One of the first witnesses I voted for almost a year ago, and still concider them a good choice:-) As Bernie said recently, at least they are trying to do something useful.
I thought that they only support the newbies' posts, and frankly for me it was a great surprise to see several users with a high reputation, regularly upvoted by @curie
Yep! in a rather damning report, I think @curie fared pretty well!
The Rep 'rule' has been slackened recently, but I think the post would have to really stand out to earn a vote.
Thanks for the supportive comments :)
