Maybe this has been discussed ... or is written somewhere .. I just have not seen it anywhere.

I have contributed some scans and in some of them when going to the voting page ... I see 2 arrows in there for rating the person who has voted.

1st ... Why is it only some people have that after their name?

2nd ... Is it something I should be doing?

It's the new reputation system, you can rate the votes (or better the reason the user gave for his/her vote).
Quote:

Perhaps the other votes were given too early to be rated.
Quote:

If you see a very good reason (like "oh I haven't thought about it"), vote green.
If you see a very dumb vote (like "x" ), vote red...

You don't have to vote on all votes (or at all), just the very good and the very bad ones.

PS: The System was introduced here.

At number one: None of the current voters on my submissions have any icons for rating - also, none of them have been active on the forums! So I'll guess that the people that has no icons doesn't have any forum posts either...

At number two: Well, I guess that I will only be using it if people type helpful comments - or, of course, if they type crap when giving negatives...

Voting on Contributions is also some kind of activity. But the system is very new, perhaps we should ask Ken.

You can only give a reputation vote on a vote that contains a comment. That's why only certain votes have the reputation arrows.

I just noticed that, so now in my Reputation page, it says
Quote:
In the last 30 days, 1 forum post/contribution note has received reputation feedback.

Ten to one that that answers your question: If you check the votes again, I'll bet that only those who actually left a comment has the arrows!

Also note that the 48-hour rule probably also applies to vote-comments...

Seems odd that you are only allowed 5 votes per day

Not really... As I understand it, you are actually allowed to give all five votes to the same person - and perhaps even the same post?

Consider this: What if somebody had two paid accounts, and one of them got 50 or so negative points. If there was no limit, he/she could use the other account to give himself 100 positive votes...

I just looked in my reputation page and I had 1 vote too ... positive 

I had actually voted NO to a submission but did give what I believed was a valid reason and apparently the submittor thought so too. I think I am going to like this system. Will keep the badgering to a minimum ...

Is it a Premium thing? Otherwise it would be possible to spam reputation votes...
And as I said, it's only for the best / worst posts.

You can give them all to the same user, but you can only vote once per post.

Is the reputation thing just a private thing? I do not see anything in a post that indicates anything.
