Yeah you right, and Not disagreeing but many do it without being on a payroll (npc-tier users that think they're bringing the noise and are informed). Look at the fcking front page from time to time the same few users copy pasting literally dozens of msm articles and nonsense links- absolute garbage. When you call them out on it, it's all ' just showing how corrupt everything is - their narrative is falling apart' spergy bs. As for those that keep copy pasting the entire fcking article in their title post as well is just ..... sad. Many such cases.
I think it was actually professor that got my score reset this past week. I logged in and the whole front page was just spammed with copy/pasta. Of course downvoting trash is a big no no. When it comes to this site, they just want it to look like shits going on, when its just a few shills.
Yeah the entire no down voting is very nonsense - i mean if ytube thinks not being able to downvote site wide is a great idea and improvement then i'm automatically opposed, it's like being told you can't boo at a sports match or throw someones business card in the trash cause it might hurt their feelings.
I'm not a fan of the 'no downvote' crap either, even though I'd likely get nuked continuously if it was allowed....not that I would give a shit. I consider sites like this partly an opinion poll, and partly an advice column like 'Dear Abby'; not a popularity contest. The downvotes never meant anything at Reddit (nor did 'gold'). Anyone that needs ego strokes to participate here, probably don't need to be here.
