    Hello, 1) I was thinking of a possibility (or a must maybe) to give a comment on a vote. This could prevent the useless lines on the forum like: "Do not double post!" "Don't ask for homework!" "Have you googled?" An other advantage is (if it is a must from lets say a vote from 1 to 3) that you get a feedback, why you got downvoted. (I see that very often that a question or even an answer got downvoted for no special reason. That sucks!) There would be the question of anonymity, which should be answered from the CP members, in the forums I guess. 2) I think a possibility to mark a question as "sufficient answered" would also be interesting. This flag can only be set from the one who posted the question (of course). Maybe a way to mark this line would be a modifide "?" symbol! All the best, Martin

      Did you mean a textual comment on vote that is being applied to a message?

          Repost x 1000. :doh: Rejected every time on the assumption that the 1vote idiots would consistently enter "asdf" for the comment.

            Not if it is not anonym any more! -- modified at 11:21 Wednesday 20th June, 2007 But apart from that, I personally would know how serious this vote is. And that's the main point for me. I would like to learn here on the forum, that's one reason why I'm answering questions here. If I make a silly answer and get a '1' vote for that I would like to know why. If there is a comment like you discriped, I don't give a .... on it!

              you can argue with Chris when he's back from vacation but he's been remarkably unwilling to budge from his current position on the subject.
