Comment Post #286026 If someone leaves a silly comment like "1rth3khadfghqr25" then they have done so in order to make a downvote so, that fulfils one aspect: downvoters are identifiable.

Comment Post #286026 Or maybe only allow a downvote if the downvoter has actually left a comment explaining what the errors or deficiencies are.

Comment Post #286026 If so, then they should appear lower down than answers that have been upvoted. I'm not saying answers can't be upvoted. Maybe also you could award some form of upvote to someone leaving a comment that points out an answer's poor quality or deficiencies? It would need thought.

Comment Post #286026 **how would you sort answers** - do you mean how would they appear in the list of answers under a question?

Answer A: General discussion on making votes public
Just get rid of downvoting on answers (not questions) and be done with all this squabbling. If an answer is bad, then a decent comment below it should warn people off believing the answer has any merit.

Comment Post #278234 This is a question and answer site - this is why folk come here. Reputation/scoring should be dominated by that fact. It sounds like what is being proposed appears to be missing the point or maybe I just don't understand what an abilities system is.

Comment Post #279560 https://electrical.codidact.com/questions/279585 - this question has got at least two answers missing but, if they will all catch-up at some point then no problem.... however, if you are going to rely exclusively on reports from folk like me to tell you what's missing then that's a problem. Please do...

Comment Post #276272 I can't see the TIFF image. For the others I see "Test image" in magenta/pink letters (not sure if that's what I'm supposed to see - maybe you should say "if you can read these words you can see the image")
