Voat had this same ideal regarding down votes about 5 years ago when I joined. Until the popularity rose and the shills and brigades came. Without adapting to this, voat would have just been overrun.

You may see once this site starts to attract the wrong attention. It is a noble ideal, but some people don't allow for that kind of peace. Hopefully the suspicious behavior tag helps, as that type can't help but to downvote.

But. 2 years later I informed a new wave of the rule, and found out it had been destroyed.

Bottom line. Voat already did this. Know that history before belittling.

You aren't dealing with people who use a downvote button differently, you are dealing with people who have already fought that battle and had no choice but to adapt.

Voat was forced to adapt or die, so please step down off of that high horse. You can explain without looking down your nose so sharply.

Hopefully it goes better here, as I fully agree with the sentiment, but I also have met those who choose to make it nearly impossible.

I am not advocating against it not being a disagree button, I agree with that. I just want to explain that many from voat have already traveled that road.

The two days leading up before Christmas there was post on the front page that were two days old.

Because it was using an older algorithm, updated since.

Nobody had voted on in hours

LOL again with your retarded excuses.

It's holiday season and you still expect everyone to stay online instead of having a good time with their family...

>LOL again with your retarded excuses.

I'm not going to engage with you anymore.I have figured you out. Mommy and daddy didn't show you enough attention. When you was little. So now you are an attention-seeking whore. Even if it's negative attention. Attention is attention. The people coming over here from voat are mostly like-minded, Right-wing. Your mind is so clouded with tribalism, over something as trivial as a website. You can't see that

I will not engage with you anymore. You are a waste of time.

Being on the right means you don't follow crowds, so that sentence makes no sense.

I'll do what I want, you do what you want, does what he wants. If you don't like that then you're a shapeshifting commie.

Being like-minded has nothing to do with following the crowd. If you have 25 people that are right wing, and they don't follow the "crowd". You gather them up. You have a group of like-minded people. I can't believe I have to explain this to you

If you were "like-minded" you would have been here before the move was forced upon you. Please stop trying to turn this space into the shitholistan you left.

Look at my history so for, and tell me how I'm trying to do shit. But add content.

How long do you think the Jewish trolls will leave this place alone??? That is kind of the point of the post.

Sounds like a good argument, but that makes no sense. Many of us goats have been here at least a couple times while voat was down: we thought it sucked here. It wasn't the site, it was the people.

we might be like-minded, but you guys over here are touchy about some things and have these weird social contracts controlling behavior.

I'm not going to say you're a douche, but you acting like douchey jew.
