re: Upvote/Downvote function

OK, I briefly looked at both of the threads in your last post. Seeing the massive amount of downvotes in each thread, what purpose do they serve? Did the post get whacked or anything? Or does the enormous downvote just supposed to discourage the next reader from forming their own opinion?
I guess my complaint lies in the fact that TD has a wide membership outside of LSU fans and the downvotes about recruits can too easily be abused by fans from schools that would prefer to see LSU have a bad reputation for talking about players. One would hope that players don't give any credit to troll posts on a fan message board, but we also know that from time to time, the media has quoted stuff from TD. It just seems like the Downvote function should be eliminated or regulated better when talking about players or coaches.
There endeth my rant.

To the point ... it doesn't appear to be worth anything.
