I personally think we should have both the flagging system and the up/down voting of \
comments. One main reason I can think of that would make the flagging system more \
successful in picking up on "bad" notes is that it's a specific feature that will \
only be used for singling out comments that should not be there. Whereas with the \
down voting system of a comment, users may misuse or abuse this if they're wanting to \
get their own note above the other notes. This would make it rather ambiguous as to \
what notes are actually considered "bad" and need to be moderated. That's my two \
cents at least. Thanks,
--Thomas
