I don't think the chatbox or threads should have such a big impact on voting. It really comes down to people being more interested in the drama side of the site which is the forums etc, also known as the outlets to conversation and idle time lol. The same people who say voting is low, are the ones who drop maybe 1 vote a day, if that.
I think that utilizing the other sections, other then the basic area where everyone is posting could really benefit voting. Right now, you go to the battle sections and maybe 3 out of 10 battles are worth reading or hearing. If we started using that other section though, making it where you had to qualify in a way to use which would cut down on a lot of the clutter, then people might be more willing to vote because they know it's a worthy battle and they didn't have to search through pages of crap.
Just some thoughts.
