Transparent votes?

There's been a lot of "discussion" in the one-liner box about whether voting should be transparent, i.e. you can see who voted (and their vote's value).

I feel that things should stay as they are, just the number of votes and "weighted" vote shown for each entry. That would save all the arguments "why did you vote low for me?" or "he/she is a lamer, they voted low for me/my release"

What do others think?

YES very vise solution! Now who doesn't vote transparently is the biggest lamer in the world ;-))) (I should post that on C64.sk ;-)

Hm I think this stil doesn't solve the problem completely. I would suggest to display at least list of users who voted for the entry.

Or at least (somewhere in the statistics) the (complete) list of users with number of votes they have casted ;-)

Hmm, nice, but what do we do with ppl voting for themselves/their groups?

the first step is done but it won't help at all as the downvoters will never turn this feature on,
auto exposing at vote 1,2,3 would be better. Maybe on 10 and 9, too.

btw. puterman is very hard to satisfy, guess all coders have to improve a lot if they want a high vote ,-D

regards

nail them on the cross like in the past would be a proper answer for selfvoting...

Slator: I have an odd taste in demos. And I haven't voted a 10 so far. Quite a few 9s, though. Still waiting for that perfect demo that'll never be made.

Ah, all I wanted for peace of mind in this world was to confirm my strong suspicion that it was indeed Puterman voting 1 to certain mags quite systematically, thanks csdb crew :))

what about making votes transparent which absolutely don't fit to the rest of the votes?

I agree. That auto exposing those rates thing seems like a good idea. :)

We also thought about that.

Actually we made something that should display these votes, but we didn't activate it because:
1. When is a vote 'anormal' enough? (sugestions are welcome)
2. If someone just simply disagrees with others (that happens) should they then be exposed just because of that?

In my oppinion the absolutely best solution is down-grade the votes which appear extreme in some way. No exposiure of ppl who don't want their oppinion out.
Unfortunately I have no idea of how to figure out what is extreme and how you should down-grade it.
Some statistics-guru out there who can help?
