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, that's a good point. It kind of counts as a mini-rep, and you can't rep the same post twice, so if you like a post enough to actually leave a rep comment, don't give it the finger first.

We'll see how people like it. If it's just kind of clutter in rep comments, we can turn it back off.

FWIW I see these as not needing rep comments as they are stand alone approvals given when a full comment isn't desired by the initiator.

Yeah, it's more just that there's not really any good "record" of them aside from looking back through your own posts, and this gives some semblance of that. I do wish there was a better system, though.

Might I suggest working boobs into the solution? That always seems to work.

Hmm...we could change the default upvote rep comment to ( . ) ( . )



FWIW, the alternative page that's actually built into the addon is this, and it sucks.

That could work.
Zomygod that page sucks. Obviously an afterthought they threw together in two minutes.

So what are initial reactions to this (the rep thing)? I like it OK, but it definitely clutters up your rep. Any strong opinions?

It's replacing rep instead of supplementing it. That kinda sucks. Rep messages are fun. And nobody ever thumbs ups enough posts to get them highlighted or vice versa.

I like it just fine but wouldn't be upset if it didn't exist.
