The mods who banned trans users who disagreed with disabling upvotes are good faith (to…errr…protect trans users???)
lmao what?
Then they changed it anyway. Then they had to change it back because no one liked it
they undid it because people asked them to. Tyranny!
It doesn’t come from anything that users particularly wanted
might not come from things you wanted, but everything you've mentioned did absolutely have user support. Otherwise, as you pointed out, it'd have gotten changed back because no one liked it
who keep announcing (read: declaring) changes to site in the most shitty and unhelpful ways possible.
I'll 100% give you this one, the tone struck during announcements and such is way off, and a lot of problems could be avoided with a more careful approach imo
Do you mean removing downvotes or did upvotes get removed at one point and you're talking about a different thing?
The main thing is that you keep attributing mistakes to malice, which I heavily contest. No one is saying the modteam is perfect or even has a great track record, but they do consistently try their best to respond to feedback and make this place better however they can.
I just want one website that I visit for once to not have weird mods, or weird inter-mod drama.
I get ya, but it seems to me if every website has this problem, it's a lot to expect for this site, birthed from reddit, to break that mold so magically.
Keep pushing for changes you think will be good, but imo the best way to do that is in good faith and not half joking like your posts started here, as that's a surefire way to get taken as a shitstirrer instead of a concerned user. Also makes it much more likely that you'll actually see the results you want
Just made an alt 'cos I just got banned for being a "wrecker" and "breadcrumb" or whatever that fucking means. So no "pushing for changes I think will be good". Criticising mods for things they've objectively done is "wrecking". This after months of contributing to the site, mostly by posting news and other articles to the site I thought would be interesting/useful.
Sorry but I was just proven right by the mods. Banning for absurdly minor shit.
