The "Vote up" topic

Oh, Tyler. You HAVE to be doing that on purpose, buddy. I hope so, at least, so I don't feel bad when I laugh.

The thing is that sometimes I do, sometimes I don't.

The pickle about unvoting is two-fold. One, it means trying to pull something out of the activity feed, which is event agnostic. (It's even language agnostic, which you would know if you ran the Spanish version if the forums.) Once something is published, it has no relationship to the event, and is thus hard to find.

The second problem is having to recalc, and possibly revoke awards. We don't use any rewards this way (yet), but other users could in theory do it on their sites.

Just spitballing....maybe if the "vote up" were on the opposite side away from the vote tally where we might click to see WHO voted up?

I work with engineering types, so please feel free to ignore if I'm "over-tweaking." ;~P

Even though there may be a little room for improvement, CoasterBuzz is almost perfect. I sometimes have a hard time imagining how it could be better.

We should have a double vote up too.

We should be able to vote up as much as we want. How else are you going to know how much I like something. Right now it's binary. On/off. Yes/no. I need more! I need those shades of grey! I like this, but I like this more.

Moar vote ups! Moar!

And blackjack. And firetrucks.

Yeah. I want to vote the two posts above mine at least 6 times each, but I can't.

Jeff makes valid points. I'm fine with no un-vote up.

I suppose the moral to the story is to read the entire post before you pounce on the Vote up button, because sometimes you might regret it. Wait before you Vote up. It's kind of like life. Don't count all your eggs before they hatch. And stuff.

More is better than less because if stuff is not less... if there's more less stuff then you might, you might want to have some more and your parents just don't let you because there's only a little.

Why Nicky?

Because it rhymes with flash...

...close.

It's better to be fast, to not be bitten by a werewolf, and then you'll be turned into one, and you'll have to stay in, and then you'll have to get shaved because you'll be too hot, and then you're like, "grrrra, grrra, grrra, grrrr, grrr, grrraaa" which means, "I wish I was back to a human..."

Uhhh, what?

We gotta get that guy to sit around a table with a bunch of CBuzzers...

We need a pay-per-vote system. Someone call Lo-Q. Jeff is leaving money on the table.

Off topic, but it's bothering me: Carrie, my bad eyes don't allow me to read the bottom of your avatar/meme. Can you, or anyone else, tell me what the words are below "I DESPISE?" and the picture?

I think it says "your grammar speak."

Or maybe that's just what I want it says... ;~P

I love those commercials. I don't even care what they are selling. The kids are hilarious.

And yes, sometimes in real life I might throw a few run-on rantings out there, because normal communication can be boring sometimes. :D

I'm worried all of these options could take away the charm of the vote-up button.

"Simply keep the simplicity."

a proverb of Tyler Boes.

I like that, Tyler. It's another way of saying, "Keep it simple, stupid!"
