I'm happy to provide the code for this myself if needs be. But it'd be nice to get an opinion on whether the downvote function should be removed.
I think it's a redundant feature in this subreddit where the opposite political side appear to downvote you, which can hide very valid points in the thread. The admins on this sub do a brilliant job removing irrelevent and offensive material, making the downvote feature pointless.
So instead of downvoting you simply don't upvote it, it then gives an indication of how many people support a particular view exactly, and how many support an opposite view, sort of like an election of comments as it were.
