Hi,
Is it possible when a user rate a message or an article then that user must provide some comments that why he/she has rated on that position.

It would be nice, but I suspect that the idiots who 1 vote for the fun of it would just end up putting rubbish in.

This might help in reduction of Univoting.

You'll end up getting a lot of blank submissions if it's mandatory.

Requiring a comment achieves nothing.
I just rated you a 1.

When I suggested this, and chris brought up the same issue, I proposed a fuzzy logic system that would catch probably 50% of rubbish entries, and mark suspect ones. Rubbish entries ones would result in the 1 vote being disallowed, and after three disallowed 1 votes, would suspend the user from voting altogether for a predetermined period of time. Continued abuse of the system would remove the user's voting abilities altogether - forever. Suspect votes would allow the victim to request a review of the vote. If the voter posts a certain number of "suspect" votes, once again his voting privileges would be suspended, and continued abuse would eventually result in permanent revocation of his voting privileges.
This vote tracking would only be available for articles (and messages posted in articles). Granted, this system would require a lot of work to implement, and some time on the part of the site owners to admin (I suggested that platinum members be allowed to help out), but there are over 4 million registered members on the site, and something HAS to be done.

I believe that the solution you had provided is wonderful, but why are you considering that all these things should be implemented in a single step, instead of that this functionality can be implemented in step by step, and may be the first step would be make comments compulsory when a person rates the message.

Don't think so.

Hi Chris,
Where is the store located? I wanted to buy a t-shirt. No dice on the coffee mug - I'm an iced tea man.
Black t-shirt, with the green alien inside an orange aurora would look good.

We have an "average article rating" score at the top of the articles page in our profiles. Can we have a similar score at the top of the messages (latest comments) page as well?

I'm new to codeproject and one thing that I find difficult is figuring out what part of a forum post belongs to the message and what part belongs to the author's signature. While reading messages, I sometimes get confused with the last line of an author's response, since it seemingly has nothing to do with the question -- of course it's because it's her signature!
Something as simple as ------------ before the sig would suffice.
Thanks,
Phil

If you want ASCII instead of html, a proper sig dash is "-- ".

You have to explain to them [VB coders] what you mean by "typed". their first response is likely to be something like, "Of course my code is typed. Do you think i magically project it onto the screen with the power of my mind?" --- John Simmons / outlaw programmer

Well, either way it should be inserted automatically if a signature is present

Try hitting Ctrl+F5. It's subtle, but I don't want to interfere with dividers that members already use.

Subtle, yes. I like it.

You can distinguish my signature easily

Chris - the Univoter is at it again in the lounge.
Quick question - when a univoter is identified and removed, are their votes removed as well?

A drive by (or serial) 1 voter. Somebody who just votes 1 for fun.

There really are such ... around?
And Chris is able to identify them?
Again a good reason for me, for a non anonym rating system, like I suggested once!
