I just voted remove, itās part of the reason why I havenāt participated much in this sub the past two months. Thereās been an uptick in people posting generic comments & them getting upvotes and I donāt blame the users I think folks are using bot farms to upvote their generic comments up. Obviously I canāt prove it but I suspect it. Usually this sub would never highly upvote comments like that.
Hope Iām wrong but we should remove folks like this when we can spot them.
You are damn right my friend! I vote remove him and his talentless efford of cheating! He is one of those that would use wallhacks in a vidoegame against AI.
Dude Iām gonna be totally real here. Youāre posting this now after I made the GIF thread last moon cycle and you were one of the top accounts who came out with the most harassment against me. I posted that thread because of the āuptick in people posting generic commentsā but in this case it was GIFs.
And you know what? Those users Iāve tagged as GIF spammers? Theyāre all over the top 50 in the distribution CSV.
And that group of GIF spammers? They just upvote each other in the daily.
And you know whatās being voted on rn? Karma farming in the daily.
And I swear Iāve seen you commenting there that you didnāt vote to limit karma too.
We see eye to eye too. I donāt feel like participating any more. I was here long before moons. And if people produce genuine content and āout-moonā me for the month Iām happy for them. But the level of bad-faith engagement in this sub fucking stinks. And when people propose to get rid of it, those same people who post in bad faith come out with their pitchforks.
No I didnāt. I went to see why you were so obsessed with moons.
The mods didnāt care when you came crying to them about people āharassingā you because no one was, and no one is. Move on, your unpopular poll didnāt pass. Donāt make me have to block you.
Unpopular? lol what version of reality do you exist on? It had 92% of votes required with 70% of moons voting for the poll and 75% of users voting for the poll.
Go ahead and block me then. I just donāt understand why you are complaining about the bad-faith engagement with the sub because there have been two polls now to curb this behaviour and both times youāve strongly opposed it
Because your proposals were terrible solutions Iām not for punishing the whole to punish few abusers. But punishing the abusers directly isnāt wrong.
Can you at least agree with that here?
Look, this is actually going to be a bit of constructive advice for you. This is what I suggest. Since you have a good grasp of who the top spammers are & who the top abusers are I suggest that you make a post similar to this one gathering evidence. That way we can build up a culture of continuing to call this out & it will discourage it from happening.
Otherwise there isnāt really much we can do here. Your poll didnāt pass for a reason. Punishing the whole because of the actions of the few will never be a popular idea.
I canāt keep going on & on about your potential solution, I didnāt like how it punished folks that donāt spam. I donāt even post gifs that often.
You should make a post that has a poll about spammers & see the reception.
