This is useful in cases of Off-Topic. I guarantee you that in development specific sub-forums this "dislike" function will barely be used
The problem is we have at least that many who vote down on more of a personal vendetta basis than anything helpful or meaningful to the community. The threshold needs to be higher.... I just don't know how high.
