Also against this. As others have said, it will make the site gay like reddit. The disagree button already adequately serves the same function. I guess if we're running a honeypot to gather up all the based anti-semites and deradicalize them, it sort of makes sense to have a mechanism to hide their posts so they aren't further radicalizing each other. L'chaim, Rusty!

Rusty is not an individual. He's a group account run by several 3-letter acronyms. The three main admins of the account are:
  • an NSA developer
  • an FBI lawyer
  • a NEET who works for the CIA who has some moderately good opinions on rpgs.

This is known and that's why Rusty is more of an idea than an individual.

And since I'm an American patriot I want to support him with freedom bux, but because he's blatantly anti-Catholic he'll have to suffer the free market. No bux for Rusty until he bends the knee to the Holy See. :knight-cross:

When a forum does this it inevitably changes how the forum operates. Now instead of each person having the same amount of power, it becomes majority rule. Unfavorable opinions (decided by the group) are downvoted, despite whether they are true or not, or need to be heard, lessening the strength and value of the individual and ultimately hurting the site. This will be used to wield power by those who suck up to mods/admins and by mods/admins themselves. I have no problem with Rusty deciding what he wants as it is his site, but this extends the power down and invites those who conspire to get more of what they want.

I am against having a voting system, as it is always manipulated one way or another. I do however want country flags to be shown.

It has massively improved the site for me so far. I think the same needs to be added for entire threads.
