I don't really see the issue. What does it matter if someone rates down a post? Seems like it only hurts feels...
P.S. Only posting here to see if I can get a huge rate down myself.
its a biased system that leans towards people who are butthurt (which is like 85% of the ppl here) and therefore it gives them power to rate down and ease the tension of the butthurt. We don't want to give them relief from the butthurt, which is what this Rate Down system is doing. We want that butthurt to stay strong and last long with no kind of relief available.
Right so there are 2 reasons for getting rid of the rating system.
1. People have feelings and like what they posted so if someone doesn't like it they feel bad.
2. For the *** that like pissing people off and don't want any way of allowing them so show their opinions without saying them.
You could look at it another way, to see just how much butthurt there is. I think would think of it almost as a success meter.
