order captions by upvotes, and display # of upvotes, downvotes and total score on each caption, to reduce downvoting

Chris Phillips 12 years ago 0
People downvote everyone else so that their comment bubbles to the top. So, instead of ordering captions by their total score, instead they could be ordered by the number of upvotes they received. That way, the only way someone could influence the order that the captions are in would be to upvote captions.

Each caption would still display the number of upvotes, downvotes, and total score it's received, and if the total score is negative, then they can still be put into the 'bad comments' section (and of course people's overall reputation will still take downvotes into account) - so downvoting would still serve a purpose.

This way, captions that receive a lot of praise get to the top, and not just captions that get the least downvotes. As the image gets older and the number of votes the captions receive goes from 10s to 1000s, it seems people start mindlessly upvoting captions at the top of the list and downvoting captions that are at the bottom without reading them, so it's important to get the balance right at the start when an image is new and most of the captions only have a few votes each.

Downvoters

am111 12 years ago updated by Sarah 12 years ago 2
Recently users of the Gallery have been abusing the voting system to try and achieve the top comment. It seems there is a minority of users that will downvote all other comments to give their comment a more prominent position. One idea to combat this was to limit the number of downvotes a user has per image.

Can imgur add an option "PayPal checkout" to go pro ?

Can imgur add an option "PayPal checkout" to go pro ?

"PayPal subscribe" is not suitable for users who have not a credit card, I am the one.

Thank you for your consideration.

Answer

The pro subscription is a yearly recurring credit card charge, so you must have a credit card on file. We are working on other ways, but for now Pay Pal is the only option.

Middle clicking on links on front page opens upload dialog

Jon Bergli Heier 11 years ago 0

When I browse the front page I prefer middle-clicking on images to open them in new tabs. Since the last update (where the gallery was moved to the front page) this also opens up the upload dialog, which forces me to middle click twice per image (to close the dialog). This happens for any link on the front page when using Google Chrome (25.0.1323.1 dev). With Firefox 16 I don't seem to get the upload dialog at all.

Upvotes not staying

notmyname 12 years ago updated by Sarah 12 years ago 0

 Every single upvote I give does not stay. I've tried clearing my cache, giving upvote then refreshing (gone), giving upvote then waiting a minute before viewing the next pic and returning (gone), tried several upvotes on an image's comments (all gone when I return), tried only one or two upvotes on an image's comments (gone when I return or refresh)... The ONLY time I can get an upvote to stick is to upvote and refresh and repeat until it stays. This is getting tiresome. Tried Chrome, but I can't test there since I can't log in via FB.

It takes 10ish seconds for a vote to register after its been given.
