Is there some sort of tally kept for each poster? Can you tell which posters are respected, or which posters are not based on the votes? Could one of the esteemed administrators let us know why this information is being collected, and how it is being used? Thanks.

Only someone with the brain of a poodle would ask this.

It's just an upvote/downvote. Nothing more. Get used to it.

Downvoted.

It is an application developed and added to this website. The application was developed with some analytical purpose in mind, as well as to generate money for someone. Otherwise why would website owners add bloat to their site resulting in wasted bandwith and storage of useless information?

More importantly, why would anyone take the time to read and respond to Help Board topics, much less vote on them if it is pointless? I've never bothered to vote on a message on any board. If I feel strongly enough to comment I'll make my feelings known.

Obviously people other than you have a different opinion, including the people that operate the site.
