Hey, Knownow, I gave you a thumbs up, to help counteract any 'thumbs down' :-)

Thanks for all your answers; we are all nice folks, judging by the reponse....XXXX

Some folks do so for just that reason, some thumbs down if they disagree with the answer, and of course some just to get your goat. ---personally I think these are all misuses of the thumbs down and negates it as a useful reference.
believe thumbs down should be for something that offends the responders (i.e cursing/foul language and/or personality attacks) --It shouldn't be used very often and should be considered as 1 step before reporting
that way reporting would be the rarity it's meant to be

If I ask a question I always give a thumbs up to everyone who takes the time to answer. If an answer is rude or mean I'll ignore it. I certainly don't give a thumbs up for any other reason. Maybe I'm not getting the picture but I can't see how giving thumbs up would make a question look better. That, to me is just plain silly. Either a question is good and/or interesting....or it's not. All the thumbs up in the world will not change that.

I know I don't. I give thumbs down to the answers that are not good advice. I give thumbs up to the answers that are good. And if there is a good answer that would be the same as my answer, I do not answer the question.

Some people give a thumbs down just because they dont like you or your answer, I think they should be used only when the answer is rude or obscene . I give thumbs up to all who take the time to answer my questions as long as they are not mean.

Hey I never thought of that idea, thanks for the tip!
Just kidding.
I rarely give a thumbs down. Only when I feel the answer did not apply to the question.
I'm just a thumbs up kind of gal.-)

I never give thumbs up or down now because the system is used for the wrong reasons, it could be a good scheme but people either misunderstand or misuse, so whats the point?

The only time I give a thumbs down is when the person has given a nasty, disrespectful, irresponsible answer to a question.
