Boy did this post on old Voat turn out to be prophetic regarding Poal.

Pretty funny how that turned out. I've been banned from poal chat over a thousand times now.

Nigger, getting YEETed from PoleChat is the only thing that sustains you these days

One of those "damage control" moments, eh?

I spent two days deleting all my posts and comments after the second -100 from the AOU kid. Then I never went back. I've never gone back to support a site that bans or threatens to ban my account, because they can foad.

I saw that and went ... "Wow!"

Same reaction - dangus being a poalswallowing faggot just warms the piss in my heart.

NorthSeaPagan and tokui...two of oldvoat's most notorious pedophiles. I wonder if they've been raped to death by HIV niggers yet. We can only hope.

[ - ] bobdole9 2 points 1.3 yearsDec 23, 2022 11:53:59 ago (+2/-0)

At least somebody tried to warn us.

Wonder what happened to NorthSeaPagan...only person I saw defending the ability to marry 9-12 year olds habitually.

changed his name to paul_neri and picked up some alts as well, uncledoug, gowithit etc

Not really. I don't think the downvote policy has anything to do with poal being lame.

It's lame because it's lame.

There's nothing wrong with attempting to use downvotes for a specific purpose (actual spam,etc) other than the fact that some people really really hate that and need to fight with points and group consensus enough to get riled up and post on other unrelated websites about it.

[ - ] uvulectomy 1 point 1.3 yearsDec 23, 2022 18:54:07 ago (+1/-0)

It's lame because AOJew is a micromanaging, thin-skinned kike who can't handle the slightest bit of criticism, and he lies like paul_neri's mom.

[ - ] SecretHitler 1 point 1.3 yearsDec 23, 2022 19:01:25 ago (+1/-0)

But still, who cares though? This isn't poal. Bitching about other racist sites was definitely NOT the part of old voat that anyone loved.

[ - ] we_kill_creativity [op] 0 points 1.3 yearsDec 24, 2022 07:32:09 ago (+0/-0)

This isn't old Voat. At the time of old Voats end there were two clear options for being it's successor: talk and poal. That's why it's relevant. That history is now a part of our community's DNA.

It's interesting to me that a user was able to call out a lot of Poal's flaws way in advance. Perhaps that will be useful info in case such a situation arises again.

[ - ] SecretHitler 0 points 1.3 yearsDec 24, 2022 11:06:32 ago (+0/-0)

was able to call out a lot of Poal's flaws

He didn't though. He only said they don't allow downvotes and said why he doesn't like that policy. I didn't leave poal because of the downvotes, and only a couple people seem to care about that. We can, in fact downvote here.

It's the least relevant thing to talk about. In fact I'm blocking the meanwhileonpoal sub right now so I guess something good came off this post. Thanks for the idea.

Nah, but the concept is all over the place. The tree of life is a great example.

The "tree of life" is the jewish map of the kabala.

The fuck ... /sigh I did not know this and now I lesser for not knowing it already.

Downvoting is just democratizing censorship.

There is no good solution tye content aggregator model is inherently flawed.

Downvoting is also important to shut down subversives and signal disinfo.

I downvote when I please on poal and have never been banned.

Could you use any fewer pixels?

Yes, I could have, I was attempting to get as many of the comments in as I could. I suspect you are trying to view it using your phone...?

Praise Kek, that was the day I joined Poal, and became a frfr fagg

Mathematically you don't need downvotes. You do not need them to balance things. The point of a voting system is to bring good content to the top. Upvotes allow that. If you're downvoting it either your feels were hurt and you need to go back to Reddit, or it's someone violating the rules or spamming, and you need to report them not just give them negative Internet points.

[ - ] AryanPrime 4 points 1.3 yearsDec 23, 2022 15:11:55 ago (+4/-0)

found another kike faggot larping on here

"you don't need downvotes"
"upvotes bring good content"

Not always, it let's kike filth promote their kike filth to the top with sliding

"if your downvoting either"

No kike you don't get to dictate the "reasons" people up and downvote...your opinion is not objective reality

"You need to go back to reddit"

OG goat here kike faggot, slit your own throat since you owe us some dead kikes, the holocaust didn't happen so you owe us 6 million dead kikes plus the 75 year interest compounded

"You don't need downvotes"
"if someone downvotes and violates the rules, report them, don't give them negative internet points"

So actual consequences for downvoting something? lmfao what a inbred inferior low IQ kike you are lmfao

[ - ] Prairie 0 points 1.3 yearsDec 24, 2022 00:56:21 ago (+0/-0)

No arguments = call someone a kike repeatedly.

There's value in knowing how much a community rejects something. Otherwise it just looks like a post was sort of overlooked. That's why you have weird metrics on twitter like the ratio of retweets to likes. It's why youtube started hiding downvotes. You can create a fake illusion of consensus.

That said, I don't think downvotes need to work towards a post being censored or anything like that. But if people can upvote because it makes their bellies feel warm and fuzzy and there isn't some retarded system of rules policing the reasons why people might upvote something - "oh no someone used it as an I Agree button!" - then there doesn't need to be anything like that governing the use of a downvote button.

If someone says something stupid, it's great and sometimes funny when a community is allowed to come together and show how much they hate it. Like when one of youtubes own videos was among the most downvoted videos of all time.

[ - ] Prairie 1 point 1.3 yearsDec 25, 2022 15:48:18 ago (+1/-0)

Good points. I remember one Reddit clone I think showing the totals of upvotes and downvotes, so they don't cancel each other out. Then you could see things like controversial posts where it got a lot of upvotes and downvotes, rather than them canceling and it looking like something just not very popular.

[ - ] Sector7 0 points 1.3 yearsDec 23, 2022 16:57:16 ago (+1/-1)

Downvotes are for people who should be killed in real life, but your only access to them is on the internet.
