Votesystem FAIL

OK, so why the vote system still exists, especially after all the devastating things it produces, is absolutely way beyond me.
It's rarely a representation of an objective, summarized opinion of the community. Either it's a playground for immature ding-dong fights I've had the luck to experience the last time in kindergarten, or it's simply a place for good old fashioned circlejerks.

I second Scout. At least I second the notion that this isn't really a place where I'd like to spend my spare time.

The constant pop-ups of topics considering the defecting vote-system is clearly a sign of something not working here the way it should. And yet, the cry ups keep getting ignored. For years.

Captain obvious is here to present you two options. One is to finally fix it, the other is to remove it for good. The latter one would be probably the best for all of us. And I think I'm speaking in the name of 99% of CSDb users here when I say that. Time to realize we are not IMDb with hundreds of millions of users, where a similar voting model works (more or less). Here, it's flawed and it simply fails on many, many levels

Pretty pretty please. Dudes who make and administer this site. Your work is fucking damn appreciated. I'd suck of all of you without a single second of consideration.

But for fucks sake.

Quoting CryBaby
I'm an idiot for bringing it up at all.
Glad you realised that :-D

HEY! But Perff should be thankful and include the following lines this into CSDb's codebase:
if($Jailbird == "bored at work" && $Oswald == "bogár") {
    $CSDb_drama = TRUE;
    $fun = TRUE;
    do{
        perff_relax();
    } while (users_entertained() == TRUE);
} else {
    $fun = FALSE;
    do{
        perff_fix_bugs();
    } while (eternity() == TRUE);
}

Hmm.. JB, didn't you and Dr.Phil talk about this? Don't let your energy come out as phorum thread posts.. let it come out as pixels instead. You just need a clean sheet of paper, or load Gunpaint, then just let it out :).

@HCL: Admit it, you're just jealous about Jailbird's coding abilities. ;)

Voting 1 really doesn't downvote. Check for yourself. ;-)
What's wrong with the calculations Perff ?

Voting shouldn't be anonymous. And it should be easier to vote, instead of losing the thread (going back and forth).
Votes of 1-6 would be more than enough, use your dice. :D

1) Removing anonymous voting.
I'm fine with that

2) Using Ajax (or similar mechanism) in certain parts of CSDB.
It's ok for me too as long as Perff is happy with it.

3) Interpolating all voting system from 1-10 to 1-6.
I don't think CSDB ppl want to chance existing database like this. Btw, who said 1-6 is the best voting levels anyway?

Kill anon-voting.

Kill voters-without accounts.

Require account holders to attach to a scener entry.

LET THE RAG SESSIONS START!
