Hey Gang,

I’m seeing an uptick in downvoting to, I presume, express displeasure. Please don’t. If a topic doesn’t speak or appeal to you, move along, please don’t downvote it. Please use the downvote button for content that doesn’t belong here because it is inappropriate.

Thank you and game on!

    If you disagree, I think that’s what the reply button is for-- state your disagreement and have a discussion (keeping it civil, of course). Just driving by and downvoting does not add anything, in my opinion.

      That’s a nice thought but you know already, from the post you created being downvoted, that system does not work. The basis of your argument is that people will follow the rules, which as a mod you know doesn’t happen. I offered a solution, and you offered to just carry on the same way. The real issue is we do not have separate “agree/disagree” and “relevant/not relevant” distinctions.

      You don’t have to take my solution, but you must accept that your solution is already not working.
