Aug 13, 2011 at 2:21 | comment | added | womble Mod | You'd be less keen on awarding rep just for asking questions if you looked at the amount of drivel questions we already get... I weep at the idea of how much crap we'd have to wade through if people thought they could get rep just by asking questions. | |

Feb 17, 2011 at 22:52 | comment | added | Russell C | I suppose this makes sense, even though I would like to see at least a token 1 or 2 rep for just asking a question. I suppose this is also a different way of looking at the upvotes as I sort of see them as "the number of people who like/appreciate this question" and I sure as heck like my own questions! (As I'm sure most other people likewise do.) | |
