I just noticed the voting system they have on youtube.com now.

Why can't ebaumsworld.com have something like that so we can vote off idiots and racists who are just here to start shit? If a majority of people negatively vote a person within a certain time frame then they will get a temp ban or a perm ban.

Just an idea.... It is not reps, but it will still give people a chance to give input without starting a flame war in every single post. Imagine people just clicking on a thumbs down symbol instead of writing a 4 paragraph argument. Imagine all the bandwidth saved on unnecessary posts.

Just an idea that might actually work!



Edit***** I meant in the forums

Metacafe added that like 2-3 years ago. Ebw added it months ago. (if you have an account log in)

I meant to say in the forums. I don't really use the emuse thing they setup.

That's why we have the report bad post button. Use that to report the bad posts and we will get to them as soon as possible.
