I never realized you were a moderator. I thought there was some kind of formal identification.

+1 Others forums use the like on a post basis, as opposed to user. And you can see the average 'likes' for a given user, which kind of gives you an indication on good/knowledgeable users. The other point to keep in mind is that when you like a post it should be public, it is useful to see who liked a post for many reasons.

Craig mentioned the issue in a post in the Admin Topics forum, to which it seems everyone with 1D X posting status has access, whether moderators or not (not sure that's the way it's supposed to be, someone will probably 'fix' that at some point...).

Canon Rumors said:
I very much like it without getting smitted. In everyday usage I never run accross the word smite. It seems like a hate crime. Of course I could never just say this if "smite" was around but I've tested it and tried making a 100% positive remark -- like "I'm sure Canon will be always be producing competitive products" and I was still getting smited. Appearently it looks like some people will smite for some kind of personal enjoyment. This forum would be much better served without it. If people feel that strong against something that has been said against a fellow photographer, then I feel they should be able to say it on the forum where their comments can also be responded to. Much like a letter to the editor, I may not agree with the point of the writer but I do want to hear and understand your point of view.
After all, if I only wanted my point of view, why participate in the forum at all. I do to share my knowledge in hopes of getting other photographers point of view.
I would like to see a spell check imbeded into the reply because my "raw" spelling is pretty bad and I know I'm not alone. It also would help to see a quick profile (thumbnail) of users experience, type of photographer (general, city, fashion, studio, landscape, nature, bird, ...) film, digital, or both, and basic cameras/lenses that a photographer uses. Perhaps that could be in a box or underneath the posters reply. I notice that some people seem to have it but I can't figure out how to add it to my profile. Could any help me?

Haha I can finally say it:
Posting anything positive about Apple will get you a smite. Seriously, once plus per post, what the heck?

The Karma system has gone. What a welcome move! Thanks Craig.
When I started posting on CR my intention was to contribute in a 100% positive way, drawing on 30+ years experience as a professional shooter.
As a creative game I thought I'd see if I could post in a positive, relevant way and never get a smite. I didn't get too many, but all were undeserved, baffling and eventually undermined my willingness to continue posting on CR.
There was a deep dislike of the system and I'm certain it kept successful professionals from contributing. It was starting to get a little trashy.
As most of us value the long term well being of CR Forums, and keep the quality of contributors high, then dumping the divisive applaud/smite system should deliver an overall quality surge.
