The correct voting system looks like this: everyone assigns to each post the score they think it should have. The voting system adds a number of “fake votes” at each threshhold to ensure that posts with few votes don’t get too high a rating, and then takes the median vote as the score. That way there’s no need for “corrective voting”—voting for the score you want to see will always do the right thing.
