    julian Yeah, I want to leave it on so that people can express what they don’t like from a Walton’s employee, a good way to get some negative feedback if it is needed from the community. Plus, a downvote isn’t a death notice or anything, I’d imagine I have more downvotes than all other users combined.

    Ill tell you what, do people really want it turned off? I just put it on the next podcast schedule, if we can generate a 90% stated desire for it to be turned off I will at least bring it up to Austin, in the end, this is your guys site as much as ours.

    Jonathon First, downvotes are no longer hidden from anyone. We know who downvoted us.

    I say either turn it off or have a second chance question if you really want to downvote . I think it would solve all the issues

                    Wait you guys can’t see who upvotes and downvotes, o just the downvote. Tex_77 I’m on your side with this one but it does feel like popular opinion is against us.

                        Jonathon I can see both, not sure why, but I can.

                        After looking at this issue, I think that you and Tex_77 are right; Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer…LOL

                          I’m not opposed to keeping the down vote. Sometime there may be something i would down vote, but that hasn’t happen yet.

                                Oh, I see!! Essentially a flagging process. I did have to report a spam post once. Definitely more forward and effective than a downvote but I see how it could be used by the admins

                                    It would maybe be nice to see who down voted, person could ask why? I don’t want it to turn into a bad thing top such a great site.

                                      PapaSop Yes. I can’t say that I knew 100% how things would evolve, but the goal was and is to grow to a point where there is constant activity, new topics, responses, etc. I want to see it where we have hundreds of new topics a day, and thousands of replies and responses. There are ways to control which categories and topics you receive notifications on and for only certain things to popup into your Unread section, so the goal here is to make things popular enough to fill anyone’s feed daily with tons of new content but allow it to be custom-tailored to just what a user specifically is more interested in. This platform (NodeBB) that we are using was definitely a lot more than we needed at the start, but we have and continue to grow into it, and add new features of our own, and it has the capability of supporting an even much bigger engagement rate than we have now. What we have could scale to support exponentially more than we do now, and the goal is to continue to grow to make it a larger platform while still providing a small feel and tailored content to everyone.
                                      Maybe we will do a recurring podcast segment on where we are headed, what’s coming up, and where we see the road leading further down the line.

                                        There are ways to control which categories and topics you receive notifications on and for only certain things to popup into your Unread section

                                        Austin Your statement below made me laugh out loud. You know for a fact that we all have major FOMO. We would miss the banter, the laughs, the suggestions for adult beverages. I have to read every subject (not every comment). BUT this beats watching TV

                                          I like the down vote but maybe have an “are you sure” check button. I’ve hit it a couple times because of the way I scroll.
