2. So, only the positives show up. You can't see how disliked a thread
is, only that at least half of the recs were unrecs.

I like that we don't have to go through the "Are you sure..." page.

At any rate...good for Skinner and the mods for testing, no?

10. i don't like this new feature

Most of us don't have time to read every single post. We go to the "Greatest" page to see what other DU'ers have recommended for us. I really like that feature.

But by adding an "unrecommend" button, controversial subjects will never make it to the "Greatest" page because + and - recs would zero them out. I want to read what some DU'ers believe are important posts, whether or not i agree with it.
