I'm not sure how I feel about the thumbs down. "There are no dumb questions" aside, in my opinion, the thumbs down option leaves open an unnecessary avenue for hurt feelings and antagonism...

Overall, @Dave , I think this is a great feature! I love how you separated the spots for where answers go and follow-up questions go. I think that will be extremely beneficial for everyone. Honestly, I would love to see this format applied to other areas, too. For instance, in my seed swap "wish lists" thread that I start for every swap, a lot of the comments get in-between the wish lists and make it difficult for people to easily see just the wish lists that were posted. Is it possible you could create something like this that I could use in the seed swap? There are a number of other thread that could probably benefit from this, too, but another that I strongly feel would benefit from this setup is the Plant ID forum.
