a so called no-thanks which could start to fold up the offtopic comments made (obviously not deleting them and individual users should choose whether to see them or not)
No thanks! We don't have the numbers to work averages like Slashdot does, so it's just going to result in the fulfillment of personal vendettas and unpopular opinions getting buried, regardless of the validity of the content (ask ThoughtFix sometime about the rating of his blog posts on Planet).

Dealing with this sort of stuff is a moderator's job.
