Suggestions for the database system and message counters.

I am satisfied with the current database system. Perhaps it would be helpful to display the number of upvotes or downvotes for each post. Not only for clarity, but also for easier detection of potential vote manipulation, if any. Unfortunately, downvoting does occur on the forum: recently, there was a case where someone deliberately downvoted a person they disliked. If each post by a particular user has a negative score, moderators can easily identify that something is amiss.
