Poll: Should HN display comment scores?
Personally, I get a lot of value from knowing the comment scores.  Mostly as a first-pass filter for finding the gems in the discussion.  I also really like them to help find the gems in a user's comment stream.<p>The value I get more than offsets any of the negative points mentioned elsewhere in this conversation (or the many others we've had since you started this experiment)<p><i>Please let me view comment scores</i>.  Make it a profile option or something.<p>--<p>This comment will likely be unread since the poll has already fallen off the front page.  But I care enough about the issue to write it up anyway.<p>Why did you post your poll over the holiday long weekend? I took my family on a road trip beach vacation (almost entirely offline) so I missed the chance to participate when the conversation was fresh and active :(
