Sguevar has been one of my favorite users since Madworld posted his research about suspicious news domains. It's not surprising to see him being honest and objective about the recent ban wave. I've only used one other account, game_maven, which I deleted long ago before creating Decidueye in order to prevent myself from being doxxed. While there's no doubt vote manipulation exists on Voat, the whole handling of the recent ban wave reeks. Around the time when Putt handed out the bans, he did say his first batch had errors and he rushed the fixed script out afterward. It's also hard to believe a user like Lakota_Pride, who's done nothing but positive in the Q subs, could be considered a destroyer.
I didn't figure you were the vote manipulating type, you honestly don't need to do that shit when you are a rational person with any sense of perspective.
Well it looks like I was just blown out, I'll share the last message I sent to Sguevar after madworld personally checked with putt on my behalf.

Just an update, @Obrez's ban was justified. Putt did double check.
I disagree but that's them saying "no appeal, no explanation"
Absolutely disappointing; as far as I can tell putt's unwillingness to say anything himself on the matter only confirms for me that this was personal to him.

I know I've downvoted him for getting overly emotional as admin, especially when he was musing on a system to back up the twisted bullshit he now calls "builders and destroyers" but generally I was all pro putt, up until this turn into what ever has gotten into his head.
This will probably be the end of my time on voat, so one last thanks for trying, goodluck with what ever you try to do on this site from here on.
Maybe poal will get better as putt and his sycophants drive folks out, it's all the same problem of further dividing the group, putt's egoism in all of this is going to play a role in constipating the rightwing swing, the last thing we needed in the time of censorship was a little tyrant of our own.
