Could you provide some more information or maybe ideas for a better system? From what I've experienced as a casual user on SO (<200 rep in over a year), most of the times I (or anybody else) am downvoted is because: 1. My question was too subjective. I have edited my questions to narrow down the scope to avoid this after somebody commented the reason for downvoting and the question did get answered then. 2. I did not do enough research. This is a tough one because facing this makes me feel inadequate about myself. It basically happens when I fail to provide any indications that I tried solving. Such questions typically look like homework questions instead of people stuck somewhere. But yes, there have been some times when people downvoted me but did not provide an explanation but that has been very rare for me.
