Repeal Anonymous Voting

Anonymous voting allows cowards to abuse the voting system. People downvote like sneaky little bastards. If you are voting for a person, group or release and you feel that your particular vote is how you honestly feel then there is no reason to conceal your vote. Repealing anonymous voting would weed out a large portion of the downvoters.

A link to Skates thread perhaps? It's hard to locate it in the jungle of votesystem-fail-threads. Come to think of it, the fact that there is a multitude of threads about this should perhaps give an indication of something? Nah! Can't be.

Furthermore, I think the anonymous voting on CSDb must be destroyed.

It seems some people like votes, but prefer them not to be anonymous.

Is that such a hard feature to modify?

Are there waves upon waves of people wanting it to remain anonymous? Oh that's right, they are being anonymous. etc.

many people probably don't want to be judged and downvoted because of the votes they have given to others and choose to stay anonymous. but then, they are downvoted anonymously, too. that's the real ironi here. :)

As a matter of fact, i've been temporarily downvoted in retaliation for a non-anonymous midrange vote i gave on another musician just a few weeks ago.

Mind though, I wasnt downvoting in the first place. It was an honest vote of mine.

So although i support public voting, i can understand why some people prefer to vote anonymously.
Not because they want to stir shit up but to avoid having their shit stirred for giving honest non-back-patting votes.

Still, i will keep my votes public.
