it seems like it'll get bigger though. and it'd be easy to fix, you could just mess with the downvoat cost for people with high karma on dead threads

nathanwblair

if you think it's worth it, i'll have a shot at writing it

nathanwblair

@kevdude could you make it a variable time frame? or just disable downvoats on dead threads for just admins?

gopluckyourself

da fuck man yeah we comin

Azagthoth

Agreed. Reminds me of lefty-psycophants crawling reddit accounts for personal history, work history, racial slurring, etc to exploit and blackmail. Its a cunts tactic at subversion. People dont realize how easy it is to piece puzzle-pieces together and form a narrative around someones online habits. Kinda fucked up.

Phobos_Mothership

how can i get to your full comments list?

Millennial_Falcon

Ohhhhh, OK.

Kwijibo

You can't send a private message. You can make comments on posts.

Millennial_Falcon

Not with CCP below -100. Fortunately, back in the positive now, thanks.

LostandFound

Oh hey I just reread your sticky, I have a few sourced nuggets for your list! 1. Want to see Tony Podesta hosting a party in his own home for disturbed young person photographer Anna Gaskel in 2004... with James Alefantis in attendance ?? http://archive.is/oemQA , or Alfantis as washington life used to spell it.

Also did you know that when david brock was starting Media Matters he got Money from George Soros and floor space and connections from John Podestas 501 3c Center for American Progress. https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/1478825 . Soros was funding both entities at that time.

Millennial_Falcon

No, I wasn't aware of those. Will copy and paste to review later. Thanks.

This is both hilarious and good signal that we are playing by an open rulebook. Hope the neg points is sorted out. I also consider it a good signal that shills are working with limited tools to act, making them less effective and more visible than on reddit.

@Millenial_Falcon the post is deleted - could you somehow hide it off the v/pizzagate front? also a max negative vote # combined with disabling negative voating on dead threads would 100% fix the problem!

Millennial_Falcon

disabling negative voating on dead threads would 100% fix the problem!

@kevdude @Crensch @kingkongwaswrong @Phobos_Mothership @wecanhelp

What do you guys think about implementing this, or some variation, until admins fix this problem?

wecanhelp

I think currently they can only go back a week, any downvoat attempts beyond that point would result in an error. I know because I ran into that issue trying to counterattack the known downvoaters. In our case, since we post at least one comment per every submission removed, a week's worth of comments is more than enough for a successful attack, and it gets easier and easier as we're never brought back to our original levels by the community.

nathanwblair

@wecanhelp the very definition of a removed submission is a dead thread !

Which brings me to my original proposal: disabling negative voating on dead threads would 100% fix the problem!

wecanhelp

My bad, I interpreted the word dead as inactive , not deleted . Okay, so can we currently do this in any way, or we need to submit a pull request to Voat with this feature implemented?

nathanwblair

@kevdude seems to think it a bad idea - how about disabling downvoating on deleted threads after 12 hours instead of 7 days? They're usually dead by then anyway

Phobos_Mothership

I don't know about this, in my experience every time they have done this to me they haven't needed to go back more than 10 days. Did they downvote all of your comments or just more recent ones?

Millennial_Falcon

They can't go back more than 7 days. 7 days is the limit for downvoting.

Phobos_Mothership

Yeah, how long before a thread is 'dead' or inactive? if it's like 24 hours or so I could see this helping a great deal with shill downvoting. If it ends up being close to 7 days it probably won't help much though, considering they already can't go back further than that. Anyone know the answer to this?

Millennial_Falcon

Apparently kevdude things this is a bad idea, because the only way they are able to deal with users like Amalek is to downvote-brigade and force him to make new accounts. So, nevermind, I guess.

abortionburger

BRUTAL.

abortionburger

Did you delete your falcon account? I was just upvoating everything and suddenly I got an error.

webofslime

I have been downvoted into oblivion, as well. I made a similar post, but the mods deleted it for violating rule #4.

Any help is appreciated.

LostandFound

I thought the max ping was 4 im not sure if they will get them, though im not here long.

LostandFound

lol starting to enjoy this, you know you have hit a nerve when they go full frontal. Crawled last few days of your comments and upvoated where appropriate, you will be back in no time.

Millennial_Falcon

Thanks!

Kwijibo

if you post a comment we could up voat it.

DustyRadio

Wow, I haven't even been able to get enough points to let me have a downvote function yet. How do the shills get the points to be allowed to downvote?

Azagthoth

Just say wew lad or wew vlad if its russian and farm easy retard-votes from the donald cretins.

garlicbulb

I posted before that this is a fault in the system, and should be fixed by admins/mods etc why has it not been fixed?

ThruTheHaze

Ya i saw. Can't get too worried though. I mean, it shouldn't be too hard to get back in the game.

ThruTheHaze

Was just asking a question. Ya that blows. Interesting that it's 8 every time. Should be someway that mods could talk to admins or something to get you back in the game if it that obvious.

itrunshot

I'll save what few upvoats I have for informative posts, not to help out the mods.

militant

Or perhaps this is a charade to make us believe that you are important, relevant and honest.

ThruTheHaze

Was looking through your history...where did they hit you?
