    Neat.

    I’m also seeing numbers next to some people’s name. It looks like its tracking net “karma” for the user? But its obviously not accurate (you have a [+4] as of writing).

    Is that related to tagging?

      That number should be how the total of upvotes and downvotes you have personally given that user. Useful for finding who to block when you see a troll comment and realize that nearly every comment you’ve seen from that user has been a waste of your time.

        I feel triggered by this entire sub-chat. My comments are half flippant, half heckle, half earnest and actual, half pedantic, half questioning, and no math (clearly).

        Point is, I’m gonna offend people and their judgement will be sticky. What if my first impression is for a dickish reminder about mass nouns or a jab against the GqP? I love this part.

        Please tell me there’s a tag that says “80% horseshit but occasionally a mild zinger or honest comment” to put up near my name. We all can’t be consistently awesome like FlyingSquid !

        User tagging was what I was waiting for to try Voyager again (I prefer tagging users over blocking them), but per-user vote tracking was the killer feature I wanted an app to have.

        I guess this is goodbye, Boost. Time to write a user tag import script!

      Yep! But if you’d like to disable it just go to Settings > User Tags > and toggle off “Track Votes”
