, because it seems people like to downvote for seemingly stupid reasons. I don't know if it's you or others, but it seems to happen a lot. People chose to downvote when the third voting option would do. This is a separate reason why I wanted to become a moderator, so that maybe, just maybe, I can influence others to make better voting decisions.
@ChristianRau ... This and the fact that people would rather see an ID question closed rather than help a newbie understand how to write a better question. People don't even give a new person a chance to come back and add information to their question before they chose to close an ID question. Just because you don't like a question type (IE: ID question), doesn't mean it's an unworthy question.
