I can easily replace the like buttons with an upvote/downvote reputation system, which would more or less achieve what you're looking for. However, we had this on 3DS Buzz back when I was still an admin there, and I spent 80% of my time moderating votes. It was a nuisance for moderators every time someone complained that their post was unfairly disliked and prompted an investigation, and I removed the system entirely because it proved to be such a waste of the staff's time. I don't want to put myself or my moderators through that ever again.

The Like system is nice and simple - it allows you to express your approval for a post when you don't have much to say about it in response, and people don't get butthurt over a positive point like they do over a negative one.

A dislike button works on that site because well *laughs maniacally*... I mean no one gives two poops. Or three.


Funnily enough the dislike option works pretty well on Youtube; at least after they removed the users' ability to see the amount of dislikes a commenter had.

Yeah, that is kinda what I had in mind.
However, Feld0 has tried this before, so I can't blame him/her.
Thanks for your feedback Feld.

I asked that question around the time I migrated here - yes, Feld0's a guy.
