Rating Scheme For Answers

lol, making the answer longer isn’t really going to make it any more or less helpful. actually, the really long ones I hardly bother to read them because 95% of it is usually just sugar-coated mumbo jumbo. but whatever floats your boat mannn. if you want this change on funadvice then I think you should send this to thedude, I’m sure you know that he’s always asking us to suggest ways to improve the site.

I didn’t say anything about re-editing answers. I said “so that the user knows if they need to improve their answers”… not go back and change it. Just improve their answers overall like; length, ideas, grammar, punctuation, etc.

honestly, nooo. because I think an answer is either beneficial to the question, or it wasn’t. I rate answers all the time, just by asking myself, “do I think that was helpful?’ if it wasn’t then it gets a no, if it is helpful in the slightest, then I rate yes. I don’t think people would even bother to even actually go back and improve their answer if it was rated “O.K,” because it’s to much work. we usually do the best we personally can the first time around, and really it’s all about OUR personal view on their problem. if we wanted just PERFECT positive re-edited answers from everyone then we might as well just get a robot to do it.
