text: i want to know why people are not giving out the ten points for best answers like they should!? i work hard on some of the answers that i give and i take time to find peoples answers for them. sure sometimes i just give an answer to try to be funny, but people should really choose a best answer when one is given. that is not to say that my answer is always best; i don't know everything. if someone knows something someone else doesn't and they work hard to provide an answer they should be rewarded for their effort. that is all i'm saying. what does everyone else think? like the answers we give, the points an asker grants you is a matter of personal choice. the same answer to the same question asked by 5 different people would probably get you at least 4 diferent point values.  if it makes you feel better, i hearby grant you 20 points for your question. however, those points aren't worth much... kinda like a solar-powered flashlight.
