A butt hurt Sal would be my guess.

i don't rate videos, you could sk an admin. you could also use this to whittle it down with this https://ethercalc.net/ko16wcjhnxxk. it goes user, points, and then the difference compared to the previous

This is interesting. I've seen it once before and forgot about it. I'll go the other way. Voting is useful cause it says, that was good, post more like this, or conversely, that was terrible, post something more interesting next time. If this tool shows that someone on here is consistently outright one-starring someone's videos they should at least get a talking to and if it persists a couple week's suspension. If there's somebody on here you can't be objective with, simply walk away (don't vote) is what I'm agreeing with.

Or they should at least comment and say why it is shit, so we can attack him, in the meanwhile dan acts like he has not been on this page yet and does not know who i was pointing at, even though he lives on spiked.
If you DV tell them why.
And actually the voting up is for "other ppl should see this"
Voting down is "Don't bother watching this shit"
I bet my left nut it was dan

Yup. A fan overall of voting cause it helps modulate quality. eg. I don't like the idea of people just posting any random crap they saw in their YouTube feed multiple times a day. Definitely like your idea of a downvote triggering a mandatory comment dialogue!

Extra boxes at the bottom of the comments for those that voted. shows comment why they voted and rating they gave, but then certain ppl vote with sock accounts and we are back to 0

"Definitely like your idea of a downvote triggering a mandatory comment dialogue!"
I disagree. We don't need parents.
"Or they should at least comment and say why it is shit, so we can attack him"
It's because of intentions like that is why additional moderation isn't recommended. With that statement he said out loud what I have known for years.
If you can't take a downvote you should swallow a revolver.
Disciplining people for exercising their right to a democratic process for any reason or no reason is destructive.
The site is fine, we are not likely to be flourishing in the thousands ever. But we get a new person every now and again because they decide this is the right place for them.
Also, my two cents. Skeptoid should be reinstated, I was highly amused watching him intellectually brow beat our regulars for their stupidity. I miss it, and I feel more was lost than gained with his dismissal from our discussions.

"Definitely like your idea of a downvote triggering a mandatory comment dialogue!". Oops. I certainly misspoke here and glad you're calling that to attention. Not a downvote (on someone's comment) but rather a 1-star review on a content submission. I think feedback there could be warranted.
(Old Spike)
I mean that too. Everything is fine the way it is. Everyone gets there fair share of votes with comments, votes without. People are free to share their opinion, withhold it, just as they provide their chosen rating or with hold it.
IF There was to be a change. I would suggest 95% of the full duration of a video should be consumed before a rating is permitted. If people are going cry about something then they should suffer through it.
If not, then everything is just fine as is.
Once again, your feelings shouldn't be lit aflame from a drive by downvote. Most of us usually know what it's about, roughly from who, and what kind of content gets such treatment. Is there really a deep seated need to revenge post over someone compelled to explain why they don't like something? If compelled will they give you a genuine answer?
Just want to know "who it is?" - Why? Will it make anyones life more complete to uncover the Spiked deep state coalitions?
Hooray, I uncovered the perpetrators disturbing my morning poop.
Most of the time if people have a strong enough opinion or something quippy to say their own ego will demand of them to get busy on that keyboard anyway.
Also. Bob can you please explain to me how to space my paragraphs? Since a couple updates ago hitting "enter enter" is just pushing 1 line down and creating a wall of texts out of my posts. Whilst within the "preview" window the format is as intended.
Edit: Nvm
"Shift enter...." Why?

I've never had any beef with Danman (despite his hot takes), so I have my doubts about that hypothesis.
If it ain't Sal, then my second guess would be Evulva, as that professional cat herder still lurks here (but it should be noted that I ain't interested in a witch hunt; just send me an Arby's coupon if I guess correctly).
Whoever the new Downvote Fairy is, it doesn't really matter. Most of the folks that spend any amount of time on this site know I post quality content, so entertainment deprivation levels are likely minimal.
(Site Administrator)
Ok good. I literally can't remember the last time you posted so glad this isn't discouraging you in any way.
Searching for 'water off a duck's back gif' turns up trannys for some reason - closest match I could find, but you get me.
But 'the new downvote fairy' might want to rein it in.
(Old Spike)
You never struck me as the lying type so consider the accusation formally retracted.
(Old Spike)
i'm wondering about the reasoning
scenario a. you picked me at random.
scenario b. you picked me because of past conversations
scenario c you posted a video i posted a couple of weeks ago and you figured if anyone did it. it would be me
(Site Administrator)
Maybe look inward if you're wondering why you came to mind. Now how bout you accept what's near to an apology as you're going to get, graciously, eh.
Edit: and oh shit! there it is! nice post, Sal!
(Old Spike)
"Scenario B" is the correct answer.
Which video of yours did I repost? I haven't been on this site for a few.

More please!
