Poll: What do you think of HN with votes-hidden?

I hate to beat a dead horse.<p>But...I, like many others it seems, am really not happy with the absence of up-votes on comments. I personally think a lack of high-quality comments and comments to comments has happened as a result, but some will disagree.<p>As an example, this is especially witnessed in comments whose replies often would get a HIGHER vote-count than the introductory comment. There's no way to highlight this now and I think that is being lost. The comments used to be the greatest thing about HN and I fear this being affected too much with these changes.<p>In my opinion, taking away vote counts is not (at present) fixing the quality of newer comments on HN.<p>Smarter people have debated this topic here http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2477479 and http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2495137 , and it's clearly a topic of debate.<p>Just wanted to make a poll and take the community's opinion of the new changes. What do you think?
