rleiman Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Nov 11, 2011 #1 Hi Everyone, Please can you check if this is happening to other Basic4Android developers who ask Basic4Android questions on stackoverflow. I currently lost over 10 reputation points most of the time when I ask Basic4Android questions on stackoverflow. I had to delete most of my Basic4Android posts to stop the down voting but I left one up so you can see what someone has been doing to my reputation points. Looking for layout xml files for the project - Stack Overflow It seems someone is feeling threatened maybe by the best software out there (Basic4Android) is going to take their Java job away from them. I will ask one more Basic4Android question on stackoverflow. If they down vote me, I will just play it safe and stick to this forum where it's save and I'm surrounded by great support. Truly, Emad

If I had my way agraham (and klaus) would be awarded "Superhero" status on here as they make so much difference to the forum. Click to expand... It does seem that SO have tried to create a system, where more reliable people's answers weigh more. Unfortunately that does not hold true in the real world, because anyone could come up with the best answer. The moderators there indeed are quite snobbish. I dont think we need SO, when we have Erel, agraham, klaus, kickaha, XverhelstX, warwound and so many more active contributors who are endless oceans of knowledge. Upvote 0
