Then, yuku did away with this feature, I don't know for sure why. Even though, I received a few negative votes myself, I didn't mind them at all. After all, nobody is perfect, no? Anyway... I don't know why the poll question is cut off. So here's the whole question: Would you like to see the "negative kudos" reinstated? ...would you like to see the (Result) Yes. No. I don't care.

That's exactly what happened here a couple of years ago, and it's exactly why so many people complained so loudly about them.

I have no problem with giving a kudo to a profile that has a cool avatar or theme & absolutely no problem with kudoing a topic I agree with or like. But I saw what went on the first time around with people wanting to be jerks & using the negative kudo & was very glad to see it removed.

Posts: 2498 21-Mar-08 6:21 PM munificent member I felt so automated	I really didn't care for bad votes, especially since you couldn't change your vote. But sometimes, I wish I could see how many people hated me. Since no one leaves bad comments for me (and if they did... I wouldn't approve them )... sometimes, I do miss bad votes.... just not often.
