The thing I can own is that I'm not poal-savvy enough to understand half of what you're talking about. Algoed? As in algorhythm? (sp) I guess. I can't account for what Poal might think I'm doing wrong. "Just behave instead of mass upvoting trolls who are trying to slide poal's frontpage" I don't know what that means. Look man, I'm just a crotchety old ex-soldier helicopter mechanic. But whatever ploy the thing thinks it caught me in was just simple clicking the upvote button on things I agreed with. Or thought were funny. Or added to the conversation, even if I disagreed. I don't really know or care about the intra-poal politics with who is considered a bad guy, good guy, or troll. If it makes me chuckle, I click the little up arrow. That's it.
