moonbus ran a poll on a Site Ideas thread and an overwhelming majority voted to remove anonymity from thumbs. So be it. Let's hope Russ acts upon what moonbus has established as being the consensus.

I have thumbed you up; I hope you enjoy the “consequences” of that and the accompanying, hidden [almost] anonymous “feedback” that goes with it.

No doubt Suzianne will be along shortly to thumb down your post, my posts and all subsequent posts by us, deny thumbing them down to enjoy the anonymity but still pour public scorn on one or both of us about your destroying of the website (and all other social media websites) and me paying Russ for votes in Moonbus’ poll.

That would be great!

Then you and fmf wouldn't be able to deny thumbing down my posts.

I doubt it will happen as that is the whole idea behind the thumbs anonymity.

Most of the people who actually post in the Forums would have to have been involved in the poll for the poll to be an accurate one.

EDIT: If it is the Poll I think you're talking about only 8 people have voted. How does that make it an established consensus among all posters? I believe we have more than 8 people who Post.

You’ll have to ask Moonbus when he arrives.

The supporters of the status quo have had their chance.

A typical well-thumbed post might have 4, 5, 6 or 7 thumbs up/down. So around 8 voters sounds fair enough

If you don't use them what does it matter to you? Is it because you get too many of them and think 8 votes make a consensus of the majority?

I'd love to see if your name shows up in any of my "Did you know" threads. 🙂

The fact that the site would be better without them matters to me.

It is not all about YOU want fmf. It is about what the majority of the site posters want, and we may be forgetting those who read them and never post.
