Are you happy that the thumbs down button is gone?

20 Comments

So unless I'm crazy, when I signed up just a few days ago it was possible to thumbs-down comments. Now it's not. Do you think this was good change? Or alternatively, am I just confused?

Yes, I'm glad it's gone. 12

    Can't the management track who votes down what? That would make it easy to find the voting down fiend. Cause frankly, it's annoying.

    The management changed it so only older members can use it.

    I think this is part of why I left for a bit, cause so many comments were just getting voted down for no real reason.

    So I think this is a good thing.

        quot erat demonstrandum, it seems limiting it to older members does not mean it's going to be used more responsibly.

        Maybe they should get rid of it altogether...

    Is it still there only for IIN gold members?

    I'd hate it to be like facebook where everybody likes everything. We have trolls here.

    Well, this explains a lot. I was wondering why I couldn't downvote comments! >=(

    No; because it was gone before I got here. That's why I see negative signs but I can't give any myslelf...

    They only got rid of it for a little while for the new users. The old users do still have it.

    They still have it don't they? Are you sure they took it out? How are there still people getting down-voted in that case?
