> More like "you sound confident"
Meh, I'm usually there looking for how to do something, and if a response helps me do whatever I was looking to acomplish, or at least on the right track, it was helpful and worth an upvote. I've never upvoted just because someone sounded confident.... at least not on SO.
There's also the possibility that the answer was correct when written. Especially with web stuff a year old answer could be completely wrong now.
