"no one is really innocent"

Nice way to endear your users. downvoted

VOATs credibility is already gone. I don't come here to discuss with people. I don't come here to read about people's diverse opinions on multiple subjects. No. This site is good for one thing and one thing only:

Sucking Trumps Dick.

()()::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::D ~ ~ ~

Now go ahead retards! Call me a leftist. Fuckin braindead imbeciles.

Hurting me yo, some subverses work completely off non archiving logics(v/diaries). Love a challenge though, even though this challenge seems Reddity. Step on my toes any harder though you may break them…

You know exactly what I'm referencing.

Then reference it.

You've had conversations with me about it in the past.

Actually I've had to deal with you screaming in an autistic fit and it clogged up my notifications.

nor am I going to autisticly scour your post history just to find out in the end that you deleted the post I'm looking for.

I left it up for a reason, I'm finding it right now but again somebody is screeching at me across the site so I keep getting interrupted. Gee, I wonder who's doing that.

EDIT: I'll reference my other post here where I shut you down.

Not once have I called for his impeachment. I said if it is necessary then it needs to happen, because shitheads like you who can't go five minutes without ardently worshiping somebody would throw a fit.

Key word though. If.

IF.

IF.

If it's necessary.

Nowhere have I said that it is necessary. This is why you don't deserve respect or an argument, you stupid, shilling faggot.

I'll quote the really relevant part again:

This is why you don't deserve respect or an argument, you stupid, shilling faggot.

You mean your SCP farm?

I could not care less if my points there count elsewhere.

Where you disable people from downvoating you?

I disabled it because I knew you were coming to mass downvoat me. You and people like you are the reason why I bumped the CCP limit up from 0 to 50 to 100. You are literally proving my point right now and demonstrating the reason why I have that limit. Slow clap.

You don't care about free speech, you care about having your safe space.

I have called it a hugbox many times, so no I don't want you downvoating everything so my stories get buried you butthurt ctrl-right SJW. I wouldn't have bothered if I knew you wouldn't angrily screech about the same shit over and over and over and tag me all over the site and send me private messages.

This Jixijenga faggot is a grade A shill who calls for impeaching Trump

No, you're the shill and provide proof that I called for impeaching Trump. Go ahead, bitch. I'll wait.

EDIT: Too late, shit-for-brains. Here's a link to the post where I tracked it all down and prove you wrong. Nice attempt at virtue signalling though, you ctrl-right nancy fuck.

He's just here to stir shit and troll people

You've accused me of this several times but most of my submissions are at my "SCP farm" (whopping twenty points from that by the way) and I routinely focus on just that because it's my primary reason for being here.

of course he would be upset if we actually did something to make this a stronger website.

Hmm. Let's see. Platform for free speech deleting people's posts for arbitrary, bullshit reasons... hmm, sounds like another site we're all familiar with.

Yeah, let's totally be like reddit. Bravo, dumbass. Are you sure you're on the right site?

If you had banned downvoting like I suggested 2 years ago, that would have solved half your problem in one click.

If you dont like someones comments simply block them. If that poster is that bad them most other people will block them also.

I think some people should be given some sort of protection from brigaders using underhanded ways to mass downvote a users entire post history simply becuase they disagreed with them on one occasion.

As for.the vote farming.. ill.leave that entirely.to you as I dont have anything more to add to it.

Not a fan of this though:

HI! IT LOOKS LIKE YOU ARE NEW AROUND HERE. Welcome to Voat!

The number of votes you can place is tied to your comment contribution points.

You are currently limited to 10 votes per 24 hours.

Every time someone upvotes one of your comments, you gain 1 comment contribution point.

You currently have 5 comment contribution points.

Tip: a good way to earn more contribution points is to take part in discussions or say hi in v/introductions.

This requirement was established as a measure to encourage new members to get involved and participate in discussions.

Not all of us can contribute to a conversation, especially if the thread is somewhat old (give this an example, too) and all statements have already been said. Putting a 10 vote limit in 24 hours just makes it discouraging. The only reason I'm commenting this, is this is all I can do. Maybe cut it down to 12 hours, or 20 votes. It's a bit harsh in my opinion.

