Thanks Stskeeps, that's good feedback and hopefully helpful.

From your response I get the idea that the "thumbs up - thumbs down" voting is too simplistic. What looks like abuse may be disinterest.

However, I would counter that disinterest should be represented by no vote at all, especially given the binary nature of the feedback system *.

Going forward, I wonder if we could move Maemo to a better richer post ranking system...

EDIT: I'd like to see something like Youtube's system, where you have both a multi-star rating combined with a Favorites setting.

*EDIT: I was wrong. The system is NOT binary, but trinary. The Null state is still a state. Recognizing that validates my original complaint that the "thumbs down" appears to be abused.
