  • Not wanting people to downvote what they don’t agree with
  • Easily consider things as brigading and vote manipulation
  • Easy censorship on specific subjects (including anti AI even though anti AI people are annoying from time to time)
  • Fear of not being able to criticize db0’s administration

    Also one of the YPTB mods is in a group with like 3 others who all:

    Flood user modlogs with unfounded accusations of vote manipulation and trolling.

    Think that people browsing All should knoweth size and history of every community before downvoting.

    Take downvoting very personally.

        Off the top of my head.

        unruffled at dbzero hypes up the conspiracy that everyone who gets banned for vote manipulation/whatever deserves it. I think they posted something about the brigade menace and treat a handful of down votes on something as the end of the world.

        cryptagion at dbzero does mass bans for one or a few down votes

        mystic mushroom at dbzero does mass bans for one or a few down votes

        Also jet at hackertalks does mass bans for one or a few down votes

        Think there was one other too but can’t remember their name. The complaint is that they don’t understand what lurkers are (vote but don’t comment) or that people might browse all and not care about AI but down vote something because it is awful. Then they make ridiculous accusations and accuse anyone who disagrees with them of being a troll.

        If they just banned down votes and banned anyone who down voted with the reason ‘down votes not allowed’ then they would not be getting the widespread negative reaction that they are getting.
