| Sep 20, 2011 at 4:25 | comment | added | Wesley | @U4iK_HaZe My understanding is that OSQA is one of many FOSS remakes of the Stack Exchange software. It's not necessarily a cheap knockoff; just a FOSS alternative to using the proprietary StackExchange network. | |
| Sep 20, 2011 at 3:34 | comment | added | U4iK_HaZe | @wesley That is very true. Now my question is this: what came first, stackX or OSQA? Is that a cheap knockoff of this or is this based off of that? They are strikingly similar. | |
| Sep 20, 2011 at 2:34 | comment | added | Wesley | @MarkHenderson It took me a few months to figure out the Q/A nature of the site here. It's unlike anything else on the web, especially in the IT realm. | |

| Sep 15, 2011 at 17:16 | comment | added | Rob Moir | I'm not sure offhand if I've ever downvoted any of your questions and answers on the main site. I have to say that whenever I've read your questions there does appear to be a wildly inconsistent nature to the quality of your answers. I can see why others have downvoted you on some answers even though I don't feel the need to "pile on" and add to the downvotes myself. Perhaps some of your questions are getting downvoted because they're getting the votes they deserve. | |

| Sep 15, 2011 at 13:37 | comment | added | Chris S | In addition to what Chopper said, it doesn't take all that many votes (up or down) to trip the automated bots. | |

| Sep 15, 2011 at 12:07 | comment | added | John Gardeniers | Yes, it happens. If someone attracts enough attention due to poor posts people are likely to see what else they've posted. Does this surprise you? | |

| Sep 15, 2011 at 10:57 | comment | added | Chopper3 Mod | We have automated tools that spot this kind of behaviour, if you know of this occuring let us know and we can, and frequently do, act on it very seriously. We had a bunch of work collegues voting each others posts up, an email fixed the problem and they now add a lot to the site. | |
| Sep 15, 2011 at 10:41 | comment | added | U4iK_HaZe | Okay. I was just thinking that some people purposefully go through other peoples questions and answers and rate all if them with downvote. Because this does happen. | |
