@siriasannino I'm sorry but you did not understand the true nature of this forum.

@simone thanks!

Sometimes the moderator/teacher dislikes profoundly an answer or a question and downvotes it.
This reduces the number of points collected.

Last year, apart from posts with swearing, pasted code or forum spam, I finished my patience and started downvoting also incorrectly categorized questions.

@simone please leave the downvotes as they are

Okey dokey !
