The fact that you need to click on a post to upvote/downvote seems like a waste of time to me and it is really discouraging me from visiting the boards. It was the major factor why I left EU boards, but now that this is here, I guess I'll be less involved in them, I will occasionally check the "Hot" page but that's just about it...
Well surely you would be better to read a post before you up or down vote it
The reason was to stop people from downvoting threads without even reading them causing many to get lost in the sauce simply because they didn't like the title or poster. By having to go into a thread (like on the old forums) more effort is required which means many mindless downvotes are not given as often.
We can definitely take this feedback into consideration.
At least we still see the voting numbers unlike on the EU boards... [slayer-jinx-unamused]
I really don't get this. Like, are two clicks really that inconvenient?
Yeah new voting format sucks
