This has probably been brought up before, and if it was recently feel free to troll (harder then you already will, this is EVE we are talking about). But could we get a Dislike column?

Pros:

  1. Can see how many dislikes there are of something
  2. People new to the forum will no longer glance and assume reply count - like count = dislike count
  3. One person can't post over and over to skew the numbers, even bitter vets have to parse though pages and pages to figure out how much of the non liked replies are no votes, or if there is just a lot of discussion on the topic
  4. With the ability for people to like without replying now it means that the closest thing you have to go in is the amount of views the thread has, since those are not unique views (this is an assumption) the amount of dislike for a proposal is also not really parseable from there either.


Cons:
Will take up real estate, Invariably meaning one of the other columns will have to shrink pixel wise.

I know that you can actually have more likes then replies now but that doesn't seem to happen too much

If you want dislikes and lack of moderation, head over to that famous third party forum.

Over here, keep it civil. Even bitter vets can tell which posts are worth reading and which aren't. Pity you can't tell which posts are worth posting :)

Not supported at all - this way lies e-bullying.
Also, neither likes nor dislikes give much indication for the support of a proposal/issue. They might refer to any posting in a thread, not the proposal itself. I'd strongly prefer to have the old "support" option back, along with possibly a "not supported" option to show things in perspective.
