Reply #23: This has nothing to do with the Greatest Page.

You could still require a 5+ rec vote margin to make the page.

I see the current system of taking the peoples' rec/votes away from them as distorting the main forum, this symbol <0 is applied evenhandedly to a thread with 100 unrecs and 0 recs as a thread with 105 unrecs and 100 recs.

With this symbol of <0 you can't tell except on rare occasions whether your rec or unrec vote was counted because their is no visibility.
