What makes you give a thumbs up or thumbs down?

I choose down when the answerer can't spell or doesn't make sense or didn't actually answer the question. Sometimes i choose thumbs down if the question was dumb like who likes pie and the answerer says i do. or if the asker and answerer appear to be friends.

I choose thumbs up if it is the best answer or one of the best answers. It it makes sense and isn't like 2 pages long.

It all depends sometimes it depends what mood i am in.

I choose based on whether or not I think the answerer really solved the question. If the asker said in the comments that the problem was solved, I'll usually give it a thumbs up regardless of what I think of the answer.

I also take legibility into account. If an answer has good spellling and grammar, I'm much more likely to rate it a thumbs up.

I spend most of my time in the pets(dog) section.If the answer picked isnt mine,I still give a thumbs up if the one chosen,is correct when it comes to the dogs health and well being.If the answer is totally wrong,or has suggested something that may be harmfull to the dog it gets a big thumbs down,and usually a comment to boot.

I usually pick thumbs up because the way i looked at it they were chosen as the best answer so that USUALLY means they were helpful, unless it's something that will offend a race, country, gender, etc. It doesn't really matter to me if the spelling or punctuation is right because people all over the world use this site, it may not be their first languange.

It depends on whether the answer is actually correct or not...if it is then I give a thumbs up but if I know it to be the wrong answer then it gets a thumbs down.

I even give a thumbs up if someone elses answer is better than mine.......I'm all heart really!

I pick which was the best out of the best. Like say I agree I give an thumbs up if not thumbs down. Hope it helped!

My friend is thumbs up in the morning and thumbs down at evening. to give up or down depends on the foolishness had written.

I base my decision on the answer making sense! If it's a dumb answer, then you get the thumbs down, if it makes sense then up. Or even if it has nothing to do with the question but makes me LMAO, I'll give it a thumbs up.

If i agree with answer or not. if i totally disagree it's a thumbs down for sure. if i agree then it's of course a thumbs up.

thumbs up goes 2 d answer that makes sense..

there r some who just answer 4 d sake of 2 points & there r those who really give their sincere advice & admire those people... i wont just give them 2 thumbs up but 2 hands up..

I just give a little bit of advice or a funny answer and then just click submit though I admit, I also want the points
