ANSWERS: 1

I think that it is very good if enough users rate the answers (or questions). Often, the answers are only rated by the asker, and some askers even don't rate the answers to their questions. I am grateful for users who take a part of their time for rating. However, the idea of rating is to help other users to find the most interesting answers at the top of the question view (sorted by ratings). So it makes sense to give better ratings to the most interesting answers. On the other hand, when the answers to a question have been (negatively) trolled, it makes sense to uprate all answers who seem to have been trolled. Also, if you realize that an user has been trolled, you could help them and uprate some of their downrated answers.
