It is used for morons to spam so that they can earn a silly badge.

^And there's the proof^

Have you tried the little link at the top of the page that says "about Greenlight"?

From a Developers perspective: It's a way to get your game onto the Steam Store with more feedback than the old system that could be silent for months.
From a Steam users perspective: an interesting way to find out about new (possibly interesting) games.
From Valves perspective: a way to gather data regarding what games will sell (assuming that people answer the damn question asked instead of making up their own because they don't understand the process) before putting them into the store.

PS: There is a question asked. It asks if you would buy the game. Please answer it the way it is asked.
This is not facebook or youtube. Those buttons aren't like/dislike or up/down-vote buttons. Those are indications if you would spend money on the game (or at least play it for F2P games) Treat them as such.

The badgehunter sickness is spreading fast, too. I see many more ill posts than good posts. I hope we won't be infected...

At least some of the mentally deficient manage ironic timing and placement.

eh, what? are you stringing words together or did you intend that to mean something? I think you might have to elaborate a b.. a lot if it is the latter.

Judging by the look of the games you have submitted and your posts here in the forum I do not think you really understand what greenlight is for.

But I really use Greenlight for this)
