abuse of the like/dislike system

[PH]

will not be tolerated from this point forward

i realize it's there to be used but don't act like a fucking idiot, use it in moderation

if any other staffers disagree please feel free to say so, otherwise i'm going to start handing out swift kicks in the ass for like/dislike spam

Are you referring to me?
As u can see I also Like a lot of posts.
Wheres my freedom of liking/disliking?

I truly also dislike your post.
If you ban me for this your personality would become very clear to me.

You can remove my dislikes @ cres btw.
After having a chat with him i found out some background info and I realize i have had the wrong perspective on him while judging whether to like/dislike him.

looooool the +1/-1 has come far

we should enable the feature whereby if a post receives a high enough negative rating (calculated very simply as: # likes - # dislikes) it auto collapses. then we'd see some real abuse.

:clown:

speaking of like/dislike, i still have to finish tweaking it so it looks right when using the default theme or the darkness theme. few other minor usability tweaks i've been meaning to get to as well. man, i'm so damn lazy. it's summer and i have a lot of booze to swallow.

So is 'abuse' of this going to be determined by all Forum Mods at once or just going to be determined by someone on the fly?

Don't want to abuse the determination of abuse either. That'll just lead to a predictable situation and a thread you can already assume what will be said for 10 - 20 posts before it gets closed...

[the_paul]

there any dispute that this is abuse?

I laughed when I was typing that ... decided to leave it. lol.


Yes, it looks like Oranje is abusing the button a bit but he doesn't really gain anything from it -- it's not like you get pub bux for each one or something...

I suppose you get your name on top of a list somewhere on the internet but I didn't even know that was there until paul posted image....

[Adman]

Get rid of it then...
