I posted The Builder thread about a week ago. It has deep significance in life as a whole, give it a read if you haven't.
The past few days/weeks, and slightly below the radar of most, a Voat civil war was in the making. Long story short, because of incredible people, it appears that the earth won't be scorched (this may not age well ;) ).
So I'm going to highlight those I've noticed building instead of destroying. Man is meant to build, to create, it's God-Like and of the highest order.
Most Recent Notable Builders
@kevdude is a builder. He exemplified wisdom and maturity while still standing up for his underlying principles. Builder!
@srayzie is a builder. She has shown assertiveness and stood a firm ground despite facing a potential countless enemy. She has also created and maintained a subverse that her users highly value for nearly 1.5 years. Builder!
@virge is a builder. He? saw a gap in Voat's functionality and fulfilled it with the "What you missed on Voat today" submissions. Many users very much like what he has started. Builder!
I think I'm going to create a Builder badge to start highlighting those of us that build instead of destroy. This badge will come with special perks because builders deserve to be rewarded.
Let's hope the builders remain builders and continue building.
Edit
So I looked up the downvotes on this submission out of curiosity. Most all are destroyers. Many of which will be banned shortly for previous vote manipulation. Interesting isn't it that those that abuse Voat also hate seeing this thread.

Makes me feel guilty for being a lurker.

Build something then. Doesn't have to be online or at Voat.
Make life, improve your environment, create new bonds... Building can take many forms.

A possible example of many forms of building under those terms? Combines work both here and outside of voat.
Been investigating a 30 year cold murder case for over a year, trying to be a one man army getting the truth out (digging, memes) about one of the most heinous yet underreported crimes Hollywood pedophile rings have ever done. Found proof that her death was NOT a murder suicide.
This story has started to spread and take root around Valentines Day when a youtube video covering some of the memes I created showed up. Got over 40000 views in a week (I suspect there’s suppression).

you're a good leader Putt.
Jeww ago
No he’s not. At all. He’s vague with a god complex. Saying he’s ready to ban people who even downvoted his new class system post. You’re also gay.

Putt...
Did I just hear you say you're giving badges for those who MVGA?
onikage ago
Thanks Putt, I meant specifically regarding voat.
I'm doing well IRL, but that just means I don't have the time to contribute much here besides the odd comment. I upvote good content, and downvote the trash. So at least that is something, i suppose.

Yeah, don't worry about it. Voat is a sandbox anyway

Huh. Your comments don't seem to odd! No more than anyone else.
onikage ago
Odd, meaning irregular or at least infrequent.

Oh come on! It was a joke! I was just playing around with you.
I hope you have a great night and I hope you laugh a little!
onikage ago
I got you. Lol
