How many people always give points for questions asked but never get points for questions answered?

*checks* I have 989 unrated answers out of 7897 answers total. A lot of newcomers do not know that it is good Baguiquette to rate their answers. I often get comments with no ratings which is just fine by me. If I was offered a choice between a comment and a rating, either one only, please give me the comment. Others miss answers to their questions… I have done that. Or I could be answering something from a user who does not log in again. I almost always rate answers when I answer. The only times I do not is when AB is glitching and not letting me rate anything then I jot them down to notepad and rate them later. I also do not rate if I answer “flagged” to a troll or if a question is very rude, such as a racist question.

1) Do you mean that they never get points for their questions which have been answered? Most people get points to their questions when they are answered, either immediately or after they gave a feedback to the answerers. So people who never get points for questions answered must be very rare, except among the beginners. Only 21/758 of my active questions were not answered, 15 of the non-answered got also no points. But 72/758 of my active questions did not get any points. So I got points for most of my questions which were answered. 2) Or do you mean that they never get points for their answers (to other people’s questions)? Again, I could imagine that some users with very few questions, because many users give you points for answering their questions. Actually, in both cases there could be some of those users among the many beginners who just asked a few question and left Answerbag afterwards.
