Vote manipulation is getting more common. Some recent examples:
While the accounts were banned, the malicious voting activity stuck around.
Should admins have the ability to discard votes, and if so, which admins? Should community mods have that ability? Can you think of any ways that tools like this could be abused?
Who said you have to participate? Not interested? Move on.
What is the virtue in liking or disliking a thing you’re not going to otherwise engage with? Why should others dictate what you are more likely to actually see?
Who said they weren’t interested? Your entire premise is based on them being interested.
So again, what’s the virtue in everybody having to comment even if they don’t have some substantive to say?
I don’t even know how you came to this conclusion. If you’re not interested in the discussion, and you’re not going to participate in it, why should you get to influence how others may see the content by voting on it and affecting its visibility? That’s the premise.
Buddy I don’t care how hard you’re trying I’m not going to let you move the goal posts. Answer the original question.
I’m sorry you feel that way, but since that isn’t what I said, implied, or alluded to, and what you asked is literally the exact opposite of what I was suggesting, your question is fucking stupid and maybe you should learn how to read English if you’re going to join in a conversation written in it.