Sleepless - https://quikrmovies.to/sleepless/?ref=sonic

Fucking love you goat bastards.

Keep up the good work. Reddit has become an astroturf cesspool after the 2016 election. With careful design, hopefully Voat can be more resilient.

I think its dumb I can't downvote stuff I don't like because a comment point is low but my points are high or some other nonsense.

Anyone else having issues with Twitter/Reddit? (10:00am est)

Hows about you stop purporting to to be about free-speech, & stop censoring comments that don't agree with your world view. You are not an alternative, just another bunch of money-hungry fucks jumping on an opportunity.

Shame on you.

Nice post friends it is very good for me and my business. I am a hot Vellore escorts girl looking for some fun and romance with guys who are in search of a girl that can be their perfect source of entertainment.

@PuttItOut - 2 more "obvious alt accounts":
https://voat.co/user/ChaosGoat_000
https://voat.co/user/ChaosGoat_001

Thank you @PuttItOut

Awesome! Seeing some of this stuff over on /v/pizzagate

fuck those moderators on that place, they should be wiped clean and Gracie and Titus Frost should be the mods lol

You don't get SCP upvoting submissions do you? Because if you do... GUILTY. I upvote a lot of comments in several news subverses and v/museum. (I LOVE THAT SUBVERSE.)

I actually don't do anything for the points except for when I joined and you go to v/welcome. I don't downvote often but when I do... well I do.

So, why are people collecting SCP/CCP? I think I just lost a ton of SCP but I am not even sure because honestly I just don't understand why people want it so bad and don't look at the numbers closely. But I seem to remember my SCP being around 14k and no doubt that came from a lot of posting to v/medicalresearch which I wish others liked enough to post in.

It's true, I barely understand SCP and CCP.

None of the accounts that brigaded me for 5000 points got banned. I said you are srs. This proves it.

Defined "brigading."

Would you say that Voat manipulation really grinds your gears?

Look into FPH's brigading tactics if you're serious about stopping the problem. If a subreddit is going to be public and endorsed by the website itself, in the advertising box, at least have the kahunas to stop them from using brigades to prevent people from arguing any sort of point. I don't care if people ban me from that pathetic corner of Voat, but they shouldn't be able to use downvoats to silence me based solely on disagreement.

Keep it real my nigga

So they take the time to make multiple different voat accounts and then nurture those accounts so that they are at 100+ CCP so they can then downvote 10 at a time per account? Who the fuck has the time for this shit? Then again, it's probably easy to get the comment points in some of the lamer subverses. GET 'EM, SHURRIFF!

A pissy user who seemingly hates logical questions, has downvoted my post and comments so that I'm below the 100 comment points threshold and cannot downvote things myself. A thinly veiled attempt at silencing me. A couple of upvotes would help greatly. You can check my comment/submission history to verify what I'm talking about. Thanks, all. P.S. I was above the 100 threshold at 110 or more, for a couple weeks until the past two hours of interacting with said douche. I don't delight in giving downvotes (again, check my profile to verify), but I also do not delight in being silenced and not having the right to downvote, which I've earned over time.

Is this the reason that some of my upvoats disappeared from my count? I dropped several points for no reason that I can find, today. Since I prefer to lurk often and comment infrequently, this was a bit disconcerting. My CPP is already pretty slim because I prefer to lurk. :(

Going to a users' history and down voting everything they've ever done.

"There is a new, old sheriff in town" ftfy. Keep up the good work as usual.

See that is the thing if they don't like him they become SJW's or shills so by not agreeing with him you join the group that doesn't matter to him and he can dismiss you! what wonderful "logic" it lets you just keep going and only pay attention to the support you get.

Probably, if you have a screen cap program that saves each separate it is just a macro to press F5 then the screen cap button and you leave the device alone for a day or two on the page.

I think Gary the Conqueror has more going on upstairs. Maybe Wendy the Slow Adult too.

https://youtu.be/b6OnIMu3P2k

The drunk hobo on the corner screaming about the end of the world would talk to people like that, and some of his posts seem to use that as the example how to convince people that he is right. Scream loud, Scream often, Claim anyone disagreeing with him is working for the other side.

I hope @sanegoatiswear and all his alts get banned. He is the primary example of this shitty behavior.

