Fun fact... the number one female fantasy when studied by Masters and Johnson... was a faceless male making his way to her bed in the middle of the night for sex.
Unlikely to happen, I think that'd dissuade people from participating. It's just generally too fundamental of a change... although I like the idea on the surface.
What we could do is give some non-identifying stats such as average account age, average karma, etc - then it'd at least be possible to spot posts that were upvoted or downvoted by a bunch of inactive bot accounts?
I've always liked the idea of needing to "spend" your useless internet points to vote. New accounts would have to actually participate in the site to be able to vote (or gain something like a few points a day), and users who participate a lot would rarely, if ever, run out of points.
This would be a VERY fundamental change, however, and I'm sure there would be too many drawbacks to such a system.
EDIT: feel free to continue down-voting a mere opinion when I already said it wouldn't work.
Disclosure: I'll downvote a good, but merely entertaining, comment to push a greater, factually relevant, comment to the top. I might be less inclined to do this if the votes weren't anonymous.
What I want to see if WHO upvotes and WHO downvotes.
Excuse me but where is your mask
I left it on your moms nightstand.
Not YOU OP. Just something I want to say to someone if they say it to me, lol.
You’re suppose to wear a mask during sex.

Nice. A your mom insult in 2020.
James? Is that you?
WHO and CDC both put out written guidelines saying YOU DON'T NEED A MASK IF YOU'RE HEALTHY AND NOT WORKING IN A HEALTHCARE SETTING

On slashdot, one only receives a limited number of voting points to give. I think that's a bit draconian.
But we could have a stat to see how many up or down votes we've issued.
A real spoil sport would have more down votes than up.

Ooooo like a gold-backed currency vs fiat!

Good karma = green bar. Bad karma = red bar. Similar to GLP.
sounds like a social credit score. I dont like it.
Only if it was based on something like the past 30 days worth of points to gauge participation like Antifederalist mentioned
