Dec 15, 2016 at 14:18 comment added TheCleaner @Hanginoninquietdesperation agree - most of us that have been here for years are burnt out here. The questions aren't necessarily to blame, just that the days of active participation all day long on a second screen just aren't here anymore for a lot of us.

Dec 9, 2016 at 6:31 comment added Ward - Trying Codidact Mod You can see how bad the lack of voting has become if you look at the year-to-date stats. I got burned out and took a break months ago, and I'm still tops for the year. Then look at Iain at #2 - who's also burned out - and then of the top 20 voters this year, 15 of them are long-standing regulars. Anyone with a tiny bit of rep can vote and if anyone cared to try, at 40 votes/day it only takes 3 months to do as much as I did all year.
Dec 9, 2016 at 6:28 comment added Ward - Trying Codidact Mod Volume of questions isn't the cause of lack of voting. Even when there there were fewer questions per day, there were never more than a few (and maybe only one ) who read and voted on a significant number of questions. If you go back through meta.SF, there are many posts about the lack of voting, going back to the early days.
Dec 8, 2016 at 21:25 comment added Xiong Chiamiov I think it's less that there isn't much voting as much as that there are enough questions that a power user can't read through and vote on all or most of them, so many questions just don't get many views from the type of people who support a lot of the rep-gathering in early sites.
Dec 8, 2016 at 14:08 comment added yagmoth555 Mod +1, I would note atleast that everyone is in the same boat for rep's gain. Thus a SF user with 500 points there mean he participated, while on SO he's still a low-rep newbie.
