First off, some sort of way for the community to choose what questions and answers deserve more/larger upvotes. Sometimes people post great answers that a lot of people can relate to and understand, but the other answer that says basically the same thing or even less of it, but is two pages long gets the much larger upvote.

Speaking of larger upvotes going to longer answers, please fix that. Someone who tells a story about the time his daughter was reading a quantum physics book is not a better answer than someone explaining what quantum physics means when asked that, and it should not be rewarded like it is. Sometimes, it's not even a story, just someone jumping from topic to topic, or using poor grammar to make their answer longer.

Second thing, why make the front page top answers too? I feel like people expect a q&a website to have a front page of the trending topics of the day, not best answers. If they're interested in a topic, they can click the question to learn more, but why display trending answers?

Third of all, a better notifications tab that shows you the number of notifications you have, like the way Busy.org does.
