We each have 25 votes per day. I do believe that qualifies as a quota. I've just been going over some of your answers and so far haven't actually seen a problem in the voting. e.g. This answer got a c …

I could almost go along with this rather pointless idea but only if the question is Community Wiki. Such a listing would attract an artificially high number of visitors and would therefore attract an …

Noticing yet another password question this morning, albeit an old one, made me think that perhaps it would be worthwhile having the system place an automatic protection lock on all questions that hav …

Are you seriously suggesting that good questions only come from those with greater than some arbitrary rep? What about answers? Do good answers also only come from those with X rep? I can only assume …

From time to time I see questions or answers in which the poster has used something other than regular font size. This can look absolutely appalling. e.g. Stop an already running cron job Can the CSS …

While on the surface this sounds like a good idea the reality is that we would need about a gazillion different templates, which becomes so cumbersome and difficult to work with that it would surprise …

"but cannot provide their proposed solution until the situation is clarified" pretty much covers it. Answers earn rep. Comments are not answers and therefore don't deserve rep (although sometimes I wi …

My take on this is that anyone who cares to be contacted has numerous ways to provide contact information for others to find. e.g. Email address or other details on their linked web site. Anyone not m …

I believe it would be nice for users to have the option of hiding closed questions and perhaps an automatically added "closed" tag would be the simplest solution. Another option I would like to see e …

Would you also downvote your own questions? Quite frankly I find the very idea absurd. I'm quite sure none of us are really in a position to judge fairly whether our own questions are crap or gold. L …

I don't think it's a stupid idea but perhaps one that has more against it than for it. I believe most users deliberately select tags they are interested in, which is quite separate from the ones used …

As others have already made clear, your edit added nothing of relevance to the original answer. It was merely expressing your opinions. The original got to the point without unnecessary verbiage, so t …

While on the surface this sounds like a great idea it's not as attractive after giving it some more thought. Due to the diversity of what we work with I just can't see tags being a good way to go. Wh …

From time to time things with a higher than normal level of importance and/or time sensitivity get posted here. e.g. The election and FAQ discussion. On a BBS such things would be made sticky to ensur …

One point that you need to consider when looking at old questions is that the site has evolved quite a lot. That means questions which were acceptable a couple of years ago wouldn't last an hour now. …
