The thing is, trolls are forum sliding by obsessively downvoting new submissions, and Voat is suffering for it. Good submissions are being disappeared from the average Voater since you guys aren't as active on the "new" submissions page as the trolls are.
I really would recommend making a concerted effort to watch over the new subs and make sure to upvote anything worthy, if only to counteract the Brock bots.
I don't really know how to tell. I mean unless they are just pushing the jew hate agenda or are just calling us retarded. That is the only way I can tell. I think it would be a big help if we were able to see who has up voted and down voted.. but ya..
I don't care about the trolls as much as I care about the truth. Just not worth the time and energy. If you want to go ahead but you're more valuable researching things that matter.
Don't waste down votes and in fact, we should ignore them and not even respond so they are basically yelling in an echo chamber like what happens to most of us at Twitter
While your idea is noble, the idea cannot possibly work, as it presupposes the same people you wish to identify will not also participate by naming well intentioned folk as shills or trolls. As someone who considers themselves a good analyst of real intent behind writing, I have seen practically every well intentioned poster, i.e., someone who actually wants very bad people to meet justice, identified at one time or another as a troll or shill by someone else. I can think of a number of members which I disagree with vehemently on certain issues labeled as trolls or shills, and yet I would not identify them as same, no matter how misguided I think they are.
Yeah.. Especially if you're talking about really intelligent "trolls" who are only trying to steer away or towards information whenever that information comes up. People can also have good and bad days. So if I'm havin a super bad day I can get into a fight with someone for no good reasons and boom. Shill.
My preferred tactic these days is to keep my mouth shut. If you believe someone is a shill they will lead you to the actual truth of the situation in 5 of their posts rather than having to sift through 50 (because they know what the truth is or whatever instructions they've been given are based off of the truth)
Its realy obvious to me who is on here, because they try to bash people straight out for their belief in Pizzagate, they cal names and degrade with fowl belittling words. They never go through any details of the Information here, and the bale after it goes any further. I think it can work if you gave me an obvious example, I will give you one. Lets stop talking about it, and do something, only the shrills and trolls will add an obvious concerned citizen. if its not obvious, than what is my friend you tell me huh???
To be candid, I don't see a lot of obvious bashing. I'm not saying it doesn't happen, it's just that I haven't seen it in an obvious way like you might have. I mean I see bashing to be sure, but not of the kind that reveals with certainty that either party is a shill in the strictest sense. People tend to run way too fast and loose with the term. Personally, I use it as seldom as possible. When I'm in doubt as to someone's real intent, I go read their posting history, samples of recent, middle, and early period, and then I form an opinion. The other thing is, even if you were successful in creating a rough list that was somewhat accurate, it's still going to contain misattributions. And further, it's apt to be obsolete within weeks. I'm not trying to knock your idea, as I'd sure like to have a way to know whose who quickly, I just don't see any practical way it can happen.
Right now I am getting down voted for sharing this, because its stupid? or because they dont want people to get together? on anything? Think about it, and look at my points, I am getting punished for thinking this stuff up.
I down vote as seldom as possible and reserve it for the most offensive of threads and posts, which yours is not remotely of the sort. Don't take it to heart, everyone gets down voted from time to time, and they appear to come in clusters, oftentimes due to mere caprice. Everyone like you who tries to help, even if not quite successful in a single instance, is appreciated.
None given! Thank you, I just noticed some of the content gets down-voted, so if the people where following your same way of thinking why would they waste their time down-voting videos and articles that are from people like myself? which by the way has amazing Pizzagate information.
Of-coarse we dont blindly down vote whatever is reported or thrown our way, ...it will be Crystal Clear the ones who need to go, if there any doubts, why would anyone do that?, You give some good points but, I think it will be fun, addicting and once started the Obvious will appear! Maybe I am asking for to much at this time. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

I just upvoted a bunch of posts, and came back to find that all my upvotes disappeared!

If you come up with any names, I'd certainly read a little of their posting history for a lark to see if the attribution corresponds.

Just as soon as another one comes my way, I will send em right back here. Cool thank you!
