Yes, gentrification is when rowdy people who whine about the preexisting rules come in.
What about people who disagree with new rules added since we've been here, and who get dogpiled by the community exploiting aspects / loopholes of those rules?

You mean people who get punished for making alts and trying to downvote a lot so they can control things like they did on Voat?

Like the level changes for sub making? That's to prevent a huge flood of people all trying to do it at once.
My point is that gentrification is when people improve a rundown place. It's ungrateful and somewhat stupid to imply Poal was rundown. I still find it funny that people who harshly decry immigration are insulted by the idea that they have to assimilate when they go somewhere else.

No. I have no complaints with how management is handling that. It seems appropriate enough. With that said, it's also clear to me that the people it's effecting are just changing their tactics. Goal post moved, and all that.

I have no complaints with that. It makes sense, especially as a dam mechanism to stem the flow of abuse.
Then what do you mean, ire?
I think the additional measures taken for blocking users have subsequently created a circular problem leading to proliferation of an echo chamber.
Trying to discuss this seriously is met with the usual behavior, suspiciously reminiscent of Voat's SBBH crowd with users like anticlutch & conspirologist. (see: a bunch of low-IQ retards frothing at the mouth defending this abuse: https://poal.co/s/AskPoal/314336)
This mechanic, specifically, is blatantly being abused by known bad actors. Nobody seems to care, which suggests it's working as intended. If so, this is not the place for me.
I love your humor jello-bro.
