Sep 17, 2013 at 12:58 comment added TheCleaner @Cypher I don't put a lot of stock on questions with small votes, but questions with even 10+ votes on this site nowadays is very likely to be a good question. Ward even made the argument a while back that voting is essential to this site's progress/upkeep.

Sep 17, 2013 at 0:38 comment added Cypher I wouldn't put a whole lot of stock on the voting being synonymous to 'good' questions. The voting aspect to this site is more of a social experiment than a true measure of quality. There's also the volume aspect to consider. With so many questions being posted, visibility of a question goes from seen to forgotten really quickly, which also affects votes, number of answers, etc.
