This site, Horses, thumbs up / thumbs down, needs help!?

Thumbs down should just be stopped as they are one of the most abused features on here and really mean nothing. The original purpose of giving them has been lost and now they are just something trolls like to do. The thumbs down mean nothing point wise. ::: There is no rhyme or reason where the thumbs are concerned, some will give a thumbs up if there is already one BUT then there are the thumbs down trolls that give a thumbs down every answer just because they think it's funny.:::::You get points on a thumbs up if your answer is chosen as best ---- up to a total of 50. ---::::Thumbs down should just be ignored even though they are irritating at times..Simple minds require simple pleasures and giving thumbs down makes them happy, pathetic but true.
