New Feature: Up/Down Voting Posts
We have been playing around with up/down vote functionality for the past couple of weeks and just activated it in the Lounge prior to this thread.

1. Everyone can vote a post up or down. The vote totals themselves show up on the bottom right of the post. You can't vote on your own posts (the up/down vote is hidden), but you will see the totals once it's voted on.
2. If a post meets some criteria for being "good," the post will be given a yellow border (so that others are drawn to the "good posts" in a big thread).
3. Similarly, if a post meets some criteria for a "bad post," it will be shaded. If a post meets criteria for a "terrible post," it will be shown collapsed with a red bar. The red bar of a collapsed post shows the user's name, and you can click a button at the right to show the post.
4. This functionality doesn't mess with the order of posts.

I'm using "some criteria" only because we're sure it'll change. The border, shading, and collapsed posts are based on the difference between up and down votes, not a total number of one or the other. We'll be making adjustments based on usage, especially with collapsed posts.

We have questions about whether it'll work here vs a place like reddit. A few of us like the idea while others have brought up legitimate concerns. In the end, we decided to roll it out, at least temporarily.

This is a trial run.

We'll give it a week or two depending on how things go, then we'll put it to a vote as long as it's not an obviously terrible idea. The goal is make threads a little easier to scroll through -- easier to find the best contributions and easier to scroll past the trolling and derailments. We aren't out to completely hide posts and will adjust as needed to keep that percentage really low, or based on your feedback.

Yeah, so you down voted 214 posts (and up voted 2!) in a matter of a few hours last night, which is like 3 times more than the 2nd most active person's total and 5.5 times the 3rd most active.... so, I took it as an opportunity to test the 'ban from voting' option.

Hey, it works!

If people have a problem with posters, they can use ignore (although Daface's greasemonkey script for a better ignore seems to be no longer available, much to my chagrin), and we understand that as an individual decision. If this was just an extension of that to individual posts, that would be something that might be worth testing. That's not what's happening here, though, and this system should never have gotten the ok even for testing.


Should never have gotten the ok for testing? The people who decide that did, i think. Then they figured out how to implement it.

I think they did a good job btw.

That's what I said, yes. This should never have been green lighted.

Yeah...I'm not really sure why testing anything out would be a problem. At best, the system works and improves the place. At worst, it doesn't work and is gone in a month or so.
