Description Stuart Jarvis 2010-06-09 13:16:13 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.4.3) 
OS:                Linux

=Hide poll scores=
- A voter may be led (consciously or not) by the opinions already expressed by others. The current poll score is the first thing a voter sees and so may bias opinion before viewing the proposal
- Hide current poll score pre-vote
- Ideally show after voting for transparency/nosiness
- May also be used for brainstorm proposals

=Disable Negative Voting=
For polls where the aim is to choose the best solution (and all solutions are 'positive') such as the KDE Software Label design poll.
- Negative voting makes little sense in a poll where all options add value
- Negative voting may give a bad impression to someone whose design receives an overall negative vote and may discourage future contributions
- Probably not for brainstorm proposals (where an idea may actually be negative for most people)
