I mean, those calls weren't unanimous. There were a lot of people who disagreed, and they're not really getting a chance to have their voice heard here.
That’s kind of the problem, decisions keep being made on “calls” to do something. Some certain clique or thread “calls” to make some change and everyone else bucks.
I could see this being an issue because people were complaining about overzealous banning, and now we have no way to police ourselves and will basically have to increase bans
I would be happy if you announced that you will no longer be banning for anything except harassment, threats, spam, and we could have free for all dunking sessions like the good old days
You could even put in a feature where -10 or something gets you temp muted or hidden or slower posts. Let us police ourselves and bully the baddies
Yeah, stuff like that is why I'm pretty cool with whatever you do on this. It's a lot easier to throw suggestions out there than it is to implement improvements.
People are humans, and humans have psychological quirks like treating comments that are at -3 worse than comments that are at +7, even if they rationally understand that those comments and the vote responses to them are the same. Entire industries are built on playing little mind games like this to squeeze money out of consumers, and it works.
Shouldn't this have been voted on?
After all the calls to simply disable downvoting these past few weeks? No.

Yeah and it’s dumb. Reject Chacha, return to Chapo
Because all the people who have been leaving are a very clear indication that we've been doing a great job policing ourselves, haha.
Press the report button.
Well like I said you could but a temp mute on people with low scores.
A lot of the people leaving are from the weird ban waves and bigotry accusations and just don’t want to have their votes audited

This site sure is fun
All of about 15 people called for this.
No.

I don't think it's such a big change that it requires a vote. It can always be changed back.
Starting off every comment at +10 might make everyone happy, though.
