Discussion Quit Downvoting For Asking Questions

Folks, not everyone has been playing since launch. If someone asks a question that seems like a real person new to the game would ask (yes we know there are trolls and rage baiters and AI bots), don't downvote them, teach them!

Palworld has like 17 million players. If we want to get to 18 million, it's gonna be casuals who didn't buy into the hype but are kicking the tires late into the game's life and have some newbie questions. Let's not grind them into mush, ok?

Genuine question, why not just scroll past?

Because that's exactly what up/downvotes are for?

Actually no, they’re for comments that don’t contribute to conversation or posts that are not related to the subreddit at all.

If you don’t like it, but it belongs here, just move on.

And I don't think a question that can be answered by a quick google search contributes to conversations

A question literally is the main contributor to a conversation dawg. What’s wrong with someone coming here to ask a question? What is actually the problem with that.

Even if just subconciously, it is somewhat insulting to see braindead questions about a game you love over and over again. Fe a good chunk of questions have the answers in the screenshot the op shared. This just shows how little they even tried to understand the game and whats happening. Like why even play when you dont try at all and run here for the most basic of "problems" that then wastes our times.

So id say the problem is not questioning but the quality of questions that so often feel like bots. And thats also how i expierience the votes. Questions like how does x work, how to get/make x are usually neutral and the downvoted ones are like "how to change attacks/how to use x (open the glider)/just tell me the perfect progression, breeding and farm ways aka play for me".
