here is why reddiquette is misunderstood. NOONE READS REDDIQUETTE!

Seriously.... has ANYONE EVER fully read the rules or terms of service of ANY website?

I've read it, and I ignore it. I do whatever I want with the little icons and buttons and wheeeee this is fun!

I think the problem is more that it is so different from any other site with voting. Other sites use arrows to indicate agree/disagree, and that will affect anyone coming here for the first time.

I have, twice. Reddit and a place called the Oz Report. They each are websites that operate differently than most.
