| Ryuu96 said: Approved! But it sadly isn't up to the Mod team, sorry I do hate downvotes though, I even question if upvotes are hurting the site as it could be argued they discourage posting but on downvotes specifically, they were originally mostly for spambots to hide them until a Mod dealt with the comment, now we have next to no spambots so that's irrelevant. It seems to me now that downvotes are used (mostly) for console warring, folk downvoting fanbases for being on the other side, folk downvoting users simply cause they dislike them, regardless of the content of their post, I hate that supporters have extra voting power because it isn't a true representation of things and I think we'll get to a point where it discourages posting entirely. Idk if Talon is still around though Tbh... |
Yeah the spambots are pretty much gone at this point, which just has us seeing selective ppl being censored, which sucks.
I don't even know why we're still seeing warring, considering that this new gen isn't anywhere as lopsided as it was early last gen. Xbox didn't massively fumble and Sony didn't get an easy win, this gen it's pretty much neutral, at least in my eyes.
It is a bit odd though, how supporters get double the upvote/downvote power, because that's like having two people on one account.
If Talon ever comes back or shows up, we'll have to talk to him about this, because I honestly think the site would be better off if we either got rid of the downvoting system or the upvote/downvotes altogether (it would actually get people to discuss more, instead of relying on a single button).
Step right up come on in, feel the buzz in your veins, I'm like an chemical electrical right into your brain and I'm the one who killed the Radio, soon you'll all see
So pay up motherfuckers you belong to "V"
