Thumbs Down Feature for Forums

[Verecund]

If you don't like something, ignore it.

If you don't like something and it goes beyond the the normal bounds of human ignorance, report it.

That's why we should be able to rate (up and down) the thread (the OP), not individual posts in the later discussion.

Saying that people downrate an idea just for the hell of it works both ways, i.e.:

Thread 1: "QQ Please Nerf Archer"
Thread 2: "QQ Please Do Not Nerf Archer"

According to that theory the same guy who downrates the first idea will also downrate the second. IMO it's a dumb theory.

Just limit thumbs up or down to OP, and show up and down count separately.

I like the idea so I can easily disagree with a proposed idea without having to write up the same long post that the first dude did that covers my whole argument anyhow.
