  • I can’t even think of how someone would have “sex in front of their kids”. Sure, sex when kids are say in the next room, or in the same house seems harmless enough.

    I imagine that OP meant a scenario like, “hey kids, don’t come in our room without knocking, because we’re going to have sex” instead of “this is how you give a BJ. Let me demonstrate on ur dad. Watch n learn bitch”. If they meant the latter, then… uhhh yeah that’s fucked up.












  • I think disabling downvotes totally for the user’s content by default would be a bad idea, because it is important for a user to know if what they are saying is unpopular.

    Here’s an approach I have taken for my app (for all posts and comments).

    • If downvotes are <= 5, downvotes show as 0.
    • If downvotes <= 5%, downvotes show as 0.

    Remember, the reasoning for this is a mere hypothesis and not results obtained from an experiment.

    The 5 percent rule aims to prevent fringe opinions from downvoting. This solves issues like, “why do I have 3 downvotes on a picture of my cute puppy?”.

    The 5 downvotes rule prevents downvoting bias. I have observed this happening on Reddit a lot. If a comment has 3 upvotes and 2 downvotes, people tend to downvote more (just because of the downvote counts and not the content itself). 2 downvotes in a 5 total votes sample size is too small to make any decision about the quality of content.

    In my opinion, cases like these are where the downvotes serve more as a mental health destroyer rather than decentralised content moderation.

    So to answer your question, I think having the current as default would be better, I.e., option “Show”. However, if you’re open to refine this even further, I would suggest the 5-5% idea.



  • I swear it is not mine. I SWEAR, OKAY?!!! Don’t look at me. I DO NOT and I mean I DO NOT want strong, muscle-y arms carrying me, wedgie-ing me, throwing me on the bed as he likes, OKAY??? I AM NOT INTO THAT STUFF. I DO NOT swoon to the point of fainting when I see a hot, muscled dude with a kind face, deep, but kind voice and that musky scent. I am NOT into that.
