So you're going to allow brigading? If a larger sub like FatPeopleHate with 31,000 users decide to fuck with a smaller sub, like FatPeopleAcceptance with 100 subs, you're going to allow them to do that?
Because that is what ProtectVoat did to /v/Chicago and there has been zero repercussions of that. Once CANCEL-CAT-FACTS made his post in ProtectVoat about what the mod of /v/Chicago had done (even though there were zero rules stating what he did was wrong), he had gotten brigaded by numerous users from that sub. Those individuals hadn't participated in the sub prior to that. Including one or more people who repeatedly created accounts to avoid bans with the sold purpose to force through harassment and intimidation what they wanted (again, despite there being absolutely no written rules or guidelines for that mod to know what he did was wrong).
And on that note, what about ban evasions?
Also, it seems completely unfair to WSIMBR (cough) that you're defining these rules after the fact of applying them against him. I would encourage you to look up 'ex post facto' laws. That was convicting a person of a crime one day, and the next day actually making what they did a crime
That's not "brigading" obviously people who frequent certain subs feel the same way about certain issues and may voat the same way. You're basically saying people subbed to some verses shouldn't be allowed to voat how they want lest someone else do the same.
I think posts saying "go to this thread and voat like this" should be discouraged. But not removed. This ain't reddit. Anyway I didn't see anything like that in your examples.

That exactly is brigading. If someone in FPH posts something like, "That douchebag mod of FPA has a new fattty girlfriend." And the members of that sub, without ever having stepped foot in FPA prior, flood that sub with posts and comments attacking that person and the sub ... that is brigading. Brigading doesn't need to be explicitly commanded in order for it to be brigading.

You're going beyond trying to censor what people say and even censor how they vote.
Screw off back to reddit with that.
