It would use the honor system, which by looking at Youtube does not work at all. Fanboyism would take over and entire threads would be unseeable.

No fanboyism would come into play.

It would for me at times. All the Sony posts would be nonexistent. MUAHAHAHAHA



You just have to overlook it if you don't want to get involved =/.



No interest in that whatsoever.

Yay, we Sony fanboys can minus all the Microsoft fools into submission muwahahaha. We'll sign a pact of neutrality with the Nintendo fanboys... for now.

Don't be ridiculous! We have to make a pact with Microsoft to take down Nintendo (because they outnumber us) and THEN turn on Microsoft!

Quick, minus any Microsoft fans who read that!

No, we must not forgive them for the shame and dishonour they have brought upon the House of Sony since 2006's E3. I'm appaled that you'll suggest you'll team up with scum, to throw away your honor, for the sake of winning. We have been the victim of betrayal by so many of our former allies, are you saying we should betray ourselves?!

Don't worry, once we defeat Microsoft, we can absorb their citizens, becoming the sole HD nation, and focus our attack on Nintendo, who have grown lax with their First Party Development. Our First Party Development has grown, and are creating ever more games to use in the war. If we can win a decisive battle early on, we can get the independent Third Parties on our sides. However, siding with Microsoft will only allow them to retain and strengthen their ties with the independents developers, while they benefit from Nintendo's demise.

So you propose a stealthy assault to take down Microsoft from the inside- remove a few key pillars and the tower collapses. Meanwhile, we absorb the doors and walls and windows and furniture into the Great Sony Nation, but it will retain this name. They will obey us out of fear, and because they require leadership.

But then Nintendo will feel threatened. They will declare war on us before we can on them. So we must go about this stealthily. With Nintendo we will have to destroy the entire tower, as there are simply too many people capable of leadership. Be careful, however, as they have some...extremely powerful allies.

This simple rating feature will not be sufficient. We must infiltrate the League of Moderators and eventually make our way into the Administrator Council. Only then can we assert our superiority over lesser nations.

Contact the Emperor at once! Do any know of his whereabouts?

I'd minus the hell out of Halo haters, even if they use good reasoning. This is why the idea won't work.

Sounds exactly like how it works on Slash Dot. Not really a fan of that myself.

When the community is as small as vgChartz's is, you tend to learn pretty quickly as far as what users make interesting or amusing posts and what users annoy you. This works against a +/- system though.

It'd be like making a website devoted to Vikings and Packers. Give that a +/- system and all the Packers fans will vote each other up while all the Vikings fans will vote each other up. Of course, they'll also be voting each other down. The more heavily divided the userbase is, the less useful a +/- system will be. As we see on a daily basis, vgChartz is quite divided.

In the end, I think such a system would be more trouble to implement than its worth.
