The vote-up button should be removed from the front page. If users had to read at least some discussion about the article, inaccurate stories may never be voted so highly...<p>example http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=136270<p>(sorry for english)
And the "vote down" button should be removed until the voter has commented on the post. Getting fed up seeing worthy comments down-modded without explanation.