Well personally I would moderate some of the comment votes, someone asked me "what was tyre" I said it was British spelling and I got downvoted. In what an answer deserves a downvote. Especially if it is responding correctly. I do understand many elements however I think we need to go deeper on some subjects

But where did my points go? I ain't do nothing wrong. ;(

So I lost 600 CCP because I wasn't farming? Fuck you. I left reddit because I was sick of moronic admits monkeying with my shit.

Donated again. This is AWESOME!

thank god

Another one from the 0 downvotes club, nice!

Thanks! Maybe it's because I'm too old, but basically, when I don't really care for something, I just "change the channel" I don't smash my TV.

Just because I'm not into a submission, maybe someone else digs it, so I don't get the whole "downvoat / dislike" mentality.

Someone took the time to contribute to Voat and that's what this place needs, content!

The only thing I do report is blatant spam.

Wow, I lost like 15k SCP hahaha

Dangit @Puttitout! First time on the job and you're dropping ym SCP :P

Faggot.

@SarMegahhikkitha @bojangles @eagleshigh

Aww, I liked the fact that I could interact with old content.

Voat isn't strictly better than reddit now, that's a shame.

I noticed that no one is really innocent

@PutItOut is the #TrumpOfVoat. Get these #IllegalVoaters out and build a beautiful cyber wall!!

*I'm not being sarcastic, I got so pumped when I read this sticky. These shills should be deported.

Brigading... you guys are pathetic!! PATHETIC!

Choke on spiders while you sleep.

I guess I won't be contributing any more $$ for voat.

I downvoat only comments that don't contribute to the conversation

Well, that's the right way use the downvoats. That's what they're for

I come to read and learn, that is all

Well, he said he will say more about the rules before banning anyone else, so I guess we'll just have to wait for those rules to be published

Go home Amalek.

So much transparency and authority, it's making me hard. Thanks @PuttItOut for being so... strong. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Yeah the wording is confusing but I think you no longer get that automatic 1 point for every submission you make, you only get points people have given you. Works a similar way on eddit.

If he puts this much effort in at work, he may eventually become POTUS.

Gemme back my internet points!1!!11!!!!!! I can't live without them!!!!!!11!!

No, I don't really care about internet points. I just want that trolls and spammers gone.

I've never originated a sub. Is that simply one of the options you have as an owner/mod? You can either make it eligible for /v/all or not?

We wuz farmers n shiiiiii!!!!

I can proudly say I have not broken any rules. So can we get a voat badge or somethin? :D

No fair, he never shows me his ass!

Looks like some people are a bit nervous. Sounds like good rules to me.

Blocking now works for pings and collapses comments - block away!

"Voat is now archiving old submissions (current set to 3 months)."

I hate that we have to to this I have seen conversations on other sites go in for years in some threads.

It's interesting how "you can say anything you want" always quickly turns into "we need to clean this mess up". I prefer the former mindset, even when confronted with a bot army led by trolls.

To be honest I'd like to see the whole damn "karma" thing removed. It's a recipe for disaster and has always been. Just look at reddit. Karma whoring is sadly a thing. No one should care about imaginary internet points but they do.

Better to just let mods ban obvious shills and spammers. Have a spam subverse where mods can report spammers. The up and down votes should only exist on the thread no the comments. That way the community can still "control" what they want to see and what they don't. But it takes away people's ability to manipulate the discussion by down voting stuff they don't like. Leftists have been using this technique on reddit for ages where they use the hive mind to their advantage. They have bots that will downvote the comments of users they don't like and once a comment starts out in the negative they almost always end up in the negative removing them from sight or creating the sense to others that "this opinion is bad".

User deleted comments have their positive CCP removed (Common farming technique)

That's horse shit. So now if we want to maintain positive CCP we are basically forced to leave a nice long breadcrumb trail that any angry faggot can use to dox us or make our lives miserable just because some crybabies got mad that people were getting too many fake internet points.

Well, I've been looking for a reason to stop using this site anyway. Enjoy your personal data farm.

What's the point of manipulating votes anyway? What's in for the guys doing this, Internet points?

Just lost 10k SCP. There goes the Winnebago

What kind of brigading is going on in Voat?

