It also escapes me as to why it took 2 years to do something... a cynical sort might imagine that recent website censorship has them spooked - hence the willingness to foster a healthier range of opinions.

As I see it, the only way to "allow unpopular opinions while preventing comment spam" is to either remove the voting system entirely, basically turning the site into an imageboard, or get a new batch of users...

I don't think removing the voting system entirely is necessary. I put in my two cents here. As for the users, I guess time will tell. If they implement something fair I think it's clearly going to take a while until the culture improves, if it ever does. Fortunately that leaves a niche for phuks once the perfect new website design goes live and you hit the big-time.

I like the reply you got on that comment. Pretty much sums up the attitude there. No attempt was made to address anything you said, you were just discredited for being a user someone doesn't like.

Well, from Crensch I expect nothing less... he's such a caricature villain - I seriously suspect he's a paid strawman.
