What is with the new rating system?

Useful, informative, amusing, and agree? Really?

If something is useful it is also informative and if something is informative it is useful... If something is informative or useful I would probably agree with it. So what is with those three similar selections?

And amusing? I though this was a place where we answer question, not humor people...

    That is the new system which they are only testing. Personally I do not like it as a totally incorrect answer cannot be TD'd. It also seems more like chat to me. The one option now is to report abuse if the answer justifies it.

    Your answers to random questions are condescending. Best of luck with your rating system.

    I personally believe that it is absolutely absurd. I also agree with everything you stated.

    Furthermore, we can't even give people a thumbs down anymore, aha.

    SUCKS!
