When you login after having not visited WhyNot in a few days it would be nice to see a message that said something like

"Your suggestion 'Hats For Dogs' has had a net gain of 2 votes"

"Your suggestion for 'Taxing People Who Own More Than 3 Cats' has nine new comments and a net loss of 1 vote"

The comment titles would be links so the person (whoever log'ed in) could say "Oh, I wonder what people said..." and just be a click away from the answer.

They do something similar to this on www.everything2.com, but they just say something like "You gained 5 points" (or whatever), they don't say why (but it's usually for someone voting for your work or for a big-wig "cool"ing your work by putting it on the virtual mantle and saying "look at this baby!").

What do you think of this idea or comment?
