I got a proposition. Why dont remove an down vote in voting in forum buildr? Its being abused. The people with high scores vote low on the new submited content and their work win. What about leaving only up vote?

I lost at domination?! How could this happen to me?

Also, the ability to change submitted votes would be nice.

I voted up on some styles but found out later that there are better ones to choose from, and now the crappier-looking ones are winning.Log in to see images!

That’s a -5 or -10 at most? I’m not entirely sure what the threshold is for a new idea getting thrown out, but it sounds to me like the number of people doing that would be negligible.

But some submissions are genuinely terrible. If you submit a forum idea named “aaaaaaa” with the description “USERNAME is an idiot”, you deserve to be downvoted. I would rather have the competitive benefits removed completely because they only serve to attract bumholes who will do anything to sabotage their opponents.

I’m fairly certain -5 will do it. I’m basing that on several ideas I submitted

EDIT: see post above, duplicate thread.

If people didn’t make complete **** ideas maybe people wouldn’t use the down vote.
