I'm experimenting with changes to the code that decides which votes count.
- romanm 17y agoI see my guess was right, what is the idea ? To make new fellows to give less karma in the beginning ?
- jacquesm 17y agoThanks for the confirmation, at least I'm not going nuts. Would it maybe be an idea to drop the buttons if you aren't going to count the votes anyway ? This feels a bit silly. If it isn't clear which vote buttons work and which ones are just pacifiers then it might lead people to stop voting completely.
- pg 17y agoVotes still get registered, even if they don't effect the current score of the item. So it is not quite the same, functionally, as taking away the buttons. Plus if I took buttons away, users would lose the visual indication of what they'd voted on.
- jacquesm 17y agoOk. But it feels inconsistent to see an integer vote count, that goes up when you vote, but after a page refresh those votes are all gone. Maybe there is a way to at least show them to the user that voted ? That way that feeling would be gone.
