AnswerHub Migrating to the Unreal Engine Forums

Work is also continuing on additional Q&A functionality, including nested answers.

The other thing I really miss is downvoting answers (and upvoting / downvoting questions). I understand that we’d like to keep everything constructive, but on AnswerHub (and StackOverflow) when there’s an answer with a score of -3, you know that you shouldn’t even read it because it’s wrong or irrelevant, and if there’s one with +22 you know it’s gonna work.

Same for questions. Like there’s this one: How to get a string property by name
If the poster spent as much time by checking out if there’s a String version as they did by writing the question, they would’ve figured it out themselves (and then there are much worse questions than this one on AnswerHub). I’d wholeheartedly -1 these “filler” questions (and basically the ones that have an instant answer as a first result in Google).
