Do you really think a desiscion involving a quite big change to the template of SRF, gets voted in so quickly? They take your suggestion if they like it, Throw it in some secret gaybar (ran by Cin) forum, and keep it in mind.

Furthermore, i still hate the idea. We're not youtube.

Yes, but I've seen how most of these go about.
Mod: We will talk about it [Lock]...
Never heard about again.
And I still think +1 is for spammers, still doesn't contribute in my mind.
Edit:
Never got what a higher post count does for anyone...

[Priam]

As i said, you can't go around assuming that people only use it for a higher postcount.

And well, "we'll think about it" is a start.

I think it should go like this-

The following users +1 this post:
priam, mrbow

the following users -1 this post:
cin, tasdik

and it should be placed in the space under the sig
maybe? y\n?

Why even list the actual members that agree or disagree?

Maybe SRF could do something similar to the moderation system on Slashdot.org. They have a system where you can either post in a thread, or 'moderate' it. If you 'moderate' the thread, you can't post in it. You can just +1 or -1 a person's post to add or subtract points, up to a certain amount, and add labels to it like 'insightful', 'flamebait', 'troll', 'funny', etc.

When other users browse that thread, they can see these ratings on each post and even have a 'threshold' setting so they don't even see posts below, say, 3 points. So a post might look like:

============
Post Subject: my interesting post Score: 5, Insightful Posted: 11/17/08

This is my Insightful post. People think I am Insightful!

============

A system like that would take a bit of time to develop and get working properly I think. It seems to work pretty well at Slashdot anyway. I think people that can "score" people's posts should not be able to post in that thread, otherwise they'd be bumping people's scores to push an agenda (for example get someone to say something, and bump their score, or knock someone's post down that disagrees with what the 'scorer' said.

[Priam]

Just give me Moderator's priviliges, and i'll 'score' some posts. No need for difficult coding.

[Snoopy]

I +1 on occassion, though i'll usually add a piece of my own mind, since i has very stron onions.

+1

ohh, lookie. I'm using +1

[TOloseGT]
