RIP Voting Feature

It was worth a shot but just didn’t work out. The voting feature will be removed in the near future.

The worst part is I have to admit Former Trader was right. He’s still never getting his HoF though.

What didnt work about it?

Clearly, it was a failure, as Nery is by far the best poster here, but somehow has like -800 points.

Let’s all downvote STL and see how far we can get.

i mean we can agree that in water cooler it is broken. but i can imagine that this works well in the lower forum levels.

In the CFA forums, there were instances of trolls downvoting legit answers to serious, test-related questions. That’s obviously unacceptable since that’s why this forum exists in the first place.

Here in the WC it didn’t work as intended for several reasons, but - and this is solely my opinion - we’re not a large enough community to support a voting feature. People were way too liberal with the downvoting and very few people bothered to ever upvote. The result were a lot of posts with one or two downvotes for seemingly no reason. That sort of negativity just isn’t very fun. And real trolls/spammers rarely received enough downvotes to have their comment hidden, so the self-moderating aspect of the feature didn’t pan out either.

Oh well. It was worth a shot.

So basically you are cancelling Nerdys 600 Karma points debt, that he had to repay via positive posts about bitcoin guy and his vegas escapades. How socialist of you

He actually owes Chad 14 dopp kits.

I think STL should leave the policy discussions to people with above -400 AF points. The people have spoken.

I always said this would fail. It pains me to say this, but I declare victory over STL.

Delete the WC.

How young and naive you were then STL.

Wishful thinking, I guess. I vastly underestimated how hard it was to push the upvote button.

you mean below right!

Doesn’t count if you are one of the people abusing the system lol

Given our size, I think fake votes were too high a proportion of total votes. It was clear certain posters were gaming it

this is what i feel about this thread

look there. We’re all proving ourselves to be idiotic (regarding level 3 candidates). Except for me, I’m exceptionally bright - duh.

Does this mean I can’t redeem my AF points for cool AF memorabilia? This is horse shit.

hah that thread turned into an AF point massacre
