Are you going to reply to me and tell me it is not BS that I can take the time to write something on these boards and have it drop off the face of the earth form one down vote?

I have it in the view that makes threads that are REPLIED to jump to the top. I don't care about downvotes.

Let me tell you a story. "A post was made. The first person who viewed it down votes it. The End."

Your thoughts are correct but irrelevant because it only takes a single click to kill a thread.

Or are you making a suggestion. Your reply is kind of unclear....

Click the "new" or "recent" buttons at the top under the big "Boards" and you won't have to worry about downvotes again. I do this on the reddit pages I look at, too.

What you SHOULD be lobbying for is for this to be the default behavior, so people new to the boards don't have this complaint.

Good advice. Your right, that should be the default.

I also keep this view... do most people not?

Newcomers to Boards certainly do not, and I think plenty of people don't realize it's even an option.

This thread has 3 Downvotes. It isn't gone. It's at the top. -_-

I agree, early downvotes are a problem. Imo, there should be done kind of system where threads have protection from early downvotes (or even, have downvotes in the first hour give more visibility -- after all, it means someone cares about the thread, even if they don't like it.).

That being said, I think the voting system as a whole is fine, just needs some tweaks.

No matter what you do riot simply won't listen. You need to bait them in with: 1000 normal wins LF rioter to play with, Because we all know these moderators would rather do anything than actually post on an issue.

who has dumped a lot of money in this game

This does not matter in the slightest. It undermines your entire argument to be suggesting that the amount of money you have used to buy content has any bearing on forum behavior.

From one down vote

To my knowledge, this is being looked into. That being said, a lot of the really active Boards users tend more towards using Recent sorting (a la old GD) rather than Hot as the default. A single downvote does nothing in Recent, and I like being able to see all activity that happens.

"I'm A Long time user who has dumped a lot of money in this game."..... welcome to the club. I'm just saying if my drug dealer gave me anywhere near the service riot is. He would be bankrupt.
