ADD Dislike button

[Lambdafish]

No, thanks. Experience from other forums indicate that such a feature very easily lends itself to abuse. Which is why the general trend is to not have dislike buttons.

Abuse in what way? If a point is disagreed on by a lot of people, surely adding a lot of dislikes is a better indicator than flooding the thread with negative comments. Why feed trolls and bump threads back to the top when you can just dislike them and move on.
