I can confirm this. Checked it on one of the answer.
And I see many people doing this [/or probably happening automatically as the above post says] (checked a few from 'Top Experts in 24hrs' list).

Given that it might be possible to exclude web crawlers and search bots completely from indexing articles but that we obviously don't want to. Is it possible, while letting them in not to count them towards article view counts.
While I find it difficult although not impossible to believe that 2000 real people might choose to read 'some stuff what I wrote' I don't find it believable that none of them hated it enough to say so. It would be nice to be proved wrong.
Clearly this can't be done retrospectively which might cause some comparability issues but I still think it would be an improvement.

Hi
Please provide some option where people who are down voting some of the questions can give the reason for that.. so that it will be easy to know that what is wrong in our question..if someone is not providing any reason please don't allow them to down vote..
Hope you will think over it..
Thank you

This has been discussed many times. Potentially one of three things could happen.
- People will stop downvoting bad questions because there will be a temptation for people to take up revenge voting.
- People will create sockpuppet accounts specifically downvote questions
- People will just enter meaningless rubbish like asa;sldifj as the reason

But at least the people who are serious about this forum and take things seriously they will give proper comments..else it's difficult for beginners to know how to put up the questions or where they went wrong..
|

The people who are serious will give you comments anyway. If I downvote you because I think your question is poor, I'll tell you. Depending on how well I understood the question, I may even offer pointers on how to improve it.

After checking out a few of your questions that were downvoted, most were questions that you either could have found out with a simple google search, or ones that were unclear and needed more information. In the case of the unclear ones, I agree that it would be nice for someone to indicate that, but in the case of questions that lend themselves to www.lmgtfy.com answers, I can understand why no comments are left.
I wasn't, now I am, then I won't be anymore.

And i recently faced it by this member itself.

Really? I've just taken a look at your messages and you have a decent vote profile in there. Where have you been downvoted?
|
|
|
|
|
|
So you think that TheUltimateDebugger has been downvoting your answers? Is that who you're accusing?
|
|
|
|
|
No. Down voting was done by Code-Hunt[^](Previously it was Snehashish Nandy) who has started this thread.

But how do you know it was code-hunt?

That's the problem i already mentioned that i don't know whether Admin at Code Project has some thing to verify this or not? See, i down voted his answer with reason. He didn't replied for a long time and when TheUltimateDebugger started taking his side,suddenly i faced this and points i loose by this shows that TheUltimateDebugger doesn't have that level according to Member Reputation System.
I don't have anything to verify this.

Many people ask very banal questions in QA. Instead of removing them totally, I'd suggest to create a section "Training questions for students" and move them there. No answer will be provided. The section could be sub-categorized into "beginners", "intermediate" and "expert" levels. Then all our students who wish to test and practise their current knowledge could get a lot of valuable training material.

Sounds like a great idea to me. But you still have the problem that someone has to decide which question belongs to which level...
