If the negative voting is implemented again, perhaps count them for voting user aswell and it should not be anonymous.

I don't think the negative votes need to be visible at all, or perhaps only to the voter so they know they need not vote again. :-) Basically, if the voting is used for something constructive such as recommending threads and individual posts, we need a mechanism to correct other people's dumb voting. Currently we actually have the "priority" functionality for threads (which is pretty much totally useless). What I'm saying is the post rating system could evolve into a community driven thread-and-post priority/recommendation system. The current system is IMO a weaker basis for something like that than the old system.

As long as the voting is just a popularity contest side show, I'm fine with having only positive votes. It creates a more positive atmosphere if nothing else.

I think that it is ridiculous that anyone would stop posting in the forums just because of some silly voting system... I mean come on guys what does it change???? NOTHING If a post got removed because it wasn't rated high enough then people may put more thought into what the type in here!!

All I ask for is a system where you can easily find the correct answer to your question... or if there is more than one way to do it then show me... I dont want to have to sift through 500 posts to get only 3 valid points of view.

So maybe instead of rating a post we should focus more on the relevance of the post.. And for thos that care about being liked in the forums we could rate both.. tick one box if it is relevant to the topic and then another box to tick if you liked the post

Actually. Perhaps a combo would be good.

you can like a post or rate that post.

We could just do away with the averages, that might stop personal 1 ball stalkers?

Seriously, the old system was like ......
Some random people was like hanging out on the forums and gave 1 ball to everyone.
So I defently like the new system, but I agree, there should be a negativ button to, but theres come the problem, again, people will hang out on the forum and press the negative button to every post people make :/ (I'm not saying everyone does this) :D

I don't understand why there should the balls, positive or negative. It was a bad idea and I don't see any reason why someone has to "jugde" in negative your posts but also I can live without votes now. We can easily say if someone doesn't agree by written. The forum was so horrible before the balls?

I looked at it sceptically at first too, but I think that people have to learn to face these social things like popularity in the group and so on...

Now you vote if you think a post is good, if its not good, then they don't vote.
Then you can clearly see in a month or something, whos active at the forum ect.
