Reputation is earned from votes; the only people who can vote on a post are those who have visited its page, and people don't look at questions that don't interest them, or that they think will not be useful to them. And sometimes votes are given for quirkiness, or because of groupthink (a post "going viral") — see this search. | |

| Aug 7, 2015 at 21:27 | comment | added | fixer1234 | Short answer to your title & 1st sentence: no. Longer answer: SU isn't a refereed technical publication. It would be impossible to (timely) answer the quantity of questions received if it was. The model is not a bad proxy, though. It isn't a perfect or foolproof system, but it is pretty effective. Some high-rep users write a few excellent posts that receive high recognition. Others write tons of posts, many more of which get upvotes than downvotes. It's difficult to accumulate significant rep unless you are right most of the time, and it takes a significant investment of time. | |

| Aug 7, 2015 at 10:49 | comment | added | Ramhound | I don't see a single comment that @sammyg made that is "stupid". The minute I figure out how to avoid downvotes on well researched questions like this and this I will explain it to you. You have to realize that calling other members of the community morons and stupid is not constructive behavior. I pinged the person you are talking about out of respect, he has a right, he is being talked about. | |
