[quote=@AbigailTenshi]In my opinion, I like that the rating buttons pop up when you hover your mouse over a post, I feel it makes the threads look less cluttered, unlike on Iwaku where the ratings are permanently visible. Perhaps they could be greyed a little but still pop up so atleast they're not too noticeable. However, I don't mind how it is at the moment personally o3o

It is purely the pop-up itself that is the irritating thing - making them grayed out but keeping the pop-up would not solve anything for me. The grayed out suggestion was there just because another person expressed that the ratings buttons would look too bright and garish against the predominantly graytone theme of the Guild. 

But yeah. The pop-up is really very grating, especially when I am trying to look for something and excessively scrolling through threads (and might mouseover plenty of posts). It is the general annoyance of things popping up in my peripheral vision coupled with maybe FPS instincts or something else kicking in, or whatever it is that makes flies landing on your screen bothersome, but in any case, *twitch*.


Edit@cellphones: I find that the tap-registering on my cell-phone is generally too poor for single/double-tap distinction to be a good mechanic - more often than not I am multiple-tapping just to make sure it registers it as a tap, not sliding action or just holding. I've replied and browsed the site from cell a couple of times, but I don't think I've ever seen the ratings buttons on cell (which to me might be a positive thing rather than otherwise, but eh, if I wanted them I'd not really be getting them).
