Voting System

Recommended Posts

Keep the Upvotes and remove the Downvotes.

If people don't like something then they should not even Vote.

Let the Elysium Page stay clean from negative effects , comments and offtopics like Nostalrius used to do back in the days.

Everyone is on their intentions for their own opinions , but there are some minority of 30 (individuals) around who downvote regardless of Statement/Opinion/Topic .

Any Negative sign around the Project ignored will lead to high Toxic server , with high Toxic server there are extreme consequences at the end.

We all know how Wowservers Reddit is today , especially with Vote Manipulations etc.

/Kind regards Killerduki

I agree with this Killerduki, 

Negativity attracts negativity. If someone disagrees with something its better they vocalize it in a post anyways.

Can't say I'm surprised that Killerduki and Theloras are one of the first to bring up this issue. I disagree though. I think downvotes provide an avenue to show criticism. You'd have less of them if you didn't repeat yourself five times in that one thread alone.

cuz their argument was flawed - you can't cherry pick which items get buffed/nerfed

downvoting was removed because of flagrant abuse by people like Holystrike who downvoted any post either Duki or I wrote - the same happened here

That's fine. That's your opinion and you made it. Then you made it again. And again. And again. Then brought your wife up cause she got doxxed? Make your point and leave it at that.

PS Holystrike got forum banned for flagrant downvoting abuse FYI

The beauty of the internet is people of a wide range of opinions on subjects have the ability to discuss and debate. "+1/-1" doesn't honestly add anything to the debate. That was all I was saying. In my personal opinion its better to vocalize your opinion than have a +1/-1 system as conversation leads to understanding :)

I will change my opinion slightly. Certain sections of the forum should not have voting. Such as guild recruitment. Areas like that, any voting shouldn't have impact and would have consequences that could be manipulated to affect a guild's legitimacy and people wouldn't have control over it. However I think voting for example in class sections is very valuable. That way the community can show strongly where some information is considered accurate and quality and some considered incorrect or misleading.

Downvoting is a bullshit metric. easily open to abuse and here's why.

This is just me showing the failing of the downvote system - not trying to $hit on you or abuse it the way Holystrike did to both Duki and I back in December. The forum moderators removed downvoting because of this and it was for a very good reason.

But yes, I just wanted to illustrate that it isn't a very good metric to judge a poster of the value of what they write given the fact that it is so easy to abuse.

Better than sole postcount, as postcount is even easier to abuse. Get better soon. Complain if you need, you're allowed to.

Each account is limited to 10 a day too though so it's not like reddit where it's unlimited.

that's fine but I could unleash every Ret/Prot Paladin from each server to FCUK with you if I wanted to

And you are asking why people are saying you should be banned on this forum. I mean I'm not trying to be a jerk but step back and take a fresh look at yourself.

I'm not threatening you - merely pointing out how the downvoting system can be abused by people who tell all their friends/guildmates/fellow trolls to downvote someone and pass through the 10 vote cap per day system in place
