Fighting the crowd effect

It's no secret that on Habré a lot is decided by user feedback on everything that only moves. This is of course a very handy tool to quickly assess the quality of articles, blogs and comments.

But this also has the opposite effect of the crowd, when a person begins to focus on public opinion and his decision is affected by the number of minuses or advantages already instructed.

You can make information about the number of votes closed until the member has voted. Then the number of voters may grow (due to curiosity) and the share of personal opinion in the assessment.

Principle in personal settings, you can enter the options for displaying votes: “I try to be objective” and “Pre-study public opinion”.
