Probably because there's a lot of good will and genuine love for these unique games around. That's why i think it will never come to what you fear. Cleaning would be easier if down voting was an option. You can just block people who annoy you. It's very easy. I haven't blocked that many though, even though they may be annoying, rude etc. I like to hear other viewpoints. If I see something that is overly negative, I just shrug and move on. No reason to take it personally. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally unnecessary. Edited June 1, 2018 by Aragorn2002 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The down voting became almost a form of bullying. Exactly - the worst thing that can happen with up voting is I can post something and be slightly disappointing that it doesn't get any up votes or read some dumb comment that does get up voted and feel perplexed. But if I get ganged up on with down votes it feels a lot more personal. Edited June 1, 2018 by IanL Completed my thought 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holman Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Thanks! Yes, I saw Steve say "I'm going to make a separate announcement about that very shortly." I was wondering if he or anyone else had done so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mord Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Not yet. He's released quite a lot of info since Thursday. So it may be another day or so. Mord. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sublime Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 (edited) we had down votes for the forum it didnt work. for one JK woulda been gonenyears ago and though I mock him he does find good stuff sometimes and has just as mich right here as anyone. me also. theres an unnamed person close to the development team thats notoriously short with people.i dont know why but this guy has always seemed to dislike me insomich as u can a person u dont know on a msg board. no matter what i posted- one time i got 17 likes. the unlike? him. he got to the point he.d literally downvote anything i posted whether or not he was ij the discussion or the content. Sorry but ya it gets abused. pls sulomon i like u. i still owe u a pbem i had to bail on. yes i made some jokes about your bakruptcy comment but youve been around and i respect you. do you realize the absolute torrent of downvotes you would have gotten with that bankruptcy post and especially when CARLWAW (and all the naysayers) got completely showed up by 3 part mega bone? we.re better off about it. plus its too 'dumb' if someone wants to trash me lets hear their academic or witty reasons why im strong evidence that abortion should be legal ( jk jk my views i will not state ) not just a down thumb.

I'm glad it's disabled. The Kettlerian Universe is very different from how I perceive reality but I certainly respect John's passion and the wonderful nuggets he finds. We would likely not get along face-to-face but he merits all the innate social courtesies I can offer as well as the respect of his humanity which is only right. Viva la difference! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
