Unchecked, I can see it devolving pretty quickly into a childish thumbs down war. Not that I think that will happen here. At least, with the current climate of mostly former MMOTalers.
Besides, knowing someone could e-embarrass you by thumbs downing a simple comment you made is not very conducive to free conversation. Imagine if you had to go through life knowing someone could *thumbs down* everything little thing you said.
