my answer got beaten by a dot?
Do you find this funny? Some guy asks a philosophical question, probably for homework. and I gave an honest answer. Then some other guy gave his answer as well and it was "." no sentience or meaning just a dot. And his answer got voted as the best answer by 1 vote to 0 votes.
The guy whom I gave the answer to didn't even have the decency to pick the best answer, and the one who voted for a dot... really? a dot is the best answer?
Do you guys find this situation funny? I mean, I don't care about the points, since it's pointless, but really the best answer is a dot?

It's a sock account. Was he a "Top Contributor" with like 35% best answer? People will create two, three or a dozen accounts, ask question, answer them and then select their's as best answer.

Opinions are subjective, hence the dot qualifies as a subjective best answer.

why you make such a big mess about it. if you dont vote for yourself, nobody else will. a dot can give better answers than you. ability to give answers and names are not correlated.
