In my opinion, people put way too much emphasis on downvotes here. However there does seem to be a lot of retaliatory downvoting toward those less popular, regardless of the quality of their posts. Perhaps a little accountability could help lessen this?
This would also be a better quantified tally of votes as well as equal numbers of upvotes and downvotes are cancelled out and never 'seen'.- Downvoted.
Call my secretary.palimpsest - Equal numbers of downvotes and upvote are cancelled out.
0 + 1 - 1 = 0palimpsest - Downvotes keep trolls in check. Not that it was a bastion of high-level conversation, but Youtube comments took a deep dive in 2015(?) when they removed..garbage
- ..downvotes. Negative feedback is necessary.garbage
- those numbers are overratedsted
- The real question is why are you downvoting grafican when everybody else is upvoting him?palimpsest
- garbage, I don't disagree and my suggestion wasn't meant to imply otherwise.SteveJobs
- palimpsest, wanted to demonstrate net effect of votes but didn't want to offend anyone by putting someone else's name as the downvoter ;)SteveJobs
- Just remove downvotes all together because half the time stuff is apparently downvoted for the sake of it as far as I can tell.kalkal
- Make voting great againfadein11
- The system is useless if it doesn't promote the posts in some way.
It was funny when some of my downvoted posts still ended up on the front pagegrafician - Your front page posts got downvoted, there's a difference.
The system works you just need to know how to work it.palimpsest - I don't intend to "work the system" in any way, just making observations
Some around here take QBN very seriously
It's just a forum, grow up :)grafician - Others don't care about downvotes.palimpsest
- Downvoted.

I’m not much of a tumbl fan, but I love the feature they have where you can see a dated visual archive of the uploaded content.
Be cool if Winn had something to that effect so instead of having to scroll through threads, you could see the whole thread in a kind of thumbnail style...
Maybe only work with visual stuff however...

What about the ability to edit a post once you've posted it in case you made a mistakd
- It's a dream many QBNers have since a long time.benfal
- I would like that feature too.benfal
- Take responsibility for your mistakes. It's more fun you and the others.ORAZAL
- we'd never have had foutyset
- yeah it is more fun and im all for not having a "delete" button so that peoples outbursts that they may then regret are kept for posterity.microkorg
- But just a little delete button OR a 'preview' before posting as you post would be great and get rid of all the 'oops' posts ...microkorg
