Actually I think that a "thumbs down" button would be a great tool. But I think it should (just as the "thanks" button does) display the name of the member giving it to them. That would curb the abuse factor (any member who abuses it would be seen by all).

I would be very hard pressed to use it as I wouldn't judge anyone's tastes with it but I certainly would use it for someone who consistently adds nothing but rude comments and complaints (especially while contributing zilch to the community).

Just my .01 worth. (I can't afford .02)
