I thought that a ratio would've been more meaningful number than an absolute count. Say, do 2 positives mean that 100% of the responders liked the post, or do they mean that 55% liked it and 45% disliked it? Also, the total number of responders would've been informative, i.e., was it 2 or 20 members that reacted to the post? (All this is immaterial now.)

Fair enough, although anonymity would give more reliable data.

Right. And nothing in the breakdown into separate positive and negative counts implies non-anonymity.

BTW, from the beginning of this thread it was misunderstood that I was talking about responses to my posts. In fact, I was often curious about the responses to other posts.

You must get a few of them (neg-reps). It's a rite of passage. It's bound to happen if you clash with some nut here or there. I'd be concerned if I didn't get any.

Have you gotten yours? :)

Honestly, I don't remember.

I do remember other people being under neg-rep attack, and reporting accordingly. I know I've been protected when I was under fire for no other reason than disagreeing with someone. I like communities that are self-correcting to some extent. A judicious combination of refereeing and community awareness.
