Also, whatever happened to the idea of havng separate buttons for “agree” and “vote up”. I think this is an important distinction to make—it is very useful to know both:
1) which comments are agreed with, but not necessarily high-quality ways of arguing for them, and
2) which comments are disagreed with, but are regarded as articulate and worthy of response.
And IIRC, the voters in favor of separate buttons were coming out ahead.

They were, and it’s still in the design. No promises on when we’ll get to that, but we intend to get to that.
Thanks!
