# No Voting already is the community moderation system in action! And down-votes are part of that as much as up votes; or would you also require up-votes getting reviewed? Unlike voting down on answers (which also causes the voter to lose a point) the Stack Exchange philosophy is that voting down questions [is a good thing<sup>TM</sup>](http://blog.stackoverflow.com/2011/06/optimizing-for-pearls-not-sand/) and therefor a down vote on a question does not cost the caster any points. (And getting your question answered is it's main reward, collecting up votes is not the goal there.) The voting system is also already regulated in a number of ways: - The voting [down](http://serverfault.com/help/privileges/vote-down) is a privilege that needs to be earned, it is not given freely, but requires a certain amount of community participation. - One user, one vote (per question and per answer). The community should easily be able to balance out a single discordant vote and commonly does so too.
