I think the point of the person who told me when there is a range of appreciation to be expressed between 1-50, and someone leaves you a 1, it means they don't care like what your wrote... of course you are right that new people to the site are might not know that up to 50 claps can be given, but one only needs to read a few articles to see that different people give claps within that range. Anyway, no need to generalise! I was just sharing my learning on the site in the context of your article on trolling.
