Slashdot.org has something like this, and it works well for me: Registered users can mark another user as a friend, or a foe. Messages from my "friends" are sent to the top of the pile, and messages from my "foes" are sent to the bottom of the pile. My list of friends and foes is public knowledge available to anyone viewing my profile. I can also see those that have marked me as a friend or a foe.

There is no reason why being able to see who voted is forbidden. It would stop a lot of the spurious voting.

For forum ratings it would cause horrible flame wars (hey you, why did you vote me "1" !) X| But for article ratings it would be very helpful. If I knew who rated my article as "poor", I could ask him what is wrong with it. Usually people are too lazy to post a comment after reading two pages of text and find it is crap, so they rate the article "poor" - and I don't know what exactly they mean, so I can't correct the article. :confused:

Let the system allow the user to poll, only after the user posts a comment. There is nothing new under the sun,
But there are lots of old things we don't know.

- Ambrose BierceWhat i mean to say that, if you force someone to post a reply when he votes, these kinda nonsence replies will be there instead of constructive critisiism. And ppl who really wants to give a constructive critisism do give one.
