Do you think I could just leave this part blank and it'd be okay? We're just going to replace the whole thing with a header image anyway, right?

Re: Add the Option to Downwoot Posts

I think saying you disagree with someone without explaining why is kinda rude on a forum, so downwooting without explanation is also rude. So there is basically no purpose to downwoots apart from keeping a count of how many people disagree with something. But I'm not sure keeping count of that is even useful or productive in most cases.

Maybe a better idea is to have polls for situations where you might want a counter. I remember we had them on fail forums, so I'm sure Diff can add them here too.
