So we've seen this talked about this a few times since downvotes on posts became public for users over level 6. The goal of making them public for posts was to prevent brigading and it has been pretty effective. A few users didn't like it and left. I think some of those people came back under new names. So the question is, should we do the same for comments, IE add a comment details button something similar that allows users over level 6 to see who downvoted their comments. We are looking forward to what the community thinks.

Just seems presumptuous to claim something as your own when you haven’t really contributed to it’s survival. All you do is complain over there too huh?

The fuck does donating have to do with it? It's not stocks, you don't own a part of it by donating, plus since the "angel" it hasn't been asked.

If all I did was complain over there, anon votes would hold me accountable, wouldn't it;)

Admits recruiting Voaters

And non anon votes can hold you just as accountable, it only becomes a problem if you get butt hurt about it and want “revenge” and go on a downvote campaign which people did on voat all the time. This is designed to prevent that or at least hold people accountable for it.

Never said I was recruiting, your words not mine. Try harder faggot.

You can mental gymnastics your way around it all you want, you said you don't "give other options" anymore.

So literally what is the difference if votes are anon or not? If it's public and the "public can deal with it" is that not to say they won't label a downvoter a troll and do exactly to those accounts what they're complaining happens anonymously?

You can't seem to come to a solid answer on this.
