I already told bumblefoot all my problem but he does not have time.

Good luck!
About VD, I made numerous posts asking for transparency but none of the admins bothered even to respond. A little courtesy towards their users would have forced them to say why it was not possible, at least. But it’s DD, after all. You know what to expect or what not to expect.

Had a discussion with anthrax.ut couple of months ago. According to him it’s an ‘internal call’ which they wouldn’t like to change.

do not have any clue what really the discussion is about :=P , just wanted to let myself in (even if unwelcome)
to say → man ! DS i really admire your uncanny ability to recall (or is there a LastPass or whatever app fitted in your brain to do it)
i really admire your uncanny ability to recall and reproduce you own as also other’s previous relevant posts from around here for cross-referencing.
and am out !
[just got some ping from someone about discussions here, so i landed here. sorry i did not have anything of consequence to add, as i haven’t read through anything else here.]

any response ??
@Beinghuman please u help.
VD issue that i shared with u earlier.
What is the point in making it anonymous? Haters gonna vote down by simply selecting one reason or the other, say, invalid deal. As I said before, this feature was indeed available in the classic version but it was of no use because of what I stated here. They should make it public just like it is for positive voters. In fact, they should make it like the list of suggesters. Will make everyone think twice before voting for a post. But this is a forum of fake democracy just like our country is and there will be no transparency in any matter.

Just like the customer care parrots keep repeating it’s not their policy blah blah blah whenever they are at fault and do not want to admit it, right? He really thinks we are all uneducated fools.

HaHa… Don’t worry. It is still not sharp enough to cut through their arrogance.

we are discussing over it. And we will bring earlier feature back, where in one could see the reasons for vote down. But give us sometime for the same.

The point is that deal posters would get some idea why their deals get voted down so that they can avoid such issues. You must keep in mind that apart from a few “dime miners”, genuine deal posters never intentionally create a repost or post a bad deal. In their eyes, the deals they post are only golden “loots” ( ) so they fail to realize any problems with the deals posted by them.
As a result, they either feel badly offended or being targeted personally when they see negative votes. Having access to an anonymous summary of the reasons for which people voted their threads down will give them some idea of what is actually wrong. CC @bumblefoot @AtulTheDimer
P.S. Just to be clear, an anonymous summary will not prevent some people from trying to settle their personal grudges via negative votes; they will just select some random reason like they probably do now. However, an anonymous summary will not increase the hostility either. If anything, it will provide some transparency and solace to the deal/thread poster.

Sure. And what about second issue related to fpd? Please have a look. Almost 48 hrs passed

and then they lose interest in posting and stop posting any deals.They may participate in comments but no threads.

Some transparency to the forum and solace to the poster! Like the RTI Act, 2005!

This is real democracy. The majority of the users don’t care and are happy with the way things run around here, so why should anything change? Take a look at the topics in this section. You’ll find that only a select few have been ranting about issues whereas the rest simply turn a blind eye or stay mum to protect their image on the forum. They will like your comments, they will support you in karma logs but they will not utter a single word in the topics. We end up becoming the bad guys.
@dexter1989 HaHa… So true!
