Here are the two top answers that I've written. They both have 8 upvotes. You'll notice they are relatively simple answers.
Now here are two of my own Q&As that I spent quite a bit of time working on, and one has 1 upvote, and the other has 0.
And here's a really nice answer by @SeverusTux: http://askubuntu.com/a/809656/518562
**What is it about the two simple answers mentioned at the top that attract so many votes?** Not that I'm complaining :)
