Neg kudos were originally introduced as a way for everyone to get in on the moderating action, and help shape the kind of posts people want to see on TFS.

Apparently it hasn't worked. Instead, it just led to a bunch of complaining about neg kudos, with little positive benefit as far as getting rid of trolls, etc.

Therefore, there is no longer a neg kudo option. Along with this, the number of daily kudos people will have has decreased to 10 since there is nothing to counteract the positives.

Enjoy your neg-kudo-free days

To be honest, this is pretty sad that we have to resort to this, i understand people not liking a neg kudo, but come on guys, grow up a little.




and haha, you can't neg this.

So there is no more dread of a negative
Isn't that a new and great prospective
I love to try and think always positive
Now there is a very definitive objective!

I really liked the neg system - I didn't use it much, but it was a way to register that a post was offensive.
I understand why it's been removed, but as someone who didn't abuse it, I am sorry it's gone.

It would be good to be able to provide some feedback in a month or two to see whether removing the neg system actually has worked for the better.

What should we do now if a post is offensive? report it?
I sense the mods will be a lot busier from now on.

actually I think you had something going on there for a while

I noticed after giving out a few neg kudos It started to take points away from me.

I think Negs should be worth two points and so on.. this will or should make point happy people a little more conscious about their negging abilities..

and of course if you don't have enough points then you can't neg..

just a thought.

Oh, so that's why that little "down thumb" is gone.

Now I don't have to try and give out 50 kudos a day.

Less work for Worpd makes me happy.

I'm sad as I used to love trying to give kudos away
It helped me find more friends as I travelled along
My true friends will always be with me, I know anyway
Even if you were to take all of my kudos away.

Well, I know why people liked having it. Unfortunately the complaints have just gotten to be too much. We get more "reported posts" to whine about negative kudos than anything else.

The taking points for neg kudos was still in place... it didn't really seem to deter the determined negger.

I say it's a great idea! Gives the negger the chance to come out into the open, and let the person know direct what the problem is..no more hiding! - Or whining!!!

Then, for the truly offensive, there's still the report button.
