There is no downvote system here.

He was talking about Ovarit, and something we would want to see somewhere else. I like the way saidit is set up in that aspect.

Right.

It may be worth asking about and discussing next-forum voting stuff.

I'm guessing Lenny out of the box has up/down votes. I'd also guess it's not easy to change it or add an extra vote or 2 or 25 or even metatags (or something complex like MetaVote™).

One thing I know for certain: 1 vote = +1 point.

I don't like these:

  • insightful = +2 points (fun = +1 point)
  • downvote = -1 point

On most video platforms you see the ratio of like to dislike without meddling maths. I wonder if there are any Reddit-like forums that do that?
