This has probably been discussed before, but I do not like the trend of using "agree with..." No-Votes or variations (e.g. "dito") of it.
In my opinion, a No-Vote should clearly state, why you are voting No.
When everybody only refers to the elaboration of one real No-Vote, and that No-Voter changes his reason, or even changes his vote altogether, then all these "agree" votes are meaningless. And probably you are then agreeing to something, which you do not really agree with to begin with (and do not even know doing so).

Feel free to ignore this little rant. Just a thought.

I agree with you. I try to always give the reason just in case.

Agree 110%. I've often seen contributions where a NO voter provided a reason for his/her NO vote and a bunch of others would just "agree". Then the original no voter changed his/her vote to neutral and all that was left was 5 or 6 "agree"s left on the page. Looked rather ridiculous .

Same here.. I like when people leave something more than 'ditto'... or 'same as above'...

When someone vote and leave a message in the box, I use my 'positive' vote in return (too bad only 5 /day)

I have to agree with you Tom this is a valid point, I know I have been guilty of this at times.

I would like a "Subscribe to this vote" checkbox so when the contributor updates his notes I will be notified of the change and I do not have to re-check the contribution every now and then.

I'd prefer that Ken removed the possibility of updating contribution notes. Withdrawing and resubmitting is much better in most instances. IMHO.

I agree, but sometimes it is useful because if user "X" wrote something and user "Y" agrees, but has another thing to say, than user "Y" has the problem that the "NO"-field only allows about 150 characters.
