Who else likes the new rating system?
I can't believe all of you purported Obama supporters suddenly fear change.

This isn't like the block feature for krist's sake.

1. I don't like it because it will be too difficult for me to
find your posts disparaging the homeless.

9. Look who you're talking to
I'm shocked my GD thread made it the GP. I figured the half of DU I pissed off would be rating it down enough. :shrug:

Popularity contest or not, I lie in the bed I made.

5. I want the low ratings to light up on the list too so I can see where the flamage is
It sure would be more fun than waiting and searching for "locking"

11. Good point. However..
I think you'll be able to find those threads much faster before they're locked. Just think about it - you'll be able to get in on threads you mourned missing out on. :D

17. Isn't that only on the GP?
Doesn't it show up on the forum page? :shrug:

I think it does, as I've seen two threads, one skip it, and one disruptive so far tonight.

7. It's not so bad.
But I do think it will be used for evil, much like the block feature was. But then again that how it goes on the tubes. :shrug:

10. So far, I hate it.
I'm just discovering it ... and I think it will discourage people like me from posting. Is there a way to block it?

:(

13. I think most will buck up
If anything, it will encourage you to really think about a thread you start, and "improve" it if you want it to be rated up.

I know I need to try harder now if I want to be rated up, and that's fine. In fact, I expect to be rated down.
