Random topic closures
"Adam summed things up nicely and now another pointless thread about voting at CSDb comes to a close.
(read: Things aren't going to change)"
I am tired too about that topic, but just because *you* dont like it, its no reason to close it. This moderator function is abused way too much. |

StainlessSteel and anybody else who encounter such troublesome shitheads: just tell me and I'll get rid of them without thinking 2 times.
Anybody who will be get caught pestering others about votes will be permabanned. You have been warned and I'm not going to repeat myself. |

So anywhere up to 32 people, then. Or up to 243 people, if you're using ternary dactylonomy. |

So basically because of (insert number between 1 to 5 here) person(s) who can't handle feedback the voting must be anonymous to ensure people won't get harassed even though if these said persons "who will be get caught pestering others about votes will be permabanned"...
Who is this hidden votes supposed to protect? Certainly not self entitled lunatics who only get's themselves banned, so who?
Logic around this policy fails here and sorry, nothing was summed up nicely as was the argument for closing the other thread.
Now in regards to closing threads, fine by me no worries if the topic is leading nowhere and is closed due to this. |

imho moderation exist is to keep the peace, now if a topic doesnt disturb that, why close it ? let people went it out from their system :)
topic and forum is for people to blabble for whatever they feel like it, not to solve problems or to lead anywhere. |

The initial post by jb was about the seemingly flawed algorithm. Then someone threw in the anonymous votes and things went berserk. Let's try again? The show must go on for anonymous csdb.dk lurkers. |

In my many years of public voting, I can only recall one PM where I got a complaint about a vote. It wasn't really harassment, just something like "why did you downvote my pic?" And then I replied that 6 wasn't a downvote. But yeah, it's unfortunate that virtually only votes from 8-10 are used, even for demos that don't show anything new, since people aren't encouraged to come up with something new then.
Quoting TWWnothing was summed up nicely I love you.
Quoting Oswaldlet people went it out from their system :) And you too. |

1) all votes go public
2) a bunch of people will stop voting, because of various reasons
3) results are even more statistically irrelevant than before
4) another thread about how the voting is terrible will emerge |

Guess it would be way to easy to disable the CSDB voting completely, no?
Or just add the points together so there wouldn't be any "retarded" downvoting at all. =:-) |

IMHO the problem sometimes is the lack of written feedbacks than votes public or not, but anyway, a compromise could be to allow an entry creator to choose a certain voting system: only public, only anonym, mixed ... |
