I can understand that, but I have seen well crafted posts fall by the way side because they don't invoke the emotional response as some others may; leading to a quality post not garnering flags and stars, but the more diverse arguments gaining notoriety.
I think the system in place has room for improvement, but giving away free stuff isn't going to increase the quality. That is decided by the community for the most part.
