Whenever you have voting people will assume that the outcome must have influence. People will think that so long as a bug is voted on enough its priority will rise until it must be fixed which need not be the case (popular bugs can remain open for a long time). This just creates angst and people go on and say "How come this bug with 500 votes hasn't been fixed? Bug XYZ has less votes so you should be fixing this one." If a low priority bug has a high number of votes people will become extremely angry. Trying to shame people into doing things (especially if they are not being paid) is a dicey business.
