Remove downvoting?
-
@PrIsMaTiSm I understand what your saying but when you engage back with people it becomes an argument so yes I would say by definition you are "arguing". If you want to be the bigger person in this situation your best option is to just lay low you dont have to reply to every comment. You respond to everyone but never with the intent to understand what they are saying but to invalidate what they have to say. You even did it with me, you replied with a response not to address much of what I said but to argue what has been done to you. I am not messaging in regards to anything that has happened to you but saying please respect this thread for what it is. I no longer wish to continue this as it is not in the topic of what this thread is about and I want to respect spooky in this situation and listen to peoples opinions on the downvote issue.
@AviCreat The downvote issue directly applies to me.
Additionally, you say I don't pay attention to what people have to say, I just argue with what they said, how can I argue what I never paid attention to? Everyone's' 'solution' is to lay low. Why on Earth would that ever be a solution? "Yeah, you know what would fix the downvote issue? Making people forget they were mad at you so you don't get downvoted." What that literally means is that its not my issue, it other peoples issue and I should stop for a while so people forget about it. Makes no sense, but then I'm expected to believe it makes sense, otherwise, take negative rep.
@j0xged3 Reddit karma doesn't have negative repercussions.
That's what we are discussing here. I'm all for keeping the downvote system, but remove the repercussions. If you want to call it a vote, fine, whatever helps you sleep at night, but I cannot think of any other platform I have ever seen that will remove you and/or privileges if people vote you out.@Flippy yes, you are correct, and yes, I started SUGGESTING that people not bump more than once every 24 hours per post to prevent spam. I never said it was a written rule, I did however repeatedly say it was a guideline that was roughly agreed upon. I don't see anyone arguing about a bump every 24 hours, I do however see complaints about bumps every 2 hours, so where is the line? That's why its a guideline, no one will get angry at you if you follow it.
I think some people took that to mean I was trying to prevent any bumps on a particular post in a 24 hour period, that is not the case. Preventing users like Crises and Minako and others who constantly bump the same post(s) over and over is the main goal. There is nothing wrong with people bumping a post they like. I do not care if 20 people bump the same post within 5 minutes. They are different people, all bumping a post because they are interested. I do however see an issue where one user will ritualistically bump the same post(s) every few hours with the belief that it will get them what they want faster. That is beyond the scope of this topic however.
@Clown Seeing the amount of flippant, rude and derogatory statements in @LizEllie's comment get upvotes from the community when I, having not done near that level, get heavily downvoted is very disheartening. Sad that you see such action warranting an upvote simply because of who it was directed to.
TL;DR Remove negative rep repercussions, and add a rule about spamming to the forum of which duration is determined via a vote post to avoid other situations such as what has happened in order to take stress off of admins and remove confusion from posters/bumpers.
Ah less than 7 minutes in and I see I have my first downvote of this comment. Hooray for making basic suggestions to better the community!

@PrIsMaTiSm I didn't say at any point that you don't read or pay attention to what people have to say I said you go out your way to invalidate what people say. So maybe you just proved your own defence there wrong. I'm telling you to lay low not just for your sake but everyone else as people just want to make an opinion here on the downvote and not have you calling them out for every little detail of what they said and making it a personal attack towards you. It's not to make people forget its to let everyone move on from this situation as I think thats best for everyone. Also this downvote issue doesnt "directly apply to you" it applies to this community as a whole. Again, please leave this thread for what it is and allow people to give their opinions of the downvote, it's their opinion you dont have to have an argument for everything everyone says.

I will no longer continue to engage with you as I feel there is no point in continuing this as it just makes you ruin your own image further. I also don't wish to continue this as this thread is for spooky to see what people think of the downvote not for us to have this kind of conversation. I wish you luck with your downvote situation and hope you enjoy your time on the forums, I dont wish for drama with you as I'm not one for that.

So you would then agree I have to first understand what they are saying in order to reply in kind? I have said many times that I have understood others' viewpoint.

This literally means that it directly applies to me, since I, like you, are part of this community.

Can we please put an end to the arguments? Let's return to sharing avatars and being friendly instead of enemies. The downvoting is staying. @PrIsMaTiSm, you have the chance to change, much like how the Godfather did. I am willing to reset your reputation to 0 as long as you cease the arguments. If you continue to receive downvotes due to the arguments after I take this step, I won't provide any further opportunities. Additionally, if I come across any unfair downvotes, I will send dms to those individuals.
DM me for any issues

honestly, that's fair. toss, PrIsMaTiSm a bone

@SpookyVersace Understood.
It would however be interesting to see what would qualify as an unfair downvote, because I know this will ultimately continue, although I will not be the one making the arguments.Resetting rep to 0 just to have it go negative as soon as even one person downvotes me, once again removing my ability to do many things on this site, doesn't seem very effective.

@SpookyVersace OI i was doing it on purpose! lol
My drops are only up for 5 days.
Don't ask me to reupload something if I look at your profile and you contributed nothing to the site. Nothing includes items that you got from someone else are are just using to leech more paid items.

@PrIsMaTiSm I will determine what qualifies as an unfair downvote. And of course your reputation will become negative as soon as someone downvotes you. That's why you should aim to receive upvotes rather than downvotes.

it’s already been changed to needing a certain reputation to downvote, what more do these people need? if anything removing the rep system at all to stop ANY drama sounds better but i don’t really care. I couldn’t care less if it stayed or goes
@yoash Agreed, needing a certain reputation definitely fixes a lot of the issue.

down voting sounds like a good solution but sounds like it would just end up like removing disliking from YouTube,
it's an outlet for somebody's negativity and if they cand express their annoyance with a little downvote then they are just going to go straight to the comments, by removing negative feedback it increases people being even more annoyed that they can display that negativity with a little button,making it for users who are more frequently on the site sounds like the better option

It has been closed for a long time, and players are waiting every day to welcome its return! Please don't let this technology disappear!
My suggestion:
To avoid proliferation, a membership system can be implemented like other websites, where non members can only download public models and have a certain daily download limit.
2. Many Avatars are downloaded by players from different countries, and if they are from different countries, their social circles are different, which does not hinder the interests of the authors.
3. To avoid author complaints, an online application channel can be developed to prove that you are the author through pictures. Then the author's model will never be uploaded again. -
