Bring back down arrows on story submissions, but instead of voting the story down like before, enough down votes would show the community disagrees with that type of submission.

It doesn't seem like that's very useful. Anyone can read the story and form their own opinion...

>>palish+ykb
I didn't say the opinion, I said the type of submission. Also, the story and points would continue to appear unaffected.

What's going on with the hostilities on this site for the past two days? You could have easily said, "I have another idea about how this could work" with your link.

Hey, relax, I wasn't being hostile, just pointing out that the feature wasn't useful. The only thing the feature would accomplish is adding bias to a submission. If someone sees that the community disagrees with a submission, they're more likely to think of the submission as "bad" before they read it and not upvote it (and probably they're more likely to downvote it). That will be directly reflected in the comments, causing someone who had nice things to say about the submission to not comment lest his karma take a nosedive.

Unless you're talking about a whole "category" of submissions, in which case I have no idea how to divide submissions into different types.
