I think it's awesome Perff took the time to implement this.
Too bad (or logically) it doesn't really make a difference in vote results. Anonymous and Public voters are equally clueless/cluefull ;)
Or maybe, the anon upvoters get cancelled out by the anon downvoters and vice versa.
And maybe, the public upvoters get cancelled out by the pubic downvoters too!
Anyways, the comments is where your peer-reviews are, not the votes. |

It makes a difference if the compo outcome is affected, right? :) |

if you are stupid enough to determine compo results from csdb voting, then yes. even then i doubt it has a greater impact than the fact that by far not everyone votes for each entry and only picks a few favourites. |

I think the anonymous votes will disappear from this site in the future, when the riots can't be controlled anymore. Allāhu Akbar. |

that will definately not happen unless enough public votes have been collected to even show a result for as many entries at it can be done at the moment. dont count on it before 2040 =) |

when you are 44 years old, votes dont really matter anymore.
it gives a better feeling to see the nr of downloads, so you know your stuff is seen.
you cant change peoples taste, if they dont like classical music they will vote 5 on a mozart masterpiece no matter..
anyway, this site is so cumbersome and old to use.
i will preserve the general look/feel, but csdb 2.0 will happen,when i get wordpress to stop some bs errors :)
honestly dont think perff has any time to really do the haul here that is needed, so someone just gonna do it someday, and it will be a good thing for me to do.
i cant say any date, but want to create a website again and if anything, csdb will be it. nobody visits personal websites anymore. we are all slaves to the evil corporations, youtube, soundcloud, facebook and you know it :) |

Thumbs up for the "public votes" add-on! :-)
Although the weighted averages don't really make sense anymore when you have an even smaller number of votes in the calculation. I know it's an old topic, but it seems to me that the main difference in the results ("all votes" compared to "public votes only") seem to be a mere consequence of too little votes for the weighted average system to work properly. |

isnt it? now guess what the main reason for implementing that stuff was ...
...avoiding the negative psychological effect of "backstabbing" with downvotes, not the representation of the actual score without them. Downvotes don't add to it anyway. I don't think that this "fix" actually solves too much.
Why is this so fucking hard to understand?
Btw. I don't understand why is my account still active, as if I remember correctly, I asked for its deletion a few weeks ago. |