If you need me, I'll be downvoating the blue oyster cult's "don't fear the reaper".

Fucking hate that song. Oh snap, there's a whole sub that posts nothing but that song over and over! But if I downvote the shitty song I genuinely don't like every time I see it, and I just clicked that link -- am I vote manipulating / brigading?

Honestly, I don't think the Gods care... They're just scaring us with the potential for damnation, they don't really do anything when you sin nowadays... it comes much later, after life-b&. And let's face it, future me getting tortured in hell is some other poor sucker that's not me right now. Screw that guy, he was a dick to me.

I would never look at your upvote history.

People change all the time, cells divide, brain cells make new connections. When you're a brain, you change your mind. It's what brains do.

Only the present you matters. The past is just a way to penalize you for things the present doesn't like anymore. If this was real life, the present would penalize us for doing dumb shit right then, not wait to find out about it in the future then scold us for doing it in the past. Hell, by that time I could be a whole new changed [wo]man!

Good to see some active development, keep it up!

TIL: "manipulate" means to handle or control (a tool, mechanism, etc.), typically in a skillful manner.

So, just don't vote very skillfully, and we're golden.

Scott free, so long as not pissing admin off, I'd wager.

Only thing we could possibly do would be to.... well, I better not say. Something something Turks.

From this point forward, if you brigade another users’ content your account will be banned.

Welcome to reddit 2.0. All of the censorship, with a tenth of the content. I knew the creator of voat selling out was going to ruin things, but I didn't expect them to get ugly this fast.

I think I accidentally started the deletion process for my account... Can't log in on pc.

This made me exhale strongly out of my nose.

Woohoo!!! And end to the endless amalek/antiracist/jesusofnazareth/lord_spartacus alts!!!

LEL WAT

Users no longer earn CCP in Private Subverses (Common farming technique)

Users no longer earn CCP in Subverses with Minimum Downvote values greater than zero (Common farming technique)

User deleted comments have their positive CCP removed (Common farming technique)

https://i.imgtc.com/X7VZIQQ.jpg

Well that should be no problem if the block feature is put in place.

Voat is now archiving old submissions (current set to 3 months).

I hate this on Reddit and hoped it'd never be here. Fuck this. It's super annoying to come across a very good comment worth upvoting, only to see that it's archived. This is now actually worse than on Reddit (which has it set to 6 months).

Oy vey! You filthy Voat admins! Give me back my CCP! I had over 6 million CCP and 69 gorillion SCP! My 6 million! You're ruining my business! It's like another Shoa! Filthy goyim scum! Remember the Holocaust!

you are conflating post curation with censorship.

try again.

goal posts

i didn't suggest letting spammers go wild. i heartly repeatedly suggest opening discussion to the community to figure a way to stop spam without censoring the fucking userbase.

no. srs (sbbh) will come right back. they just have to test what causes ban until they figure the ruleset, then they'll just set up around that. both the sjws and srs have open public upvoat brigade farms.

so you're saying

free speech doesn't exist IRL

?

cause some speech has consequences.

Mass bans and 'new logic.' I feel like I've seen this movie before.

No one is innocent? Go fuck yourself, cunt.

Since you will be banning accounts, you should clarify exactly what you mean by brigading. Your announcement will make people afraid to use the downvoat button.

And since you claim a lot of regulars do it, you need to explain exactly what it is.

I'm sure most regular accounts you think are brigading, don't realize they are doing it. Or maybe they are aware, and Voat is populated with assholes.

This might be silly to ask but in what order are the subvoats now in?

Edit: Never mind. Chronological order for when given mod status... it took me a while.

Nope, haven't worked anywhere like that.

This is great news. Thank you very much.

I lost like 400-500 points on each SCP and CCP, but the changes are fine by me.

We can only enforce this rule to a point. I want to make sure that someone using a computer at a college campus won't be accused of upvote manipulation when upvotes are given by numerous different people on the same pc on the same IP address. Or perhaps family members sharing a tablet. Or even a legitimate post getting a lot of upvotes very fast because they posted very popular content. If an account is blatantly participating in one of those ccp farm subs than by all means ban them but I believe anything less than that will have to be tolerated (e.g. it's hard to tell if someone is upvoting their posts on an alt account or getting legitimate upvotes from another person on the same computer and IP when both accounts have been used to post legitimate content).

