I Have A Recommendation On Recommend And Unrecommend |
|
Right now, unless somebody speaks up recommenders and unrecommenders remain anonymous.
On blogs where you can up rate and down rate, you usually can see who has done what. It becomes obvious if patterns develop.
So I recommend DUers have the ability to see who recommends and unrecommends threads.
Just a thought...

3. I wonder if the Admins can tell. |
|
There was a famous case where a group of posters were banned for voting in a poll, not realizing their votes could be identified. Can the Admins and mods see who is recing and unrecing?

...how about IP addys along with usernames?
That would make the mob activities more then obvious when 12 unrecs trace directly back to the same DLC call center.

7. one of my thoughts has always been |
|
that five votes is way too few for the "greatest" page - I'd say at least 10 - or even 15 or 20, ya know?

9. I got recommended and unrecommended, for what was a truly non-controversial OP, |
|
at least at it's inception. I figure I'm dealing with an "axe to grind" individual. Sadly, this new feature will encourage a pattern of revenge and counter-revenge, if the process remains anonymous.

10. I don't agree. Some people consistently post ideas I don't agree with and I would consistently |
|
unrec them. Others, consistently post ideas I agree with, and I consistently would rec them.
It has nothing to do with revenge. Only differences in what one believes is important, good policy, etc.

11. No offense (really), but have you been around here long? |
|
I have, and have witnessed and been victimized by, numerous gang style witch hunts.

12. Come on, victimized? on an anonymous internet board? Let's not reduce that word to meaningly drivel. |

Seeing as a place the greatest list lasts a day, it's not a huge deal to begin with.

13. Is that how DailyKos works? |
|
I've heard it uses an unrecommend-type system.
