I'm kinda curious what criteria or philosophy people use in choosing to applaud or smite someone?
Personally I try to go easy on the smites limiting them to those who post with personal attacks or vulgarity. There are times I'm tempted to smite someone who has such a polar opposite opinion from me, but as along as the discussion is kept productive and not personal I try to refrain.
Applauding for me is for people who make a particularly useful or insightful post or make me laugh.
Also, what would people thing about an "audit trail" for applauding and smiting, such that people have a level of accountability for their social interactions?
