Replying to No more downvotes on content

Just to let you know that, after a ton of requests for this from members, we’ve just pushed out an experiment which takes away downvotes on all content items on the site. It's definitely only an experiment at this stage, but we think it is an excellent idea to try. You’ll still have the ability to downvote a comment or forum post into oblivion, but we’ve run the math and it seems like they weren’t being used correctly on Media Items.

In addition, we hope it will encourage more people to post and hope this will help new members get a more comfortable start to contributing to NS. Anyway, would love to hear what you guys think - but give it a chance for a few weeks and lets see how it goes!”
