There's zero point in it, it annoys most people on the site. It's not transparent at all, and trolls like to down vote everything. Seriously, just get rid of it.

Getting back to topic, i think the down arrows are fine and they serve a clear purpose.
I think the person should have the OPTION to make it public and give a reason, like a review of the post. But only if something needs to change, otherwise the way t is now is just fine.

This threads winners (people that i like more after reading):
Trae Black 
Lopati

This threads losers (people that i like less after reading):
JM
Bill

after bill started some **** and left afterwards, JM picked it up and kept it rolling. 
Chtulu is a push because i dont like his opinion, but i like the way he acts about it. So neutral, but meaninful.

I like the rep power system on forums better than the thumbs up/down system, but that's just me.

???  This is strange.  Went to bed and this was retired.  A futile 'retire down arrows' thread.

Wake up.  This is back.  A different thread.  A huge PM Barrie homage tribute.  With throw-up in mouth???  Huh?

This makes my threads look damn scholarly.  

This is what happens when alumni from 'Beyond Scared Straight' all converge in one site.

**** seems like i got some harsh words from @Bill.
i dont think i insulted you directly. i didn't call you any names nor will i ever.
maybe my opinions were harsh but i am definitely not a punk, i've been listening to dubstep recently.

Why are they allowed to call me the C_word, over and over, and my posts are removed when I fight back?

Their disrespect stays up and mine taken down?  What's up?

We have a female fan here and she has the guts to come out and admit it, and is challenged as to being a woman????  

This male locker room calls her ugly over and over and it's put up with???

Is this an MMA site or a male locker room?  Where is the even-handed Moderating?  Why is this ******** put up with???  Does this thread deserve to exist?  Oh, I forgot.  This is 'entertaining'.  This is 'fun'.  

Am I sucking the fun out of this thread?   If I come off as sounding angry, it's because this kind of thing should happen.  There is such a thing as some leeway, but this is just wrong.  Remember when this was an MMA site?
