Quoted from DarkWizard:

Kind of lost the elegance of the thumbs up/down box. I think your going in the wrong direction with that, its still good though. Also, if it stays how it is, it was nice that you could just click outside of it to close it and not have to click on a specific button to close it.
Just my 2 cents.

Yes, but now all the little morons that couldn't understand that thumbs up or down was =not= meant as "I hate your guts" or "I want to blow you" now have a more open system where the facebook-ism can be applied to mean whatever you want it to mean. Same deal with the tilt. What was a brilliant form of self-censorship, and a great pinball euphemism, has now been dumbed down and made "non-pinball-related" because a few dinks were too stupid to understand that OMG UR POSTS AREN'T CENSORED. It still has the functionality to have the system auto-hide a post for you when other people mark it as NSFW.

Now, we have two "new" systems, which are functionally *exactly the same* as the "old" systems, but with a few definitions changed around and some UI elements moved around..I don't get why all the effort placed into that, but hey, whatever floats your boats, I guess.

FWIW, the UI changes are much welcomed for me. Clicking outside of the up/down box never worked for me on Firefox, ever. I always had to manually click the close this popup link. I haven't browsed the marketplace yet, but read through the info post about the changes, and seems to be all good.

Quoted from ccotenj:

i can see both ways, i suppose... but it's not overly useful to me to see topics i don't post in any more float to the top of my activity list...

Especially if you're just following one person's recent posts....not the posts of everyone else responding to that one person.
