please don't upvote this question anymore, it already has 10 votes, and we need other questions to reach that threshold too so that this proposal can move to the beta stage. – Christofian Feb 28 at 21:53

Do not upvote questions here with 10 or more votes. – JoshDM Feb 19 at 19:23

@JoshDm why? (filler text, ignore) – iamserious Feb 20 at 18:25

Because for Area51 Definition approval purposes, having questions with 10 votes allows the definition to move forward; votes above 10 are "wasted" and are better spent on questions with less than 10 votes. At this time with 12 votes, this question has 2 "wasted" votes that could be better used to bring a currently lesser question with 8 votes up to 10. It is better to have many questions with 10 votes than it is to have few questions with many votes. For more information, read the blue box with the word "Definition" on the top right of this page. – JoshDM Feb 20 at 18:30

@JoshDM, I see, thank you, voted few 9 votes questions to go into 10. – iamserious Feb 20 at 18:46

For those who do have votes on this and other questions above 10, you can click the bright up arrow to rescind your vote (don't drop it below 10) and apply it elsewhere in this proposal. This goes for any other Area51 you are voting for. – JoshDM Feb 20 at 19:23

This is not a question. – toscho Nov 24 '12 at 11:37

it is a sample question though. Meaning questions like this would be allowed and encouraged on this site. a "medical" section per se. – William Jan 21 at 17:10

@william - These types of poll questions are frowned on by SE Rules. – Chad Feb 7 at 17:44

	@Christofian - Actually, this is a form of gaming the system and simply opens the door for people to vote down good questions and bring them below 10. Please see this Stack Exchange answer for more details. If Stack Exchange wanted questions to be capped at 10, they would have implemented this feature instead of declining it. Hope this helps! – jmort253 Feb 3 at 18:59
	@jmort253 - The point is that there is no benefit to voting above 10. There is a limit to the number of upvotes of any given person so voting up a question already at 10 does not help the SE progress into commitment where we can hopefully get the site launched quickly. It is not a cap but a request to vote for other questions. – Chad Feb 20 at 16:52
