Certainly not, if we're only getting -16 points! Now if they raise that to -80, maybe I'll play!

You do realise that giving a toss about such things wastes minutes, hours, and days of your life, don't you?

What I actually look at isn't the point totals.
It's more closely relate to whether anyone cares (or decries) what was posted. Replies serve that purpose to an extent, but some upvote instead of posting something like 'good one!'.
This is most important if I post a joke. Helps in determining if it should enjoy further sharing or an ignoble death.
The whole system is skewed if negative remarks are done simply for the sake of doing them rather than any opinion.
It's knowing it's more of a conversation than a monologue.

No it's the voter in question that's skewed.

Anyone know of any tutorials or other training for learning TFS online?
Thanks
If it's not broken, fix it until it is

You could try MS channel 9 and YouTube.

I recommend you also use the TFS Power Tools plugin for VS (if you're not already). It makes for a great TFS experience.

This week, as a field trip, My daughter ( 2nd grade) is visited Museum. The topic of enquiry was evolution. They are going to see how/why animals could have evolved from primitive ocean life.
If I remember correctly. when in school this topic came very very late. Not in 2nd grade.
Anyway one of the homework was to list one animal that did not change for past 4 million years and other was to list one animal which doesnt not exist now.
I told my daughter that Dinosaur are extinct. But she doesnt accept it. she argued with me and still says they are in this world but hiding.  I am not sure how to convince her. To make matter worse, she saw the trailer for Jurassic world yesterday. Ughhh
cheers,
Super

Maybe this[^] is a better example.
Made extinct by humans, to my knowledge this is the last footage of this animal. The Tasmanian tiger/wolf.
I saw video's claiming it to still exist, but don't know if they are true or not...

She is right. There are still living descendants[^] of the dinosaurs, evolution just disguised them so that they don't look very much as we would expect them to look.

extinct ? EXTINCT ? Why am I ALWAYS the last one to be informed here ?

They already have become unexstinct, so you are up to date again:
(From Wikipedia)
Most researchers agree that modern-day birds are the only living members of the Dinosauria clade.

Difficult: they all have. Even cockroaches (which were around with the dinosaurs and a long way before) are "modern" cockroaches, which do not have the same DNA as the older ones that look much the same.
But "the cockroach" is a good example of an insect that doesn't look any different.
super wrote: list one animal which doesn't not exist now.
Regrettably, that's really, really easy: the list is enormous, and getting longer every day... 
But...famous ones? The Dodo? Mammoth? St Stevens Island Wren?
(I like the last one, apparently the only known example of an entire species possibly wiped out by a single animal, named "Tibbles")
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Perhaps your daughter was referring to her school visit to parliament the previous week?

She is correct, I still get projects that "need" to be done in VB 6.
It was broke, so I fixed it.

Either the trilobite, or the branch of humanity known as "honorable man".

Let's not go to the realm of myth and folklore. What will come next? Dragons, ghosts and goblins?
