Re^2: RFC: Hide Very Bad Answers From Visitors

I never use down-votes for simple disagreement, that's where I use non-votes.

IMHO down-votes are meant for inappropriate content or behavior.

It's the equivalent of throwing eggs, not the opposite of applauding.

For me this patch is just a variant of the "reap"-consideration, which always existed (IIRC) and isn't censoring either because you can always log in and read the original posting.

For me this patch is just a variant of the "reap"-consideration This is exactly why I'm very ambivalent about this change. We already have a process in place for removing nodes from the public eye, and this adds a second way that bypasses the established process.	[reply]

Yep we should wait and see. At the moment it's hard to say how the dynamic goes. But I'm expecting less reaps in the future. And I think it depends a lot on the decision algorithm. What I don't like is to have to separate entities for similar functionality, which raises the software complexity even more...

Says you, nobody, speaking for most users. No support, no identity, no citations, plus a sloppy comparison of unique v most.	[reply]
