Answer 1

Not to be contrary, but actually there is something to lose. Credibility.
When you ask a serious question, who are you most likely to look at for a serious answer? Would you take an answer from a responder who is level 7 but has only about 5% best answers, or a responder who is level 4 and has 50% best answers?
If you are trying to increase your credibility and your best answer rating, then you won't respond to questions unless you know the answer.
I read quite a few questions that I know the answer to but do not respond because someone else has already responded correctly. If I support their answer, I just give them a thumbs up and move on.
I am not some one who just answers to get 2 points. Anyone can do that. I try to establish a credibility so that when someone reads my answers, they understand that I know what I am talking about and take my answers more seriously.
