    meh, I think a comment is much more important, and acknowledgable than a simple downrave...

    If I disagree with someone, i would simply say it, instead of hiding behind an anonymous button... I think things can only get more interesting now.

    I have gotten some DR's, but the site only notifies me of raves. I would certainly respond to a DR quicker than to a Rave. DR should be disrespect, that is what it amounts to. . . Usually.

    But those who give DRs are interesting.

    Maybe not more boring. But I thought it was good to just be able to give a down rave if you didn't agree with something someone says.

    They didn't get rid of down raves....they tried to fix the random DR problem....
    As long as there are smartasses like us around, this place will never be boring!

    I concur.

    I don't think it's boring, but the whole down rave system is a joke.

    Somer people just abused them and even used them as a weapon. I won;t miss them as I only downraved bigotry and attacks on individuals which is usually rare.

    I come here to talk to people and share opinions. I don't give a damn about DR's. I only wanted it to say who had done them.

    We haven't finished adjusting the DownRaves. We have considered adding "Respectfully Disagree" as the Thumbs Down and adding a "Report Abuse Flag" which will function like the current DR (report abuse options).

    Please keep sending your feedback. Don't expect changes overnight. We know we'll never satisfy everyone -- lots of people like the new changes or don't care. Either way, DRs shouldn't dictate your like/dislike of SH. You, your friends (new and old) and the content and connections you all create makes SH.

    I think down raves should be renamed BiteMe jestures. BiteMe is a walking talking downer. The AMA is considering renaming the illness depression after him.

    No, I think it will make it better, No longer will there be childish stalkers going around downraving you with out a just reason, ANd that means they will have to use their brains other then their own feelings
  • raves +1   [-] mk, Supreme Smartass replied to Dogg ~ preparing for tomorrow
    But then what will become of the brainless members we have here?
