Here I Go Again...

Suggestion #679,352:

People who vote 1's on a regular basis should lose their voting priveledges. The jealousy on this site is getting stifling and there are a few people who are known downvoters who dont deserve the right.

lol, it may seem that way, but I also think that this is the right thing, no one deserves to get downvoted and because of how the site works it is not only a priveledge, but a responsibility.

People who prove that they arent worthy should not have the option, simple.

Good idea...

BUT

sooner or later almost every poet on this site will have lost their priveledges to vote...

Then only the people who don't care about votes will be left with that right...

A better suggestion would be to rid ourselves of this voting system...

I agree with Nobody. The voting system all together should go. A poem shouldn't be judged by its vote.

I disagree that the voting system should be abolished, but it could be improved upon, just because then there is no way for poets to rise to the top or glance at the lists of hundreds of poems and know what's shit and what's generally good.

I dont think that everyone would eventually lose their priveledges, just the people who vote irregularly large numbers of ones... I have NEVER voted a one. I dont think that many people have, I would hope not.

I think I have voted one one or two times... but trust me... the poems were horrible. I don't even remember what they were, but I think they weren't even a type of poetry.

I think that some poets vote 5's just to recieve the same high vote back, and if one votes low... then some people down vote.

Some comments are useless, yes, but the only person who needs to read the comments are the person who wrote the poem. They should be able to figure out the good from bad.

Sorry if I make little sense, I don't think my brain is awake right now :-)

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Couldnt help it, it was f****** funny.
