Thanks for the comment. I'll check it.

Reddit has downvotes yet has this more than ever.

This place, as long as downvotes aren't there, not really seen anything of the sort and volume will be low for the ones which are there. Many have determined that is due to low user volume. Haha. As if. The proportion itself is much lower, non-existent compared to those which have downvotes.

At some point people need to go that extra mile and start thinking the reason for things. Like, ironically as I say right now will happen, will the existence of downvotes attract these people to the instance? Rather than deter them?

I was about to ask what exactly is the problem—is it the asking of the question or the spamming of the question? And if it is the spamming of the question, isn't that already covered in 'spam'? This seems very oddly specific.

That was what I wanted to ask—but then it got into stuff which begged the question from me subconsciously, what constitutes an idiot anyway… in this particular situation. And that was before we got into 'false positive reaction'.

I don't know… I merely trusted people to think on their own, and the ones who by chance refuse to think on their own get their dues too, while others wouldn't be swayed due to thinking on their own. It seemed that simple to me… perhaps that doesn't suffice for most? Interesting…

does people sharing their dicks for others and not you irritate you so much🤔

Or, frankly is you care so much, try to implement disabling downvotes only on the local filter which puts the top recent posts from among all communities of the instance. A real solution to the problem you have, however hard to implement… however putting downvotes again will only attract people who are here for the votes and tend to be toxic, won't they? Why do the current posters still post, why is the general quality better than reddit, and why is the state of this instance relatively pristine in terms of acceptance. Why do you currently see comments that many have made this instance's account their main account. But that is not my problem🤷 it seems downvotes will eventually come here and those problems will, as well.

Of all the points you could pick, you pick the anti-bullying one. The point of local, which is the only place where this would apply, is where all the posts which gain a large number of votes in their own communities are put. It is a place where even everything nsfw, as long as it does not break sitewide rules, is also welcome. The only reason to downvote such a thing rather than browse subscriptions instead or ignore the post and move on, in practical terms, would be acting on going out of your way for making sure they don't exist. To tell those posters to just fuck off and go away, even when they didn't decide to put it outside the community.

And this dude seriously argued that point under the argument of morality hahahahaha. Hahahaha hahahahahahahaha.

Yes, I've learnt that lesson already. It is a good one.

I don't really understand the dedication part… but hopefully you come across it somewhere. I'll probably keep this account since I'm not a poster anyway, and will see how things go. If your account remains unremoved, I will try to remember to send you a message after I start distribution.

Good luck with your busy week😁 hope you don't tire out from it.

Deleting stuff… it is something which I have done in the past too. It works, even if the result cannot be seen. These things are always a risk of when you contribute to something that is not yours.

I appreciate this, it is cool. I've never done something to this degree before (maintaining such a contributing account) but I understand the effort that goes into this. It never is merely the simple linking of random stuff from the internet, is it? I really liked some of the ones posted.

In a few years I'm going to write a book; it is meant to be lowbrow comedy non-political, in a world of political turmoil, for the first one. If you enjoy it, it will be my form of appreciation towards you. It is meant to be free and creative commons anyway but I'd be really happy to share it directly at the time, with no obligation placed to actually read it. I have confidence in the ability I have built that way, and hope you get a good bit of enjoyment from it more than anything. Hmm, it will have some sexual content but very little, it is not a porn story, and the story itself is without sexual abuse and overpowering themes (or taking a political stance from any side, more so specifically choosing not to take any side known or unknown).

Good job, a few saved posts from my saved list have been replaced by blanks. And who can blame the ones who did it? (Many will, considering these did get a bit of abusive words despite doing some good things). This place has become a place to debate and argue rather than have a good jerk. Ha! Just what was needed.

Being a bit of a dick is normal, so it is tolerated, and opinions are given importance, these dickheads are given respect for abusing the very ones who made this place work. What's next now? Enforcing moderation on those who answer back to them? It is the norm in the more corporate forums so I—would—not—be—surprised—at—all. Good job all.

Hehe… who could've seen this coming. The majority of good willing people here couldn't, how surprising🫢 If the world had more silent thinking (which is my style) and less debating (which was how things were before this slight seemingly insignificant change, a change which incited the question of whether each posting itself was right or wrong), these things wouldn't happen… but it is not the place of idiots like me to interrupt the legitimate high-placed people of the world from shooting their own feet so… carry on. It is amusing in itself. I'll start a casual bet (smiles on wager, so the world benefits from it) on just how much everyone among these well intentioned ones choose to ignore the results out of embarrassment. I say the majority will be too embarrassed to even talk about it again, as if it never happened, and try to shut down anyone who references it for being 'incorrect' or 'wrong'😁 Better yet, some will blame and insult the few posters who deleted everything. That will definitely happen.

How ironic is it that for the sake of arguing for good quality posts, you would drive away the posters of some of the best quality posts💀

Your post in my saved list will be missed🥲 you posted some good things. Damage is already done. I don't think those insecure twats on their high horses will ever realise though.

This place was chill, and a little bit of stupidity and idiocy was tolerated here, unlike most of the internet. However the idiocy will now make way for foolish insecurity and geniuses who come here to debate and argue rather than have a good jerk🥲

I'd appreciate some good sources so I could look myself… in case you're willing and are not too pissed off by the situation. It is fine if you don't/can't

Ehehehehe it is better this way no, everyone downvotes where they want to downvote? This is proper. Unless you're saying you want people to downvote where you want them to downvote and don't want them to downvote where you don't want them to downvote… can you be so insecure? That is not possible. You are a generous person and I suggest we all contribute to make small figurine statues of your great likeness in honour of this forum (I'm a poor chap after all). Butt plug size…

Enabled downvotes and place immediately got more argumentative and a bit more toxic. No, not want.

I too, as a person who has no feelings for men, have clicked posts for gay porn by accident. I too have come across posts which I did not prefer, even if they were concerning women. I, too, have seen some things which in general I do not like. In these cases—

I simply became more careful and started taking a look at the community name first. Secondly I started looking for communities whivh fit what I like better. Niche ones without exposure. A good sign. For the last, there are a number of ways for me to deal with it, like simply moving on. Blocking where maliciousness exists. Finding other communities. Et cetera.
