Just a crazy idea...Follow

Could you make it where people would have to post on a thread before they could rate on it?

Im so sick of stupid kids just playing with the pretty button:

I'm not even complaining about being scored, it's just the fact that people are too afraid to even post their thoughts in a thread and just use the rate button. This thread is a shining example of it. All I have ever asked is for people to just step up and stand by how they rate be it good or bad. But this "Silent All Knowing Jack of ***" mentality should be pu to an end.

Thank you for your consideration.

*Notice I am putting a thread up where my karma actually went up from it... Again, this is not a complaint about karma, but rather the endless throng of balless scholars who dont deserve to slow the server down with their stupid effin rate button.

I'd rather see BS posters gone than BS threads... BS threads are inevitable, people can be delt with.

Telling people how to post, what to post, who can post, etc. does tend to draw in a lot of ratings. Threads like that rile people up all over the scale.


Interesting idea, but I don't think that feature would fly.

"Bumping to rate down" -- isn't that an oxymoron of some sort?

Wouldn't forcing them to post only make us hate them more?

bask away, dumbass.