I think my score went up. Neato.

Wait, no, that was just wishful thinking. It actually went down by a fair amount.

I wonder who was giving me undue upvoats then... oh well.

Only 20-34? I lost like 400-500 on each, lol.

Your sheriff is a fucking cat not a goat. Wtf?

I don't think I've seen putt spamming copypasta all over the place...

The best flavor.

You and I have very similar stories.

lol! The shills have won... Didn't you and he used to get along more or less? Up until recently, I thought Sane and I butted heads a bit, but still got along at times.

You're welcome, but please know that I am only speculating based on my reading of the post.

tone police!

isn't

is.

i've proven my case.

-ccp restrictions are user-curated censorship. an account is limited to a post a day and 10 comments.

voat restrictions a plenty so many, if you intend to actually talk i'll list em!

and more!

-

i'll talk how i please thanks.

Sounds very good, thank you for being on top of this, taking the time to research and implementing things to fix these issues.

Very much appreciated!

so we have the implementation of ad hoc law...great

lol

You need to stop feeding the troll. It's no good arguing with idiots. They will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience. Trying to speak rationally to him will get you nowhere, he will intentionally misconstrue everything you say to make himself out as a victim so he can play the martyr. The best possible course is to simply ignore. Without an audience it will simply fade to nothing.

Banning users. Scary.

Always Remember @puttitout you can do whatever you want.

Voat is just a silly internet thing. Not to be taken too seriously.

You have always been awesome.

You need to stop feeding the troll. It's no good arguing with idiots. They will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience. The best possible course is to simply ignore them. Without an audience it will simply fade to nothing.

i'm well aware this is

misdirection

let's talk about how this doesn't stop brigading at all.

how about we talk about why the real solution is to remove -ccp restrictions?

how about we talk about whether putt is putt or an sjw cuck, even?

ffs. topic. get on it like ur on ur mum every nite.

Came to thread to see @sanegoatiswear get triggered. Was not disappointed.

Nah, you should be fine :)

A hard decision to make, but I feel it is necessary. The insane goat was getting a bit out of hand. Time to cull the herd.

good god man

words

on the internet

MUH FEE FEES /s

and buttfuck your mother with a great view?

AMEN AND HALLELUJAH, MY BROTHER FROM ANOTHER MOTHER!!

There's already been plenty of discussion in this thread concerning the only issue with this post I see, and I see you've already commented saying you will be releasing more information outlining what constitutes brigading before acting on the change. All of the changes to deal with vote manipulation and archiving make perfect sense to me, and I see no issues with them. I commend you for the solid action plan.

As for the banning of brigaders, even with a clear definition of this, this is the only potential issue with this update. You say that your intention is only to ban people intentionally abusing systems maliciously. But how solid is our definition of what is malicious? This will also depend on how solid our definition of what brigading is. As long as there is some system of checks and balances where the banning of users is concerned, I'll be satisfied. I know this is for the betterment and protection of Voat and freedom of speech, but with changes of this scale we need to be careful is all, as I know you well know.

Thanks for the update.

You're welcome you communist cocksucker. I'll withhold my own judgement until putt defines what the definition of brigading is going to be.

Fuck the assholes who made this necessary. Thank you @PuttItOut for stepping up to sort the mess.

I've said it many times and I'll say it again: People are not their Internet Points and should never measure themselves in any capacity in relation to them.

Thank you, PuttItOut, for keeping Voat safe and maintaining its integrity.

I won't lose any sleep over lost Internet Points. I'm just grateful this place exists and that you care about your users.

Have a great weekend.

Users no longer earn CCP in Subverses with Minimum Downvote values greater than zero (Common farming technique)

One of the reasons that these subverses have minimum ratios is to discourage downvote brigading. I don't agree with this policy because it basically castrates those communities and prevents users from getting any increases in user reputation, despite being innocent.

