Comment on Ask HN: Two sets of upvoting/downvoting buttons?parent

Comments

It is important that in a system where you have an interaction between groups with differing opinions that neither side has more influence over the rating (score?,metric?) in question. If I agree with a post I can perform the single action of upvoting; however, if I disagree I can downvote _and_ report. This leaves more power in the hands of those who disagree, and would almost certainly be abused.
