shropshire 0 #26 February 11, 2009 Quote The idea has been discussed. I believe Sangiro didn't like the idea of popularity contests which we pretty much all agreed is something it would just devolve into. Same reason the site doesn't do "karma points" or anything else like that. Articles have a rating system applied to them, but not the posts in forums. Seems a bit more appropriate and general members of the site don't get any artificial boost in status. A paragliding forum that I subscribe too has Karma points and I for one don't like it ... it tends to be enhance cliquishness (.)Y(.)

livendive 8 #33 February 11, 2009 QuoteQuoteQuoteI find it to be a somewhat lame response in that it in an attempt to be brief, it actually degrades the signal to noise ratio rather than improves it. More bandwidth is being used by the headers than the message itself. I find it a better response than just repeating what the last guy said. Only marginally. It's supposed to be a discussion forum. If a person is in complete agreement it doesn't move the discussion forward if nothing is added or debated. It adds a data point. Lots of data points can bolster an argument.

Many forums require something to be in the description so when someone agrees with another poster they'll quote their post and put a period in their own post.
