The question may be a very normal one and its answer is also very normal, nevertheless I notice very, very abnormal upvotes for both the question and the answer! On the other hand, some questions and answers are real valuable and still don't get the right appreciation.
This is my notice and I'm not sure if someone agrees with me.
Well, I answered the following question:
then someone else gave the same answer after I did, and then he got four six upvotes and accepted and I didn't get even one.
Upvotes are strange, but then again this is much the same as on stackoverflow.com, so if you're used to the bizarrities of Stack Overflow this won't surprise you too much. The important thing is that it averages out over time, so e.g. a fairly obvious answer like this:
What is the correct way to pronounce 'router'?
can get you seventeen upvotes (and two downvotes as well for some reason).
