Just a reminder that reporting posts you don’t like (or that you disagree with, or that are disagreeing with you) but that do not break any rules is a waste of my time and yours. Downvote and move on. Repeat offenders will be banned.

    Can we place bets on how many reports this post will get?

    The downvotes on this post hahahaha

    I miss being able to see who had voted your post down, like early Kbin versions.

      I mean, the instructions were pretty clear: «Downvote and move on»

      Pretty sure you still can, you just have to be browsing from an instance that gives normal users visibility to it.

      Votes have to be tied to identities for federation of votes to work properly across instances, so that info is always available to the instance owner/admins, just not always visible to community mods and normal users.

    One of the community rules is be nice. Am I allowed to report anything I don’t think is nice?

    The sheer pettiness of people on the Internet will never fail to amuse me.

    Would somebody add a paid option to mega down vote?

    Like, I’ll pay a dollar for one chance to overwrite somebody’s comment with "I am a giant peepeedoodoohead (or strike through their text would also be good)

    This would work very well because on the one hand, I’m only going to do that to Giant peepeedoodooheads, and it costing a dollar would prevent me from doing it to every single one that I encounter, only the most atrocious, and it would allow me to financially contribute to this instance.

      I’m pretty sure Something Awful used to have something like this back in the day.

        They did, but idk if the SA boards should be treated as the model forums should aspire to

        I don’t think I’ve ever seen that, is that maybe instance or client specific? Otherwise I doubt that I’ve only ever been the first person to report a post.

      Maybe by asking the mods, and they do you a favor. Otherwise, the modlog only shows actions mods took, which doesn’t include ignoring a report.
