Out of curiosity, why is it ancient tradition to upvote for this?

The underlying reasons are set forth in the Sequences, as you'd expect. :)

No. Stop. The only reason necessary is because we want more of that behavior, right?

The behavior of posting comments to the effect that we have taken the survey?

Comment author: adamisom 05 November 2012 12:59:22AM 2 points [-]

Yes.

Haha... Obviously it's not the target behavior, but I, at least, assume that almost everyone who has commented to that effect has actually done it.

You're entirely correct. And if you read that post, you'll see why your reply is funny. :)
