Can we get the Voting icon names back?

Recommended Posts

The drama queen surely did win this one... 

 

I know you think that, but the way I see, instead of the same 3 or 4 people showing up in every other 'List' query doing drive-bys, now they actually have to contribute something to the discussion or butt out.  I never felt that the popularity of a statement was necessarily the best indicator of truth,reality, or merit, and that is what we seek here, right?   I applaud their decision to ditch it.

Love it that they're all GONE!

 

I bet you do, because it showed the (sad and pathetic) power of the silent minority when they are challenged. I'm not talking about you, rather the mindless idiots that use the down button because they cannot think of a coherent sentence with which to challenge you back !!!

 

Personally I loved it, because it gave me the opportunity to give you to 2 likes for the one dislike you gave me (and all that without having to explain myself because I was too busy).  :lol:  :lol:

I bet you do !  :drinks:

I am tired of the whole subject, and yes, because of skin surface sensibilities, it is now a joke. I will be removing it entirely and we'll stay way from any future rating system or such.

 

Surely it's worth a vote Tom? A simple poll .... YES or NO. Don't buy into peoples reasons why or why not, but let the majority decide. If the minority do not agree, they either accept it or move on. That is the way the democracy works is it not?  :Nail Biting:

Okay, we can do that. I will post a vote tomorrow with the various alternatives available.

Maybe we can come up with some more appropriate names, such as;

 

Gee, forgot to leave the ego at the door, did you?

 

or

 

I want no one to be happy, so chew on this down vote for a while!

 

or

 

My agenda is more important than your agenda, so quit posting!

 

or

 

I feel like a victim, somebody Like my post(s)

I liked the ratings system.. I got some bad ratings,  but I also could put myself in someone elses shoes and realize..  I know this is a crazy thought to have..  That..  I'm not always right.  :lol: Despite the many differences of opinion here we usually (usually) all manage to come full circle and at least agree to disgree most times.

 

 

t's obvious though some abused the system a bit. Maybe put a quota in place.. 6 months as a member, or 100 posts, whatever comes first before a user can vote on posts.

This is not the least bit funny... Something more serious and simple like, 'Like' or 'Disagree' are valid options. We already had the joke titles, people just need to quite wearing their feelings on their sleeves mad because people don't agree with them all the time (or ever in some cases).

And that's the way a community works. I was actually mulling over reversing another down-vote Dillon had received when the whole system disappeared!!

I don't see what all the fuss is about. Those who attach weight to click-votes can do so, and let those who attach no weight to them are free to decline to vote themselves and to disregard the votes of others and instead concentrate on actual content. Something for everyone...

 

I recommend the attitude of Christopher Plummer in Waterloo, "I do not intend to run around like a wet hen!"   :smile:  Whatever system we end up with after the vote, let's just stick to it, warts and all.

Unless a cash alternative is brought in for my 'stash', I don't care whether the votes stay or go-go.... :smile:
