There are several polls relating to down raves -- should they be anonymous, are they relevant, do we care...
We can see how many up raves we have received, from whom, and for what, on our dashboard.
I would like to see down raves I have received, from whom, and for what, on my dashboard.
(Not for retribution, but because there may be cause for rethinking my comment, for further comment, or for further discussion.)

Would you appreciate having down raves on your dashboard?

    Voting here only because there is no "Other" option.
    Seeing DR's can be a source of aggravation. If you don't know who did it or even have the ability to figure it out as we did before the September format change, there is no real purpose.
    Mass downravers usually have no rhyme, reason or purpose, except to vent their anger.
    As many of us have opined previously, abolishing anonymous downraving would cut way down on the petty vindictiveness. However, I think SH management may keep it this way to keep red thumbs from escalating into a bloody battlefield.

    I do believe the information could be useful, but I'm pretty darned sure things will stay limited and anonymous -- bloody battlefield or not! Thanks for the comments, and my apologies for the lack of "Other"!

    No big deal; good question anyway. I see they changed the system when i was away. Wonder if SH monitors it's own to see if there is a bias on the flag thing. Not even sure how that figures into anything. How've you been?

    Aren't they always changing the system? Seems like every time I take a little break, this place is all new when I come back! It's kinda hard to keep up sometimes! Ah, well. I'm good. You?

    go for it! i love it when spiderbrad, borderqueen and mikenotvick cant hide in the shadows anymore and they truly show its not bad quality but an opposing view they dont like is the real reason for dr's.

    I agree. I haven't come across those people, but hiding in the shadows shouldn't be encouraged, or accepted.

    you won't have any problems with them as long as your dillusional and a neo-marxist.

    I may be delusional, and I may be neo-Marxist. Disillusioned, but hopeful would be a better description -- not on their radar!

    Okay -- I most likely will not be making polls or comments that would attract delusional or neo-Marxist people, so spiderbrad, borderqueen and mikenotvick will probably miss me completely...

    I don't concern myself with downraves. In my own case, the downraves that I have received, had nothing to do with content, but rather just that someone disagreed with what I said. I want to enjoy my time on sodahead, and having to deal with someone else's negativity, would take away from that, so I prefer to just leave them off my dashboard.

    Having down raves on your dashboard would not mean you have to deal with them, though, now would it?

    The whole thing is that I personally comment on things that are DR worthy so you can usually assume if I am commenting about the quality of your commenting, I am one of those DR's...

    Well if you are prone to making uninformed or blatantly erroneous statements you will get a DR from me, I think I may have given 30 DR's...

    Like lets say you claim Hillary Clinton is a sparkling example of a presidential candidate that fights for our liberties...

    Unless you can manage to state a source for that, I will absolutely thumbs down you, especially with all the facts out there and her own admittance to being a CFR-NAU member....

    If you catch me making uninformed or blatantly erroneous statements, I will welcome the opportunity to correct myself. Down rave me, please! (Most especially if I make a comment about Hillary Clinton being a shining example of anything concerning fighting for our liberties.)
    I know I said I don't usually make assumptions, but... When you give a DR for content, do you also comment? I'm asking, because I don't see the point otherwise.

    But if someones grand contribution to a poll is ignorance personified, I have no issue saying it...

    you have ot deal with my DR because I will call you out in a comment... so to speak...

    you're not dense, just probably more openminded. It's an ego thing. The less negative, the happier day it is. I like sodahead because it makes me happy and going to a downrave list just makes me unhappy. :)

    Oh, that's it. I have very little ego!
    I had to make a poll about down raves, just to find out how people use them. Got a couple on the poll, as a "welcome" to SodaHead, so they are a source of fun/happiness.
    If they were because I said something stupid or offensive, I would like the opportunity to discuss it and to learn from it -- another source of happiness.
    Down raves on your dashboard could be a source of happiness, too, if the total didn't climb like the up raves did!

    Downraves are not supposed to be because of a disagreement. They are grossly misused. They are supposed to be LOW quality - like if you were buying a camera at circuitcity.com and the thing had 1 star. The reason, is because the quality of the item is low. That's closer to the purpose. Then popular polls arrive due to quality not just cuz everyone loves MCR or something like that.

    I realize that down raves are supposed to be for quality rather than for content, but I'm finding that not to be the case -- grossly misused, is right!
    I'd still like to see them, in all of their glory, with names attached, on my dashboard...
