I still think the best idea I’ve seen (I’m reiterating it because I think it bears more discussion) is to allow downvoting only if you’ve not submitted anything in a category. Personally, I’d rather see, like, a limit. Like you get 20 downvotes once you’ve submitted something. That way, people can still downvote stuff that’s horrible without being able to downvote EVERYTHING.

Except this wouldn’t stop klans from downvoting everything not made by their klan. I understand that it’s supposed to be anonymous, but I think we all know that this isn’t always the case. I have to support the idea that downvoting gets replaced by ignore or some such thing.

As for people downvoting everything that isn’t their’s: this is just wrong. I understand the reasoning, but what’s worse? Your crappy idea making it or someone else’s very worthy idea making it? Are scoops really that important that you need to obliterate every good submission? Mine aren’t. Hell, I’ll be the first to admit that reading one of my ideas can be worse than watching a celebutante sex tape. That’s why I upvote for good ideas, even if they aren’t mine. But then, I never believe mine will make it anyway.Log in to see images!
