I don't understand why would have to have a limited number of stamps per day. I think you said it was to stop people from spamming but I don't see what the problem is. It's a little non-obtrusive stamp. It would be like giving people a limited number of posts a day to try and counter spam, it's just silly.
I honestly only put that cap on it to appease the "it can be abused!" people. The fact is that if that .01% chance of a member of the web team seeing this is realized, the more positive the feedback on it, the better.

It was shameless pandering.

You either agree with something, or you don't. Therefore, +1 or -1. I really cannot see how a +/- 1 on posts and threads would devalue anything. It could bump higher quality/more original content onto the frontpage/top of it and all forums would benefit as a whole - you wouldn't sift through crappy threads before finding something different.

And yes, I do use reddit. A lot.

Ah, That's OK then. I just don't get why we'd be limited even though it doesn't do anything except show agreement.

Also, DAT TRIPLE POST. Yeah, I saw it. ;-)

I'm on my iPhone posting at work. The least amount of effort I can put forth (making multiple responses instead of one big one), the better.

I can agree that "Qft" and other similar posts are spam, but they serve a fairly important purpose. That purpose being keeping threads alive for others to see. Would you be opposed to this system "bumping" a thread every x amount of +1's? How many +1's would it take to bump a thread?

I like the idea of being able to leave positive feedback on a quality or helpful response with a "+1" or whatever it may be but we can leave out the "-1" part and leave the report feature for those deserving of a "-1".
I would give your post a -1, but you're telling me I should report you for it instead.

Can you see how that idea falls flat?
The "ignore" feature...obviously. Such a good thread.
-1 again.

Neither of you are seeing my point. I'm disagreeing with what you're both saying, yet you tell me I should either report or ignore you instead.

That's the kind of stuff you should be concerned about since it's a discussion-killer.
What you're currently doing is just fine. You're making a post voicing your opposition. Surely a post has more discussion value than a +1 or -1?
I think the idea of the OP was to combat people who just quote someone and say "this" but I haven't really noticed many people who quote someone and just say "no".

As long as it only affects the post and not the user recieving or giving it I wouldn't mind.


Yes, if it doesn't add to the giver/receiver then that would be good. I also think the "Up-vote Emblem Customiser" thingymajig should have a selection of Bungie-related logos to choose from. That gives variety and choice while still keeping things tidy! And before anyone says halo isn't bungie's anymore; they created it and that's why it's in there. So what do you think of the logos idea?

I don't know about that idea of "Approvals" bumping a thread. Let's say I let this thread get to the second page of the Community Forum, and then I "Approve" a post on the second page, thus bumping it for no reason.

Necrobumps would go unpunished as "Approvals" certainly wouldn't have dates on them ("CrazzySnipe55 approved this post." is a lot less cumbersome than "CrazzySnipe55 approved this post at 7:42 PM, PDT on July 15, 2012."), and even if they had dates asking Mods to search through pages upon pages of a thread (in some cases) would be silly and unrealistic. And if we don't prosecute necrobumpers like that (as it would probably become the preferred medium through which to do so as it is less intrusive and harder to get caught doing such), then we can't really prosecute those who necrobump. And spamming a thread with likes just to bump it would be one more thing we could no longer prosecute one entire area of rulebreakers.

I know it's an "it could be abused" argument, but I think it's a fairly realistic one to make, given the circumstances.

So what do you think of the logos idea?
I think we should stick to the Destiny Logo and the Septagon, to be perfectly honest. Sure, it creates a sort of Horde V.S. Alliance dichotomy in that people will be somewhat divided by which one they choose, but it keeps things simpler while still allowing the average forumgoer one more choice to make.

Edit: the amount of people who read the thread topic and the first section and didn't read the actual idea itself is depressing to say the least.

I don't see a problem with a +/- number next to a post. I do think it would be a great addition to threads to show who agrees and who doesn't. And with the forum layout it could work better than some might think.

A good example of the +1/-1 concept would have to be on Roosterteeth's forums. If you like a post, then "+1, if not then you don't need to do anything, and if you dislike it then give it a "-1".

Side note: On Roosterteeth's forums, they have "+1" system but also on different criteria like "funny", "zing", "cool" and "ditto". I'm not saying it should be that complicated, I'm just saying it's kind of a cool idea if you really want to be specific about why you like (or dislike) a post.

But what some sites do (which I think is a step in the wrong direction) is when a post gets too many "-1"s, it becomes hidden.

The problem with this is that when someone diagrees, they might just think "I'm right you're wrong and stupid so I give you a -1". That's the wrong way to look at it.

If you want to "-1" someones post then so be it, but just becuase someone had a different opinion doesn't mean their post should be hidden.(Which is why we are fortunate enough to have the report button feature).

If they were to intergrate the system I don't really see a negative impact. It could just be a number by the post that says whether or not people agree or disagree.

Neither do I. Other than people's blind assumptions that Bungie.net will turn into some other website (which is, comparatively worse than BNet according to "people") or any other manner of Bungie.net fortune telling where they somehow know exactly how the implementation of any given feature is going to impact the community at large.

I remember when I used this space to put cool looking links to my chapters back in the day. I don't even know why I'm using it now. Why are you even reading this? You must be interested in me. Still reading?

That is why ideas people come up with never make it past just being an idea. There are always gonna be people, like yourself, who have to disagree and want to "-1" everything.

Some people just want to watch the world burn.

Oh, and I wasn't entirely serious about my "ignore" feature proposal.

I'll agree with this. We don't want Bungie.net to be League of Legends forum.

Why do you feel that you need to give a negative score to a post you just don't agree with. Wouldn't it be more constructive to give reasons as to why you don't agree with the person instead of doing what you're doing right now?

Edit: I actually like this idea, it can show more posts without pushing the thread back to the point where most discussion about the original topics are dead.

Also, the ignore feature needs to come packaged with it.
