Just what we need here. More value placed on "board cred" because some of you really think that matters.

The circle jerks would dramatically increase.

The poliboard would skew numbers to extremes.

The whole idea is dumb really.

How did it go for you when you ranked the 3 teens that were killed in the car accident?



I admit, that was a dick move. I deserved every DV.

It would be a better indicator of where you post than anything.

Post on your own team board = more upvotes
Post in a variety of places = bigger mix
Post on other teams' boards = likely more downvotes

It would be interesting to see the numbers, or the ratio at least

do you want us to just click the downvote now so you get your answer?

I hate this system and never vote, but if we must have it, votes should be public.

I admit this is partly b/c I'd like to positively ID my 2-3 serial DVers. Although I already have my suspicions -- I have had not one but two posters start threads announcing they were DVing me. A rare (unique?) honor indeed.

Overall, I am pretty sure I would lead in downvotes. I don't think I have had the most downvoted thread, but I have many threads with a lot of downvotes. I actually take pride in being downvoted.

I have downvoted myself for opening stupid threads that I should have ignored.

I have an extremely complex system I use, based on, but not limited to, day of the week, breakfast consumed, subject matter, poster involved, color of the first car I see that day...

As I said, complex.

Amount of alcohol consumption must be factored into that equation for me. Simple, effective and rarely forgiven.
