Even just a number of users would be fine. It would be nice to know how many people are blocking your account. Even if it's private to the user only I think it would be useful.

That was suggested before, but never done because troll and kike accounts would be able to tell when they aren't effective anymore and it's time for them to make a new alt.

Oh, yeah. That is a good point. If you think about it.

An alternative could be a ping if someone blocks you. No "block count" and not letting the blocker know either. Sort of like when you post something to the wrong sub and it is moved by request or other reasons.

Does not need to include the name. Just "Someone blocked you after this post". or something. Probably not worth the effort though.

Actually.. That would be the same problem. Never mind.

While it's a more reasonable option, if you're an above mentioned waste of time account, it still could be used for you to count how many accounts blocked you, and thus create a new alt.

Yeah, Sorry for the multiple edits. Posted before really thinking it through. It really would just be the same problem. I get why this is not a "feature".

Why not tie it to a level then?

[–] • 4 pts 11mo

Or like a percentage of users that blocked you. When you reach 100% you win Poal.

[–] • 4 pts 11mo

Yeah, that would be interesting. I am sure I have pissed off plenty of people, even here. We have a "following" list, why not a "blocked" list too?

[–] • 1 pt 11mo

There's no list . Only the amount of Poalrs who are following you.

I agree. I just like statistics and as a person who has never downvoted or blocked anyone it would be nice to see who I need to avoid and target.

[–] [deleted] • 1 pt 11mo

That might be the very reason it's not done lol. I bet I have more blockers than followers

as a person who has never downvoted

Your profile shows that you did downvote 570 times.

48499 (-570) Claws given

Ah okay. That must have been when I first started. I thought the claws were how many times I'd been downvoted. Never done it in recent memory.

[–] • 1 pt 11mo

I've never implemented a public counter for when users get downvoted.

The admin console has one, so we can see when someone is getting targeted by several sock-accounts.

Also, since all the fakevoat trollfags are gone, the brigading algorithm has been disabled. It helps to save resources, thanks to our amazing Poalr base who is mature enough not to turn this place into a brigading and shitpost circlejerk.

Assholes who block me aren't worth my time. Site analytics would be interesting though. Perhaps the top 5 banners and the top 5 most banned. Add in percentages over time and cross reference how much of a faggot* the banner and bannee are.

EDIT: Not sure if a fag score is part of the user profile.