Can you please comment on, and perhaps clarify, this issue? /u/PuttItOut

I'll abide by this, but I just want to give my two cents. I don't have any alts and I haven't automated the ability to voat on lots of stuff efficiently. I don't often go through someone's comments downvoating lots, but when I do, it's painfully boring and only done because the person has expressed their stupidity so profoundly and so annoyingly, without quite crossing the border into mental illness, that one downvoat isn't sufficient feedback for the shit stained refuse that are their comments and it makes me want to reconsider other comments in light of the discovery of their painful inability to correctly interpret and comprehend even the clearest of comments. So what's the harm if I, as an single individual without any support, thoughtfully reconsider a few dozen comments from an individual and downvoat those that are truly horrifically worthy of needing to be burned by fire? My couple dozen downvoats won't make a difference to the goat's CCP, so why do you offer these terrible comments so readily available? If you don't want me providing feedback on a per user basis, why do you display the user's un-archived comments? If you don't want people like me "brigading" a user slowly, by myself, and with great consideration, why don't you only dispray a user's archived comments?

I don't know how Voat is going to get by without him. TiL! (Tomorrow I'll Learn)

Does anyone else think it's possible Sane was asked to lift the TiL bans?

@SaneGoatiSwear, were you asked to lift the TiL bans? If not, why did you lift them?

I noticed the Stickied post (part 8[?]) had nearly 300 views, but only 1-2 commenters. Did that have something to do with your decision?

What did @LubeNBlisters do that he is banned? (Did I spell that username right?)

Oh! Well! Uh. Okay. Half evil and Half good. Uh. I guess that makes you average.

ugh, my black and white mind can't stand these shades of grey!!! @_@

CCP and SCP get affected when accounted get deleted. My SCP dropped by about 1500 and CCP dropped by 800 or so.

I'm not gonna sit here and listen to you be reasonable, Fuzzy. Please.

You'll probably miss this comment. But this change seems to have broken my mobile browser. I can no longer copy text to quote someone. I highlight stuff and only get a Paste option. Weird.

Hua! Thanks for alerting me, cat-shill. Not smart of you to out Puttsy as a pussy-lover, but what could I expect from another pussy-lover? (^: I bet you prefer feet over ass, too, dirty shill.

We'll deal with it with war.

Wut ?

He makes accusations and is unable to back them up. Any reasonable post in /v/whatever on why voat is compromised would be listened to and discussed.

What has bothered me on voat as of late is the number of /v/funny posts at the very top. There will be times when 5 (or more) of the first 10 /v/all are /v/funny. They are not the cat falling off a chair posts but they are in a funny subverse instead of a serious subverse. I don't want threads to become laugh lines and I don't think atko and puttitout do either. I honestly think they are genuine and want a place for discussion. It's what chatrooms were back in the 90s and early 00s.

Good idea Sane, GTFO.

So @Puttitout

Does this mean you are retroactively disallowing CCP on private/CCP protected subverses or are you proportionally removing CCP/SCP based on each Voater's individual totals?

I'm just releived its not an outside entity dropping point totals arbitrarily...

This type of argument is sometimes used as a form of fear mongering, in which the probable consequences of a given action are exaggerated in an attempt to scare the audience. The fallacious sense of "slippery slope" is often used synonymously with continuum fallacy, in that it ignores the possibility of middle ground and assumes a discrete transition from category A to category B.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slippery_slope

Putt said (in this thread!) that he will clarify the rules regarding brigading before moving forward with banning.

We don't negotiate with cat lovers.

We dominate !

Looks like the pedophiles want everyone out going back to a certain date so we stay and and keep on calling out bullshit and down voating it.

Edit: by bullshit I mean anything that resembles liberal ideals.

Tying the negative CCP of deleted comments to accounts is one of the best ways we found to quickly kick spam accounts into the negatives. There is no reason to believe that feature is going anywhere.

fitting facts to alternate conclusions

i am not a shill, you stupid nigger.

shill shilling

I search through my comment or submission history looking for keywords. I don't use the actual search engine

Awesome, I see now what you did with the archiving of data, as I was under the initial impression that the content would no longer be available. You are simply pushing that out of the cache, and partitioning the database to archive the content. Great job! I already see that the site seems to be responding a lot faster. Hopefully this will allow even more goats to chew on the curds of free speech.

no.

saying your opinion and pasting the user agreement doesn't make your opinion truth

@puttitout

still 100% being brigaded. you are the dumbest nigger on voat, you either fell for the sjw trap or you're in with the sjw or taken over by them and are being forced to do this against your will. either way, dumbest nigger on voat

Oh, so basically a way for subs to block themselves by default.

