I second this. This is the most important feature of any thumb rating system. Ability to hide post with negative thumb is a great addition to have to deal with spammer and troll.

Thanks for this great mod!

I wanted to know how I could change "Thumbs Up/Down" text into something different. I'm talking about the text that shows up under user's avatar:

You can change the phrases sc_thumbs_title_thumbsup and sc_thumbs_title_thumbsdown or you can edit the template sc_thumbs_postbit_info. :up:

Thank you. I found it. :]

hi, the mod is great, you did a good job, but I have a problem... whenever the user gives thumb, it refreshs the page... not using ajax.... why is that?
