Everybody has questions but few are ever answered. I think there is a  reason why answers are more deserving than questions. Sometimes it  takes hours to ponder over a question, so an answer could be written.  Some questions are even more information oriented and you have to look  at the data from the internet to answer them and that takes considerable  time and effort. 

A question that took only ten seconds to type  may take hundreds of seconds to answer. If somebody invested time in  coming up with a good question the there is someone who will spend even  more time in coming up with a good answer.

I usually ask questions that I want the answers to. This means that my  primary motive to ask a question is to get an answer to it. Getting an  upvote for it is a side advantage here. This kind of attitude also helps me in keeping even my questions more streamlined.  

Prioritizing questions over answers could create a situation where people will just post a ton of questions and wait for others to answer. I am not saying that this is necessarily a bad thing but  this would allow the quality of questions to suffer as quantity would  become the objective (due to posting questions just for upvote). 

Asking questions when necessary is a good  thing that keeps musing.io alive but we don't want a situation where  questions are being asked solely for upvotes. I really do think that  this might not be good for the long term.

I also feel that those  asking the questions should also try to upvote the answers that they  feel deserve theory upvote. We need to keep in mind that musing upvote  is not the the only one that counts. Our upvotes also matter to other  people using musing.io
