CheeseHasLeafs Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 (edited) Maybe it's just left over from when we had downvoting.And @DiBBz yes we did have downvoting, until it was deemed that it had a negative effect on the community, at which point it was removed.

WingsOfGryphin Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 there was never a down vote button to start with it was always just liking umm... no. There was downvoting. And i never understood why it was taken away =.= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAWGUNITALPHA Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 umm... no. There was downvoting. And i never understood why it was taken away =.= Because it's pretty easy to make alt accounts and spam the downvote button. Or get your clanmates to spam downvoting.

Same goes for upvoting. In that logic they should just get rid of the voting system. But i want downvotes back.

Shion963 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 IMHO it's better this way. Some people posting "LOL DOWNVOTE ME I DON'T CARE" so much. It's like they wanted people to get angry at them, and deliberately acted like the biggest a-hole they could be or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAWGUNITALPHA Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Same goes for upvoting. In that logic they should just get rid of the voting system. But i want downvotes back. Silencing people through trollish negativity generally has a more negative impact on a community than an overinflated ego caused by self wankery. Its bad enough that most of the time people try to raise legit issues with the game get shouted down by "GAME IS BETA" or "ITS FINE LRN2PLAY" we don't need people being able to spam 200+ downvotes on them in seconds.

Sethrea Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Warframe is using a third-party forum software (Invision) which supports both down- and up-voting. Administrators can customise Invision forums to a great extend, this includes blocking both or either down- and up-voting. Basically, not really interesting or unexpected.

MueR Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Warframe is using a third-party forum software (Invision) which supports both down- and up-voting. Administrators can customise Invision forums to a great extend, this includes blocking both or either down- and up-voting. Basically, not really interesting or unexpected. Actually, Invision Power Board supports this in several ways. There's an up/down system, an up only, a down only and a "like" system. In general, on large boards, administrators choose to disable negative reputation, as it quickly becomes a tool for trolling or just stomping on any opinion that does not match your own. As your total reputation (visible on your profile) can also be used to restrict certain privileges (ie, make your post automatically flag for moderator approval, bans and more), it's highly recommended to not use such a system ever ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azure_Kytia Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 The issue they caused could have been resolved by splitting up the values for Up and Downvotes. That way we could see who down and upvoted, and could be used for basic polling, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DecoyCode Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Downvoting was taken away because some group of people spammed the S#&$ out of some guys posts with them. It was pretty amusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
