I don't see why romper room needs to be under fire here. The users are simply using a function everyone has access to. No one would complain if it were actual ratings, but the upvote function should be an issue? No that doesn't make sense. Maybe try encouraging people to use the function rather than oppressing the people who do.

Much as I kind of agree with OP, if this happened the "best posts" list would just be people saying inane, single line shit in the pub. It's never been a way of finding interesting posts.

I agree with OP 100%, however implementing some specific code to a user created forum seems like an arbitrary way to deal with this problem. The easiest solution would be to return the old Romper Room back to it's former state. If the old Romper Room were returned and all of the moderators were set as moderators to the forum, all previous complications could be easily avoided.

You are worried about Rompers being oppressed.
Not even asking a question.

FUCK. Make it the way it was again. What the hell happened to SvS? I bet he still posts just not in OTD.

404, your post is the perfect rebuttal to XLCaps. He even gave me 5 white mushrooms to emphasize his point.

RRv2 is pushing all of the top-notch, super-informative pub posts back a page or two... What ever will we do?

romper room has quality posts as well as any board... But given the nature of things and certain threads created for the sole purpose of +1's the quality of the best posts page tends to suffer as a result. Andy was supposed to have fixed that and disallowed +1's from the user created forums from showing up there long ago but i'm not sure what happened. The romp isn't really all that under fire here, but this thread seems to be rustling jimmies.

Why is he such a keener on nullifying a useful aspect of site functionality? Is this somehow incidental or is it actually intentional? If OoD happened to post a picture it would likely get pushed to the nether regions of the Best Post list.. like page 3; it seems like a crime.

Don't be mad just because you don't participate in the +1 circle jerk. I've had a lot of fun in there, those are all good posts.
