Hello everyone, I am new to this forum. I've been working on a drupal project with a team of developers some time and I have to regrettably say that the support answers in this forum have been... of questionable quality.
I propose a voting system for question and answer quality similar to stack overflow. I believe this would have helped greatly when trying to find answers to my drupal questions as I could sift through the half-answers and outright lies.

There's a healthy community
There's a healthy community at http://drupal.stackexchange.com
I like both formats (forums, Q&A), they can co-exist.
They should not coexist
I don't think they should coexist. I believe a question and answer forum with a voting system is superior to one without. The number of incorrect or outdated answers I have to sift through on this forum is appalling and the problem will never go away without voting.
I also agree with this
If there is a good voting system, it would be easier for a newbie to understand the correct answer. I suggest bring voting system, like stalkoverflow to drupal too. I see more quality answers in stalkoverflow than drupal these days.
