gus 1 #1 September 1, 2003 dz.com's popularity is a double edged sword - it's great to have so many people posting on so many posts but sometimes it gets difficult to wade through it all and find the useful information...... So, what about a Slashdot style rating system where registered users can rate a post (for example, this post would get a 5 for being awesome), then filter posts on a particular thread by their average rating. The thread is a prime example where it's difficult to keep up but you want to because certain posts might contain something important.

AggieDave 6 #2 September 1, 2003 That's a cool idea, but how would you be able to impliment it in the "real" threads like G&R or Swooping but keep it from effecting the BS threads like Talkback? I think we, as a community, are handling the ability to decide who to take info from and who to ignore, but that would be an interesting idea. I bet with the current forum setup, that would be a lot of work for HH to impliment, though...--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

gus 1 #3 September 2, 2003 I know that the 'real' forums are supposed to be free of 'chatter' but in reality at least a bit (and sometimes alot) seems to creep in. You're probably right about it being alot of work for HH to implement but it's not like he has anything else to do . GusOutpatientsOnline.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
