Yes and I do not like it. :wink:

I think it's a system designed to degrade posters.

Posters can give each other + or - points. It's a terrible idea for a cohesive board.

but I must admit is a fun little activity on smaller boards where everyone pretty much knows everyone and can take the joke.

We have it on a board with a small group of posters I've been posting with for about 9-10 years now and enjoy throwing praise and little barbs at each other every once in a while. But we never have fights/flame wars, so it's not a problem.

Here it would be insanity.
