- noobermin 12y agoInteresting, so could one say being negative is easier, but expanding/adding to an idea is harder? I personally find that somewhat true. The issue is people look at upvotes but read comments. An upvote doesn't say as much as a comment does (quite literally).
- jimkri 12y agoI agree that adding to an idea or expanding on one is harder. The first thing I think of is a college class, when none of the students will explain an answer or add to discussion.
- sanderjd 12y agoSure, and negative comments that also expand on the original idea are just as good (or perhaps even better). That is, "I disagree, and here is more information necessary to inform that disagreement". I personally think you see a lot of those on this site, and that they shouldn't be lumped in with the general disdain people have for negativity.
