This idea probably has some chance of working with a slight adjustment.
The higher a person's "respect" rating, the more weight their own 🙂 or 🙁 are given, perhaps.
That way it is a lot harder to abuse.
This would result, much like the rec system before it, "cliques" of bullies who only 🙂 their own clique members' posts, while 🙁 posts of people they disagree with.
The rec system was changed because it had become a "popularity" contest instead of a way to recommend good posts. So now you want to put in a true popularity contest?
Check out all the whining threads in Site Ideas saying "please bring back the rec system"... I guess this (and this thread) is what happens when you take away people's binkies...

What does scouting have to do with it?
Young wolves are called pups.
Young bears are called cubs.
I just noticed you're in the USA. Maybe in the USA you call baby wolves "pups" but in England they are "cubs".
Seems like FabianFnas just learned that American English and British English are different...