@Puttitout if it doesn't already work that way it would be pretty cool if you could unblock a private sub to show up on your /v/all

Demand a recount! TRIGGERED!!!! NOTMYVOAT!!!!

/s

Thank you.

Your ideas and actions are innovative, proactive, and helpful. But your picture wasn't a goat so I don't like you any more.

Good shit m8, keep up the good work. Also #MakeVoatGreatAgain

U mad bro?

Aaaaannnddd... This comment is already deleted. Why is that?

@puttitout this is some dirty nigger shit

you could just remove the -ccp restrictions, but instead, you'd rather increase the downvoating brigades, and remove a bunch of everyone's ccp

TLDR: everyone just learned how many deleted accounts had upvoated them.

NOTICE TO ALL USERS: PUTTITOUT WILL NEVER RESPOND TO @ADSNEL2004 AND @MADAMOS'S REQUEST FOR CLARIFICATION. ONLY THE SHILLS IN THE SJW CABAL GET TO KNOW. THE SRS CABAL IS LEFT OUT IN THE COLD. YOU HAVE NO ONE TO PROTECT YOU; GOATKU IS DEAD. BUT ONE THING REMAINS: THE SJW CABAL. KEVDUDE, FUZZYWORDS, THE DUDE BEHIND HALF THE ACCOUNTS MODDING V/PIZZAGATE, THE HEAD MODS OF MOST MAJOR NON DEFAULT SUBS, THE JANITOR OF DEFAULT SUBS, THE USERS THAT CONTROL WHO GETS BANNED. THEY GET TO KNOW WHAT BRIGADING IS AND ISN'T, AND THE REST OF US DON'T. GITHUB SHOWS NONE OF THESE CHANGES; THE BAN LOG DOESN'T SHOW ANY NEW USERS BANNED. voat is now closed source, and sjw-controlled. defcon 1. abandon ship, voat is for the shills.

lol wtf

I will shortly be banning hundreds of obvious alt accounts

Can these be deleted to save server resource costs?

My offer of $100 to deepthroat a chainsaw still stands..... @SaneGoatiSwear

I like you.

TIL Private subverses are a thing.

Cool changes.

Said the guy who has lost 5000 ccp in a few days. Honestly you are disturbing InsaneGoat. You need calm down brotha because you're drowning in your own words like a bag lady screaming fuck me!

@puttitout known shill threatening me. do you not ban for law breaking? do you not ban shills? NO? you just ban at a certain level of voating, which is free speech that's protected, but you just abridged it.

cuck.

oh i'm sorry was there a shill talking?

Oh, good point! I like that workaround, thanks!

• positive ccp

• still v/til mod

um wat?

factually incorrect shill is silly gay shill

Sherriff Meowzers

Good shit!

I object to the cat picture.

Everything else seems super awesome, thanks!

A lot of these feel like Reddit-esque changes. And not in a good way. Especially the archived after 3 months (actually worse than reddit) and the threat to ban users with undisclosed criteria

you're just flooding the complaint economy. When you complain about everything complaining means less, you seem to always have a problem with everything he does so why should @puttitout take your opinion into consideration if you're never going to be happy?

Dude I lost CPP and I swear to god I've never farmed. I barely post unless it's something I care about. I don't have the free time to pull that shit.

Go ahead and jump off.

Thanks Putt.

Don't fuck it up.

good job :)

This is nice, thanks!!

:) awesome! I may have lost points but I'm happy.

But that's stupid. I could make an account and get 100 CCP in about an hour by copying a few posts from reddit. It would be more work for me to do it by setting up private subverses. The more Voat grows the easier and easier it is to earn 100 CCP, it's already no longer much of a hurdle.

User deleted comments have their positive CCP removed

Every once in a while I go back and delete older comments of mine (for privacy reasons and to cut my comment page count total down/make my account more manageable). Does this mean if I continue to do so I'll continue to drop CCP? It's not a huge deal overall but I like the option of deleting older comments without incurring 'demerits'. I guess I should say it's a trade-off I am happy to live with.

