So maybe mod posts that attack other users?

You're a mod, making and enforcing rules to protect a broader community should be the bare minimum. Which instances don't allow downvotes? I have downvoted .ml content on my .ml account and this one, and you can definitely see those downvotes. Sounds like you made that up.

Either use the upvotes as a metric or admit the screenshots don't represent the broader community. You're waffling back and forth on this one.

Hard disagree. You made an echo chamber for all your bad faith arguments.

    Why should I stop users from attacking others? Tankies do it all the time in their spaces, but you're not advocating for them to stop, you're in no position to call me bad faith until you do.

    Hexbear. If you don't know what instance is what, you shouldn't be arguing any of this.

    This isn't an echo chamber either, Tankies are even given special privileges that other users don't get. You can even check modlog to verify this.

    Tell you what: if you're honest and in good faith, go make an account, post in Hexbear's /c/slop, and tell them to stop making fun of people and using blanket statements.

    I didn't tell you to stop users from attacking each other, I said you should moderate your community to prevent unfounded insults and brigading. The people in the screenshot didn't do anything wrong.

    I do tell users to stop attacking others, often, especially in the communities I made.

    Hexbear is just one instance. And... weird? I've downvoted and seen downvotes on hexbear communities I engage in. As far as I know, you should be able to see them, too, if your instance allows downvotes. So, yes, I do know what I'm talking about. Do you?

    But, come on. This is circular logic and you know it. You first argued that seventeen upvotes was indicative of a community's values, didn't agree that the most upvoted comments in a thread would better represent a community, and continue to say your community represents "tankie behavior."

    Now you're telling me to check the modlog for some ambiguous priviledge? How exactly do I... check their priviledge?

    Your comprehension is low, and I can't be bothered explaining things to you.

    Tell you what: if you’re honest and in good faith, go make an account, post in Hexbear’s /c/slop, and tell them to stop making fun of people and using blanket statements.

    I don't need to do any of those things to argue in good faith. That wouldn't prove or disprove anything I've said, and if so, I'd like to know how.

    Furthermore, we're talking about this post and this thread. Why do you keep changing the subject and putting the onus on me?

    If he doesn't change the topic to something else, he doesn't have an answer for you. This is his echo chamber, this is his space to make up rules of how you can't question his actions without his possee grouping up like Hexbear and Lemmygrad.

    I wouldn't expect anyone who runs a community like this to be a healthy, balanced individual in the first place. I've said my piece and now I plan to move on.

    You've spent the past four days talking about me. I don't think you know what a healthy, balanced individual is.

    You mean I spent about a minute, total, responding to this fine user — because I'm polite. Now you're jumping in after I said I was moving on.

    Sounds like you're a little miffed.

    no, both of you have been circlejerking about me for the past few days.

    Yes, I know. Why don't you point out where I circle-jerked? I think you're not linking to my comments directly because two users engaged me on a comment unrelated to you, and I was dismissive.
