Cool design, the y-meter reminds me a lot of the hubwheel we have at hubski[1]. In that vein you could remove the up arrow on the left side of the feed and differentiate on the y-meter itself whether or not you've clicked it. [1]: htt

From the talk page[1] it looks like it wasn't random anonymous strangers but an established editor who's taken offence to her having, "the gall to complain about her articles" [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Amanda_Filipacchi
