I think this would discourage voting if people have to fill a quota of words. But at the same time, upper class sites that involve voting (like Best Recipes) demands a minimum character count, and the reviews are always helpful; "I added a pinch of extra rosemary", "I substituted the plain flour for gluten free and it tasted fabulous".
I like the idea of seeing how much we have typed in a post. A running character count in the bottom left hand corner would be great :)

People on the site usually do not want to write a lot or even anything, they just want to vote and have it voice their opinion. I fear having this would discourage voting.
We certainly do not want less votes :)

Sometimes, a few words can do what thousands cannot do.

i personally feel if you actually liked a guide, a small comment would be good.

"If I like a guide, but don't feel like commenting, and C2V is enabled, I'll skip voting all together." - This is the case for a lot of people when it comes to C2V as it is now.

Especially on sites such as this where the majority of the visitors are "stalkers". By that I mean they read guides and vote, but refuse to post anything. It's a gaming site about creating guides, most people coming and going do not care enough to give you that comment; a vote on the other hand takes a few seconds. 
thanks Hogopogo for the banner :D

I feel like if we did that the new troll vote would just be "...................................." so I don't think it would solve anything, and like people have said it would discourage upvotes as well.
We just need to get rid of C2V ^.^ 
Thanks to GrandMasterD for my sig!

At worst it either raises the score of a bad guide super high or discourages voting altogether. I think an option on your comment to show your vote would be cool though. A lot of people ask how to get the green +1 bar (when C2V is off) to show on their comment. It would be nice to be able to leave a comment with the vote bar manually instead of it being tied to C2V.  Thanks to Minho for the sig! |

Not gonna happen (forced anything on votes). Reasons are generally already stated in this thread, but also elsewhere. We're more likely to drop C2V altogether, it is a flawed "solution" to a perceived problem. It's only here because authors demand it rather violently :P

people who also upvote and just say "+1" don't really say anything to encourage the author or help them improve their guide. even saying a "keep up the good work~" is a lot more encouraging than just saying "+1". course criticism is certainly welcomed, but personally, i think an extra word requirement on comments would help this community improve.
what do you guys say?
