Personally, I think it would be ideal to have one to two instance left wing trolls. If you don’t want to deal with them, you can block them but I think that having 1 to 2 instance trolls or just allowing trolls in general could help drive traffic here and make the place fun especially if you do not take their bullshit too seriously. There is always the risk that they Do a mass rush though. But at least we would get to talk shit to an actual person.

    I say

    • don’t ban anyone who doesn’t violate the very rules we follow
    • probably disable down votes. Down votes are never that great anyway.

      I like down votes, so long as they don’t actually affect anything.

      I dislike downvotes as a moderation method; love it as an opinion poll.

        Yeah I see what you mean but we do end up with tons of stuff just being downvoted without as much relative input from people

        If I see 20 downvotes and zero comments I feel like it’s just outside trolls
