I've already taken to calling it an "up yours" rather than a "thumbs up". That negative enough for you? :wink:
One more thing, Jeremy, can you change it so the green thumbs up is a right hand and the grey thumbs up is a left hand?
I'm just messing with you, it looks great.

Sorry if I didn't clarify enough to start. It's a good idea in theory, but I have only seen it work well on sites that people either pay to be a part of, or on sites that are developed for people with a particular sense of humor.
Is voting for yourself when running for President cheating?
You're only doing it wrong if you like something a Hawk said.
Personally, I think it is; but then again that is probably because I think people should have to pass an IQ test to vote.
So right now, it seems like it is only a positive rep function. it seems that we can give a thumbs up, but not give a thumbs down. The only time you see the red thumbs down is after you have given a green thumbs up, but when you click on it, you don't actually give someone a thumbs down. Do you intend to introduce a negative rep function?
I'm going to go with what has been said by those running the show before and say no
I'm already dating one hawk fan. I don't know if I could handle two.
UHF is a fantastic movie that so many people don't know about. I get odd looks when I quote it in public sometimes.
I remember when people first started freaking out about how funny "Kramer" was from Seinfeld...I was all like...yeah, that's just Stanley Spadowski from UHF redone a bit. Also, on getting my first "Thumbs up" since likes went away...I'm not lying, I felt like the kid who found the marble in the oatmeal.

I get what you're saying. Like the Mafia games that got extra fluffy, but you weren't supposed to mention it.
I have no idea what you mean by that. Were people posting things there to just get their post count up or something?
No, there's really not going to be a negative rep function anytime soon, that I can tell. That grey image is only to indicate that it's a thumbs up you have given - the image is cached, Jeremy has changed it to a grey thumbs up. It may take a while to show for you.

I only played once when that was going on, but essentially that was the deal, especially in those first couple of days.
Got a good argument going, so that part was good. Overall, there was a pack mentality to it, probably mostly from the same folks that you're mentioning.
All that to say: The negative thing would probably just turn into a cultish groupthink deal. If a person didn't care when the groupbomb hit, it wouldn't be a huge issue. If they did, it would stir up a storm, and that toy would probably (and justifiably) go away.
I really see no need for a negative rep thing whether it be rep, dislike or thumbs down. If someone is posting something so bad that it deserves something like that, they are going to get flamed from all corners anyway. At that point a little red Cesearean thumb is just piling on.
