Is it possible for DU to enable thumbs up or down on individual posts?
   
Sort of like other websites?

I only ask because on occasion there is a OP about a great thing, or lousy thing, and the obligatory put down posts appear on that thread. This happens within all spectrum's of the left, center and right.

Sometimes going +1 or +100 is nice but wouldn't it be better just to click a symbol that denotes approval or dismissal?

Can this be done and if so is there a reason why it is not?

Thanks!

Ohh please, please, please, do that $kimmer. The entertainment value will be off the charts. Just think of all the whining and crying of unrec.  :rotf:

1. Won't happen on this DU...
   
but maybe on DU3.

Post your question in ATA and one of the admins will give you an answer.

When in the hell is DU3 coming out anyway? Peter Gabriel takes less time to finish an album than (he takes years to finish an album for those who don't get that) $kinner has taken to kick off DU3.

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

Can you imagine?  The whining would be heard in outer space!  ATA would have to close up shop.  Skins would never do that to himself.

Skins is only $10 away from releasing the primitives to play on DU3.  Or 1000 donations, whichever comes last.
