I disagree. It's a bug that is not a bug, and deserves to be voted down so it becomes ranked less than the possibly real bugs that have no votes either way.
It's a vote of whether the feedback entry is worthy of attention, not to make someone feel good or bad, and has no reflection on the person making the feedback. It would get the same vote from me even if it were posted anonymously.
Perhaps you need to be a little less sensitive, and not take these things personally.
I can see that you might do well in a foreign culture and luckily most of us do not require your lack of sensitivity in order to engage in communication. What I do see is vengeance and dislike at minimum without a desire to fashion a statement to fit the question.
Bug or no bug, a written reply engages both parties to solving a problem which in proper circumstances would lead to the question being resolved much faster and with far more decent results then your methods would create.
You can see it however you like, as lack of sensitivity, or vengeance(?) or dislike, or whatever other blather you care to apply.
However, my voting up or down is simply a means of ranking the feedback submission. Either it's worthy of action, or not.
We should then also identify people voting for.
Imagine a big group asking its members to vote for or against a proposition?
With anonymity, the people vote what they really think, without any social control.
I prefer an anonymous voting for a kind of independent and real synthesized opinion (it's not really question of democracy here I think: we suggest and the researchers do what they feel is good for their project).
For this reasons (and also because it's funny to vote against the possibility to vote against, or to use my right for the last time?): I vote against (at least, that's what I whrite, you'll never know).
:o)
Thank you bruno, I like your response and on that note, am closing this thread. Nice to see someone with a sense of humor.
