So, I went and poked them to see the response.
I haven't been there in a while, so wasn't sure what, if any, reaction I would get.

Turned out pretty reasonable (so far).
I triggered a couple, but got lols and reasonable comments from most.

people should not go around stirring up shit for personal entertainment.

this is why we can't have nice things.

someone makes a nice thing, and someone thinks it's funny to go screw with it.

stirring up shit for personal entertainment.

I think you're misreading the intentions. All I am trying to stir up is conversation. Take a look at the post, I don't think it comes across as malicious. Does it?
I've put a lot of time into Voat over the years, and not once has it ever had bad intentions.

I think it is fair for me to share a little of the credit/blame(along with many others) for how it came to be.
I wish well for the site.

unfortunately I have run into a number of people that thought that stress testing a site by stirring up shit was the best was to "improve it"

Idiots that they were.

so I am slightly touchy on the subject.

On the basis of "this is why we can't have nice things" via "oops I broke it, sorry"

Well, I am not that type of idiot.
I'm an entirely different kind of idiot.

I wasn't 'stress-testing', just checking the water temperature.
By Voat standards that doesn't rate as stress, drama, or of any real significance.
