i am in favour. But only in the case where the vote reflects on the quality of the
argument and not the expressed opinion. Because what you get then is that
people who write with their cerebellum instead of their frontal lobes will
be shamed. if you look angry at people they say less BS.
but what we need is 3 options: like, dislike and rate the quality of the troll.

And more importantly, who is going to implement the function?

There already is a like/not like button. Do you really need like/dislike/neither? Would the ability to express log_2(3) = 1.58 bits of vote information rather than 1 bit help much? Maybe we need a rating between 0 and 10000 stars for extra precision.

Good posts can also be lost if many idiots downvote it ^^
The main problem is that many people do give opinion based posts, but you can never stop this.
I don't think this can really work to be honest

So forums turn into reddit style where shitty jokes are upvoted to top?

Community Moderation: Up/Downvote posts

https://github.com/FAForever/lobby/issues/48

In my opinion the forum is full of:
"useless opinion posts, without arguments"

GOOD POSTS ARE LOST !

Instead of moderate it and add rules we can try this:
https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=2095240

Upvote and Downvote posts.
Hide "downvoted" posts.

I know it is not a perfect solution, but maybe a little improvment.
