    [Hermit] Game over

    [Jake] While I find this interesting feedback, it really strikes me as rule by incestuous polling. Have we mistaken a useful feedback mechanism for an appropriate control mechanism? Important issues of Virian Doctrine deserve better consideration.

    This voting/reputation system is an appropriate feedback mechanism, but not appropriate for control. 15.53 (25.19%)
    This voting/reputation system is an appropriate feedback and control mechanism 37.85 (61.41%)
    This voting/reputation system is not appropriate for either feedback or control. 1.77 (2.87%)
    Other (please explain on Virus 2003 email list.) 6.49 (10.53%)

    decisiveness (22.33%)
    unvoted equity (38.36%)
    voted equity (61.64%)

    [hr]

    Overwhelming conclusion is that, "This voting/reputation system is an appropriate feedback and control mechanism"

    I guess that tells us we are doing the right thing...

    Thanks.

    Now go and read the wiki :-)

    PS Incest is what you are doing when you are experiencing relative humidity. It can be fun. But avoid progeny. It tends to result in the expression of harmful recessives.
