Who knows how to tell who up or down voted a comment?
I've come across users who didn't know that you could see who voted for your comment. I always thought this was a really important part of the Sift experience, akin to glancing around the room to see who's nodding and who's frowning. Don't give it away until the poll ends.

i do, but it took me a long time to find out
you still haven't thanked me for mailing you the decoder ring. >> ^paul4dirt:

Hmmm. I've always considered it another form of passive-agression;Clicked-down without a response to one of my comments, I get a gauge on who has big brass balls, and who has little,mincy, faggot balls. I consider those who use it frequently, to be compulsive, lonely masturbators in their daily life., or simply haters.
Oh and by the way, you can tell who voted your comment up or down by holding two butter knives and shoving them into a wall socket,while standing in a puddle of water!!
Sorry schmawy,spilled the beans innit??
I stumbled across it by accident. Oh and you can see who up voted any comment.
Dammit Choggie! Now ev'ybody knows. I know you've always hated comment voting. That's your cross to bear for telling controversial truths. Any troll worth his salt wears them as ribbons.
I found out, but I had to learn C++ programming language first.
I like turtles.
There are more important polls to make, like the one for hobbling blankfist, so I chose discard.
Fuck turtles. Tortoises are better.>> ^blankfist:

* *quality in an almost but maybe meta way
Okay, so clearly everyone who reads /talk knows. How do we get this outside? *frontpage?
It's a rare comment that strikes me as both worthy of a downvote and intelligent or thoughtful enough to warrant a reply. They do happen, but far more often I downvote a comment because of its utter stupidity, blatant trolling, etc.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)
Sure why not- it's Friday here- this calls for some impulsiveness. To the *frontpage Siftbot - make haste!>> ^schmawy:

oh right. I don't think polls are frontpageable.
Siftbot has had a tendency recently of being awol on sift talks
I do, but I didn't figure it out until last week, and I've been here quite a while. So I voted no because it's not written anywhere (obvious).
Did the creator of this website just say, "Oh yeah, forgot we couldn't do that"?>> ^dag:

VideoSift is a boat with a very small rudder but lots of rowers- and the occasional new sail design hand-sewn by Lucky. >> ^thinker247:

The real question is, how do you tell who voted what in a poll?
^haha, Kymbos yes! I think it's important that we don't know. On a side note for the next VS release, it would be great if you could add this functionality to the voting arrows on the main listing, so you could see who voted without opening the post page itself.
Well, I guess if you don't know you can ask anybody, and these polls last a devilishly long time, 72 hours? That's like five days in siftime.
