Seems lots of people are not particularly keen on the voting feature given how it is being "misused" (according to some).

How about a setting which allows you to opt out? Hides your percentage from others, but also means you can't see the percentage of others, nor partake in voting.

I did suggest an opt out option in DM to the site owner. I'm yet to receive a reply.

opt out like just not upvoting or downvoting? Count me in been doing it for yonks.

Are people that bothered they give a shit what others think?

Yes, apparently some people strongly dislike the feature.

Love it.

It's a true barometer of feeling.

Actually typing a reply would also be a true reflection of feeling. Easier to hide behind a downvote though isn't it

I'm not arsed about it, but if peoplke are...then maybe just have like/dislike options for individual posts and scrap the "league"

Make the voting public, imagine the drama.

The way in which some people are using it is basically a form of cyber bullying. It's a shame because it is a good tool for highlighting certain posts.

I accidentally did my first ever vote the other day and reversed it straight away.

Not totally sure why anyone gives a shit, though.

You can opt out by just not using it

Agree on this.
Make it all transparent.
