As discussed here, we've today started trialling a new post rate system.

Previously members could 'Like' a post. Now, they can 'Like' or 'Dislike' ('KOF') a post. Those who have been posting for a while will remember it being similar to the rep system, but without the ability to comment.

The developers reckon it;

  • Increases daily posts.
  • Improves signal to noise ratio; less short/unnecessary posts
  • Improves quality of posts (posters want to avoid negative ratings)
  • Makes lurkers useful for something and gives them a means of interaction
And, it can help self moderate - there's a setting that allows 'x' amount of dislikes to place a post in a moderation queue.

We'll be tweaking the system over the next week or two to see if it can work. Be mindful that if we notice people taking the piss with it (targeting members etc) then we'll revoke access and it'll be a mark in the against category for the feature...

Why not 'chat wham, state why you disagree rather than take a cheap way out'?

Sadly currently Bruce the neg system only allows you to voice displeasure at certain posts, it doesnt allow us to state our "issue" with the aforementioned post.

I would be willing to state the "issue" I had with every "neg" ive used thus far.

Believe me, I had valid and pressing concerns with every single 1.

You could share them in the forum itself, just as we're doing now.

I think deliberately trying to rile other members by posting some sort of Hercule Poirot style whodunnit including dog pictures may be the reason you find yourself perched so high.
