RE: A Flag is a Legitimate Market Expression (it also comes with consequences).
Not a big fan of anyone claiming to be an anarchist who runs for president. (contradiction in terms)
I think bots should be banned as some are using them to flag others out of existence, as well as up vote themselves while claiming to care about the community. I also think the community is severely lacking in the support of those flagged to death through the use of bots.
I think flagging is a relatively useless tool as the self voting whales are not bothered by it, and the rest will not last anyway if they continue to produce bad content. I think silence is a much better tool to curb bad content. Just like market conditions; if no one buys your product, you will stop producing.
You may be right man.
I also think that the trending page should be based on views/comments/activity and not on $! Yesterday I found another post with 17 views and 144 up votes.
I never look at trending other than introduceyourself trending. The rest of it and even most of the introduceyourself? It's not worth the time. Occasionally there's a rare jewel in trending introduceyourself though, and that's worth the sorting for sure!
