Q: Why do I need to be signed in to vote?
A: This is to ensure fairness and the idea of one person = one vote.

Q: What is the User Score & how is it calculated?
A: The User Score is quick way to gage how well a particular user is at writing quality arguments. The User Score is calculated by dividing their total number of votes for all their arguments by their number of arguments. (ex: 6 total votes / 2 arguments = 3 user score)
This way a user that writes quality arguments will have a better User Score than a user who writes many low quality arguments.

Q: I`m not registered, why are my arguments not showing up on the front page?
A: To maintain quality of the front page we are requiring that a user be registered before their arguments show on the front page.
