If you don't like a post, don't upvote it. Problem solved.

@B Traven All of these criticisms also apply to the upvote feature.

The + feature is not an upvote feature
It’s + feature
It may as well mean “i was here” or “i saw your post” the icon could be changed to a shroom and solve your issue.

This is semantic.

I think it should be like YouTube.  Counter for both ups and downs.

No, you've completely missed my point.

You want someone to hold your hand and tell you exactly who's right and who isn't. And give you an option to indicate that you think a post sucks without having to think about what to type.

The existence of the "+" feature is irrelevant. As mentioned, it's neither a "you're right" nor an upvote. It means different things to different people, and is likely ignored by many.

This isn't youtube or reddit. It doesn't work on the same principles, and disputes here don't operate the same way.

If you look at your list of active threads, you can go to the left and click "hide this thread." It will no longer turn up there. But it will also no longer turn up on the list of that forum.

You can still see it in the chronological list of all posts from all forums, and access it from your own post history, so it’s not gone forever. Just never in your face.

We dont need to be training eachother how to speak and which words to use

Firstly, please stop comparing to Youtube. Youtube has removed its thumbs down button so your comparison is obsolete.
I agree with you almost 100% but I have to agree with NotSheekle on that point.
If votes are published on the political forum it will in effectively portray the political dominance within the board which I don't think would be a good thing.

Well said. Especially considering what magenta said. I think there is definitely a hivemind mentality here and it can be extremely depressing, hurtful and humiliating if youre disagreed with by it.

I had a friend that used to post here, he would often talk about feeling like he was in a flame war for lack of better words. He said usually the other, more popular person, would say something hurtful and nasty first: and then when hed retort with an equal reflecting comment, hed immediately get torched by admins or something.

Basically someone would call him an asshole but as soon as he said it back hed get a little ban or something.

Made me feel sorry for him. Also makes me VERY apprehensive to post here. I think its a little dumb that unregistered users arent able to view info from the current decade. I had a friend ask me about info from "violet" and im like "oh those are very old and discredited, dont follow those, sorry"

No downvote button. I don't want this place to end up like reddit where everyone downvotes someone into oblivion.

My brother in Christ, this site entered that territory long long ago. I know it used to be quite the opposite, but those are ancient times now. For example, compare the political subforum here to r/politics. The similarities are..... depressing...

I agree that reddit's atmosphere is metaphorically humping a large fire ant hill naked. Small chance the ants crawl all over, and inside of, your pp and bite it in *just the right way* but odds are its going to be a fucking nightmare until you run away and wash yourself of it and then are bound to immobilization for days until there is healing...
...
...
But metaphorically speaking, again, an ant hill and its army is nothing without a queen. Reddit is what it is MOSTLY because of its hivemind. The hivemind is led by its power users, who have the highest notation of reddit vote points or whatever, and whatever the powerusers say.

If the [current, active]moderation and the "TC"s here weren't so homogenous in outspoken opinion, it would be less like reddit. But thats an entirely different large hill of fire ants on my dick-- I mean can of worms that my dick is in---- I mean we are here to talk about simply adding a downvote feature to cohabitate with the currently existing "upvote" system

Am I saying that our profiles should have a scoring system reflecting points? Fucking absolutely not,that would really make things fucking annoying really quick- oh fuck wait I forgot about profile "ratings" 😬😬😬😬😬 well.... im sure we can all guess how that can go wrong for some people but thats an entirely different topic of discussion.... Did I already mention that people here will mindlessly dogpile people with reactionary ridicule based upon praised senior users statements? Im pretty sure I did.

Also, I already downvoted everyone ITT's moms' asses upside down AYYYOOOOOOOOOOOO haha HAHAHA ha ha haha.....
....

I dont know much about computer code writing or programming, but I think I can safely say that implementing it in the system would be as simple as duplicating the upvote:points system but then making the button a minus or something like that. Both ups and downs being visible separately.
