Title: good post system Post by: phelix on July 03, 2011, 10:41:26 AM we need this:
http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=1890 I know the last attempt on an applaud / smite system failed badly. That was because it was user based not post based and because it allowed down votes. I am not sure if it is possible to disallow downvotes with this mod. Anyway, it seems a lot better than the previous one and we should give it a try. screenshot: http://bitcoinx.com/pics/goodpost.png Title: Re: good post system Post by: BitcoinPorn on July 03, 2011, 12:17:22 PM +1
I'd like to try that out, never used a forum with that. Title: Re: good post system Post by: Jimerson on July 06, 2011, 11:08:55 PM I think this would be a good thing. Quite a few boards have a "Thank user for this post" feature.
Title: Re: good post system Post by: amincd on July 08, 2011, 05:55:37 AM I like it. I think elimination of the signature saves space and makes the threads more readable.
Title: Re: good post system Post by: phelix on July 08, 2011, 04:51:34 PM I like it. I think elimination of the signature saves space and makes the threads more readable. that really was not the point - signatures are superb.I simply do not have the time to read through 100 posts every day to find the jewels. Title: Re: good post system Post by: phelix on July 12, 2011, 09:06:18 AM who can make this decision? btw: what is "command structure" behind the bitcoin board?
Title: Re: good post system Post by: cunicula on July 12, 2011, 09:43:58 AM upvoting is a really good idea. However, I think it would be better to allow weighted upvoting. I would give the upvotes of users whose posts are often upvoted extra weight. Weighting should be based on a geometric average of the users' average number of upvotes per post and the users' total number of upvotes.
For example, upvote weight = (average upvotes per post)^0.9 * (total number of upvotes)^0.1 The opinions of users without any upvotes would be given zero weight. Title: Re: good post system Post by: theymos on July 12, 2011, 09:57:24 AM I really dislike the idea of showing scores that are universal across the board, as it discourages controversial viewpoints and creates a need for more moderation. A true web of trust would be good, though it could not be a replacement for fixing the moderation system.

A true web of trust would be good, though it could not be a replacement for fixing the moderation system. Scores do not necessarily discourage controversial viewpoints. Someone offering a good expression of an opinion held by a small minority can easily score far higher than someone repeating stuff people have heard before. Tp achieve this, it is important here to make voting limited (e.g. one upvote per user per day).

Title: Re: good post system Post by: peach on July 12, 2011, 04:11:19 PM I wouldn't like to see this implemented. Forums have their place. We are not Reddit.
Title: Re: good post system Post by: phelix on August 08, 2011, 05:40:04 PM bump!
Title: Re: good post system Post by: TheBitMan on August 14, 2011, 11:33:59 AM I always thought of that but never brought it up, I would like to see that.
