I'm all for a voting system, but if those votes have consequences, then I agree voting should be regulated to avoid large groups forcing their viewpoints on others. Also, if votes come with consequences besides that of people seeing your vote counts then I wouldn't call it speech.

Well, that's a UI concern that I guess is worth arguing about. But there are plenty of other UI problems on Poal that none of these concerned new users are addressing, which leads me to believe what they really want is a feature change.

Currently an upvote moves a post up. A downvote doesn't move a post down. The people who have a problem with the inconsistency I'm guessing would rather have the downvote's function changed than have it removed or have the UI changed in some other way.
