May 20, 2013 at 12:57 comment added Shoe @JeffAtwood, I think it's -3.
Oct 31, 2012 at 0:09 comment added Jeff Atwood @yannis the threshold is already -8 on all metas AFAIK and has been for a very long time. This is much higher (lower?) than the main sites for that very reason.
Oct 17, 2012 at 15:42 comment added Rob W @JoshCaswell This one: It is hard to read (comments at) a downvoted answer?

Aug 8, 2012 at 4:07 comment added Robotnik @BenBrocka - Imagine your last comment was an answer. It's not a bad point at all, but the first 3 people to get to it didn't agree with what you said and voted it down. You've already been pushed to the bottom of the answer queue, and now you've passed the "greyed out" threshold as well. The first, fair enough- people don't agree. The second almost smacks of censorship, like the post has no worth. I agree there should be a 'grey-out' threshold (if a post is bad enough it WILL be heavily downvoted) but I thnk the bar should be around -7 as opposed to -3
Aug 8, 2012 at 4:06 comment added jscs closely related: Un-fade low score answers on rollover or click, and I swear this is a dupe but I can't find it.
Aug 8, 2012 at 3:46 comment added Zelda Heavily downvoted meta answers are often "wrong" in one way or another, just like main site answers. It's just that on main your answer is probably terrible because of some more objective criteria, whereas on meta your answer is probably terrible because of some more subjective criteria. They've both earned their low sort order and their "not much to see here" styling in all likelyhood.
Aug 8, 2012 at 2:39 comment added jmort253 @YannisRizos - **<search> controversial:1 user:1 would come up with lots of posts now wouldn't it? :)
Aug 8, 2012 at 2:17 comment added yannis @jmort253 like if it was a controversial statement from Jeff Atwood You mean he makes non controversial ones?
Aug 8, 2012 at 1:52 comment added jmort253 Or at least, if nothing else, put the transparency back to normal when mousing over the content. Sometimes it's necessary to be able to read the answer, like if it was a controversial statement from Jeff Atwood, for instance.
Aug 8, 2012 at 1:30 comment added yannis Voting on Meta is used to show agreement / disagreement, assuming a quality post. If the post is of low quality, then voting works exactly the same as on the main site. The threshold for semi-transparent answers is -3 (if I'm not horribly mistaken). I guess it would make sense for Meta to have a larger (lower?) threshold, how does -8 sound?
