I think we're missing stuff like that.
I didn't realize how much I care about this wank bank. I was genuinely annoyed when it looked like we were going to lose some of the regular posters. Not just because that'd lower the amount of content.
You could join the communities you're interested in, and then browse those. Then you'll just get the stuff you like, and you won't need to block.
I'm glad you're sticking around. You post good stuff.
Thanks for involving the community in the decision.
It's nice to see active admins on our instance.
The stated reason is spam. We've been getting a lot of that recently, so I get admins are looking for a way to deal with it. But the spam is being upvoted, so I don't think it's working.
I worry that regular posters will get discouraged and post less. A few have already mentioned that.
A poll isn't a good way to decide this. Regular posters suffer from downvotes more than others, and they drive our community. Their opinion should count for more.
Currently three regular posters have complained about it:
- Radovic
- Cleverhans
- LVL3_Eroticism.
It's shitty. I appreciate your posts. Here's hoping OP turns off downvotes and we can go back to the way we were.
I see a handful that have upvotes.
Currently downvotes are enabled on a trial basis, this was done by me to see if they can be enabled to prevent spam
There's a bunch of spam from a user called "BravoIsabella" that has positive upvotes, and a grumpy post from one of the AI communities saying "mystery downvoter show yourself".
Edit: we have three regular posters (Radovic, LVL3_Eroticism, and Cleverhans) saying they don't like the decision and they may stop posting. There's at least one instance of upvoted spam.
There are two instances of spam accounts getting upvotes
Maybe? I dunno. Turning off downvotes seems like a pretty simple solution. Trying to come up with complex ways to make it hurt just the right amount doesn't seem like it'll work in all cases.
