Give all accounts 1-point default votes. Or at least make the default agreement-votes 1-point, so agree-polls are accurate! (For those who don’t know, high-karma accounts get 2-point default vote)
This is not an argument for a change to strong-votes. I am just sad I lost my 1-point default vote and sad to realize this default inequity. Til there is poll functionality everyone needs a way to give a single vote. I might or might not care if we had polls, idk.
So my stance is that upvotes and downvotes should stay as they are, but agree and disagreevotes should count for 1 and maybe show strong votes differently. I would like to know what a pure 1 person 1 vote poll says on the point, in many cases.
Yes I like that idea too. I’d leave it up to the forum team to decide which is better (all default votes=1, or only default agreement-votes=1). I expect they’d choose that one. [I’m agree-voting your comment for that, other people can do so too]
Wow I’m really surprised at the disagrees here. Please see the upvotes (count em, 2) on this comment as evidence that I and others with high karma are literally unable to do a 1-point vote.

For me, the 2-vote rule is an anti-troll/brigader mechanic, so I’d need to see a good way to combat those threats first.
That is a good point for protecting upvote/downvote differentials
