cleverpun Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 I think the presence of the vote buttons on the main page and list views in the voting section encourages people to vote without examining a suggestion. We should remove those buttons; that way people have to actually click on a suggestion to vote on it. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jymotion Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 will present a minor inconvenience when downvoting suggestions that are clearly bad from the preview, but I could see this being an overall improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teeird Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 This still won't stop the people who don't read anything and vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duscoda Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 This still won't stop the people who don't read anything and vote. It would atleast reduce the amount that blindly vote to some extent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santa Heavy Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 It would also stop people who are biased who only vote on star color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuffRyders Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 This wont help at all. It will be only more annoying to downvote suggestions without proof Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jymotion Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 It would also stop people who are biased who only vote on star color. removing the star from the front page was brought up here as well - http://forums.backpack.tf/index.php?/topic/389-removing-colored-stars-from-the-voting-page/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 · Hidden by Chief D, May 2, 2013 - Spam. Hidden by Chief D, May 2, 2013 - Spam. This still won't stop the people who don't read anything and vote. It also won't stop sharks like you. Link to comment

Slocumruls Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 A. Don't put the Suggested prices on the main Page. Just the Newly Accepted Values. B. Make people open the suggestion thread to actually read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woifi The Viking Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 You have to open a suggestion to vote for it. This will decrease the numbers of "stupid votes" for sure. Or at least I hope so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperMar1o Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I like this idea. Will cause a lot less impulse votes. I admit impulse voting as well from time to time and this would deff stop it xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatOtherChigga #Mack Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Damnit....now i can't go to all the Blue stars and upvote everything... y u do dis what he said ^ But yeah, there should also be a time limit you have to stay on the page so people will actually READ the proof, not just open the page and then vote within a second or two.

And a "I have read the proof and I'm accepting it" thing when voting it up? It shouldn't be too complicated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shouldn't be too complicated.Well there should at least be a time-limit on currency suggestions. Thus forcing people to actually look through the comments and see if there is an abundance of proof/counter-proof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
