Re: Re: Voting buttons - need zero/reset

It's not wasted, but it is easy to lose sight of the fact that the XP system can be used (dare I say intended?) to recognize well-written, informative, and useful nodes as opposed to (merely) a kudos for the node author.

immediate UPDATE: Of course voting ++ on an AM could still be viewed as kudos for the author (if you wish); you simply don't know whom; as long as the author remembers the node and follows the thread.

-- perl -pe "s/\b;([st])/'\1/mg"

Don't forget this part of the original post though... The same is true when I find a more accurate or informative reply farther down on the list that I think deserves my vote more. This has happened to me a couple times, and I've also wished for the "Clear" button. MungeMeister	[reply]

Well there is a solution to that too (if you have say only 2 votes, used them and one is AM and find another)... Open the 3rd node to vote in another window Vote for this node Submit the v0tes in the main window, you are down ny one and the only the node at the top will get a vote. (If that happens to be the AM, then repeat first 2 steps for the other node you wish to vote) Not exactly pretty, but ti works, and you don't have to remember who you voted for. `-- perl -pe "s/\b;([st])/'\1/mg"`	[reply]
