M$Drmatt, if you're asking me if I'm hinting... no not at all. I think you're awesome. Actually, I think everyone here is great.
It would be interesting for everyone to be able to see the patterns that have existed in the past. I don't know for sure that some of my answers have purposefully been voted down, but I think they have. Be nice to know that I'm not some sort of paranoid freak... but I'll rest easy knowing that votes can finally be seen.
@robbrown *blinks* A man who tells a woman she's right... I'm a combination of thrilled and speechless. Thanks for the smile you put on my face with that!
I don't think that you should give amnesty.
If folks have been doing this, they should be outed.
You know that's a good way to look at it Angilla.
I think I'm a convert after thinking about it in your shoes. You're right.
@robbrown No, not you hinting.
@jasoncalacanis said "hint hint" and was wondering if JC thought I was doing something unsavory with voting. Just looking for some clear communication.
Are you hinting at me? Or was that just a general "hint"?
Mreh, I'm glad they're giving the amnesty... let the people who have done this in the past get their chance to say "oh #@$!" and change their ways before they're thrown out to be flogged in public.
well, it would be more interesting if we didn't give amnesty for past votes I can tell you that!!! (we can see the voting patterns already.... hint hint!).
Am I correct in assuming Best Answer votes will remain private, because the answerers are hidden?

Have you got any screenshot of what it might look like?

M$Many people seem to think that the transparency will prevent people from being vindictive because they will be outed, but I think there is a chance we are opening a whole new door to vindictiveness. Now that people will know who voted them as unhelpful they may be more likely to try and get back at them despite the fact that it will be public. I'd hate to think the worst in people, but I thought I'd mention this possible outcome.
I just love that Mahalo is always evolving and open to suggestions from its users.

M$I am surprised at how fearful people are of saying something that may offend someone else. If you believe it for a good reason and can say it politely and without anger, go for it!
By the way, the picture is from 30 Rock when "Tracy Jordan" suggested that blacks not vote. Obviously, I don't think any group of people should be excluded from voting, with the possible exception of those who don't bother to learn about the candidates. Similarly, don't vote down answers unless you have a good reason :)
