"Trivial" questions have a very high probability of being closed as duplicates, or being answered and accepted in a very short time. If someone can answer a question very easily (not because of their skills but because they're just fast enough), then there should be slightly less reward. That will remove some of the "gravitation" from these questions, over to other ones who deserve more attention... | |

Sep 6, 2011 at 21:32 | comment | added | shabunc | @Lukas, it's looks like it is nevertheless about trivial and non-trivial questions :) because, once again, it is very difficult to separate one from other. Say, If we'd talked not about difficult/trivial question but about megapopular/"mundane" questions, I would fully agree with you. Megapopular questions are like black wholes with it's gravitation wave. | |
Sep 6, 2011 at 21:29 | comment | added | Lukas Eder | My point here is not about "trivial" questions, which are perfectly ok. But one should not be able to get +100 upvote points on something that almost anyone can answer, whereas a tough answer on a tough topic only gets you +25 points | |
