There's a great amount of posts here, and when I joined, why I truly enjoy Phuks, is because people tend to post with care and diligence. Most of the Front page is very very interesting in a natural eclectic manner (including the posters as well, people take their turn a bit here). It seems each phuker is in agreement that quality is much more important and so we pursue interesting stuff and never pollute.

We have no down vote culture. That is amazing. The only posts I've seen negative were actual marketing or spamming and what not, and that isn't very often.

On to what we shouldn't become: VOAT

One of the biggest problems with voat is that there are power users and an alt army that'll down vote you, so if someone really dislikes your post, they can sign in multiple accounts and down vote the same comment or post. I think we shouldn't ever encourage alts here. that's one of the SBBH issues that makes them look like lonely people trying to control.... I don't know... the free speech they think the people they silence... have. And power posting... wtf would that do for a community that loves quality like thegrittypast and such... I'd rather encourage more LPs in here than the internet point whores.

Just shooting an idea out there:

Only the devs should have alts for testing and making nice with us. There's no reason anyone should be able to have two, or whatever number of accounts. Post points could be limited daily. Boom, no worry about post whores that "explode" like gabara, dietcockhead1 and so forth on voat. Make a NO PORN policy, if you don't have one. that alone would keep away degenerate thoughts when thinking about phuks.

To keep yourselves here while adding more to the platform is a pickle. but possible. A Possible Pickle. if you will.

One suggestion I would have for Phuks that I think would be helpful ... don't allow anon subs or anon user inputs. If someone can't feel free to use their username, or even an alt, then they aren't here to add anything. An anon sub may have a legit use in one out of a thousand instances ... but is that one instance worth the trolls taking advantage of hiding behind their mommies skirts ... I don't think so.

that's something weird I noticed on voat... I don't understand the purpose of that other than a safe space for trolls.... which is some other tier of weirdness

Agree, that's all they are. It gives an anon troll the ability to personally attack other users at will. Gutless wonders who would never say the same stuff it they had to put a name to it.

I second this.
In theory they have uses, but in practice I've never seen them used in a positive way.
