[Captain Phil]1. Remove it. If you disagree with a post then write why with a good argument so that people stop upvoting that post and obviously do not upvote it yourself.[/Captain Phil]

Hmm. Perhaps ONE STEP TOWARDS your more ideal solution would be to weigh the "comments with good arguments" AGAINST the power of the stronger upvoters (those with more SP). For instance, for each "whale" downvote EACH opposing comment could knock off a PERCENTAGE of the power of that downvote. This would AT LEAST provide SOME kind of a better BUFFER than the system we currently have - although I could be wrong. Just a thought...
