the problem with downvotes on this sub-board.

Believe it or not, Downvotes and negative comments make other people think that its pointless to try and read chatlogs or agree with an -10 post, even if they are right.

downvotes are good ways to keep players out of pointless threads, but it forces a hive mind, even if they feel different, they want to fit in.

or its just me.

Damn i need some coffee.

edit: -4... Ironic.

Which "person who is right" are you referring to in this instance? Someone who was chat restricted or banned and posts their chat logs?

Your right lmao.

its been this way in this board section. anyone that post about getting punished,or disagrees with the hive mind that toxicity is bad,they get downvoted to hell.

The thing is that's not what downvotes are for.they are for removing post that break the rules,like being disrespectful,posting sexual content etc. Its not a "I disagree" button.

Its litteraly going to be a gigantic hive mind,until a moderator does something about downvotes in here.

I downvote because I disagree.

However, I DO agree that you need more coffee.

Problem is, do you moderate the person who cast the stone or the people retaliating to having the stone thrown at them?

You're not wrong, but on the flip side, I don't think I've ever seen a -10 comment worth reading.