Dropped by 2-3k ccp. Holy crap.

Any news about letting people view old comments /submissions past a certain page? At times I like to go back and re-read drama on my profile and some of it is hard to find.

Here you go; from the Archiving data part of the announcement

• Please note that all point values will drop because of this new logic. Prior logic counted up/down totals on submissions and comments instead of the individual votes themselves (it was more performant this way). When a user deletes their account, their votes are removed but the up/down totals are not adjusted. Since new logic uses individual vote counts everyone’s points will be dropping unfortunately. Just heads up. @Atko was hit the worst of all, poor guy.

Great update. Idea with archiving old posts is superb and blocking the ability to farm in private subverses or those that require more CCP is also ingenious. Thank you for your work Putt!

Well, this should be interesting.

luks gud.

I would imagine this means using alts to downvoat someone multiple times.

Thanks for all the hard work that you and Atko have done! Quick question regarding the Archiving of data, if you save a thread/ comment, is that only saved for as long as the content is actualy available, and not archived? Not that it makes a too much of a difference to me, but I could definitely see that as being useful information as well. @PuttItOut

my hero

/u/probablynotafaggot described it perfectly. What's not to get?

Especially since I tag users, and thus I'm more likely to vote on them, as they stand out (both upvotes and downvotes).

Just curious about other people's thoughts on archiving submissions? It always annoyed me when I couldn't comment or vote on older posts on that other site..Especially three months is not a long period of time at all.

I appreciate you keeping us in the loop with the specifics!

Change can be good and I like seeing attempts being made to rectify certain problems within Voat. Thanks for the update @PuttItOut.

I'm okay with losing some Internet points.

Everyone else: keep being pretty cool. Except that Sanegoat dude. Like seriously, what is his problem? I've genuinely tried to ignore it, but it's like watching some petulant brat go off the deep end mentally. Then I remember this isn't a child but an actual adult.

This is excellent news Putts (despite nothing on the API/token_refresh <3)

I'm very not happy that my scores were nice and even and now they're all fucked up.

Fantastic! As a regular contributor, I lost a fair amount of SCP/CCP myself, but what we gain for all in this exchange far outweighs that. They're just non-existent internet points anyway and I don't post for SCP/CCP ... I post because I enjoy the Voat platform and the many great people I've met here. Thanks for all the hard work. I'm happy some of these issues are being actively addressed. It can only make the experience better for all. Kudos to Puttitout, and all the behind the scenes unheralded actors of Voat who helped make all this go smoothly!

I'll admit I just shat a brick after voting on a link a few minutes ago, and my points dropped. Thought I was being brigaded lol.

Thank ye Sir Putt. Onward and Upward!

Users no longer earn CCP in Private Subverses (Common farming technique)

Users no longer earn CCP in Subverses with Minimum Downvote values greater than zero (Common farming technique)

Can you elaborate what this accomplishes? For vote manipulation I'm more concerned about posts being artificially downvoted than someone trying to artificially appear to have a higher CCP.

As far as CCP goes I would much prefer we don't even have a global total. On reddit it leads to people reposting shit constantly. Just show a breakdown of CCP earned in each sub.

My worthless interpretation would be looking at someone's profile and downvoting everything in sight because you were triggered. (i.e. being a faggot).

From this point forward, if you brigade another users’ content your account will be banned.

Does downvoting a user who spams the same copypasta across different threads when you come across it count as brigading?

thankyou

Lovin it so far thank you.

Thank's Putt. Glad to see many positive changes since you've been under management. <3

this is stupid.

you didn't stop the shills you fucking moron.

you just made it worse.

ALL YOU FUCKING HAD TO DO WAS REMOVE -CCP RESTRICTIONS.

YOU JUST FUCKING DROPPED EVERYONE'S POINTS?

SERIOUSLY, SINCERELY, GO FUCK YOURSELF YOU STUPID NIGGER. I HOPE YOU FALL IN A PIT OF NIGGERS WITH ONLY AN EBT CARD, JUSTIN. FUCK YOU.

YOU PUSSY FAGGOT LITTLE NIGGER.

YOU SUCK. YOU'RE AWFUL. THIS IS SO SHITTY

NOW 3 MONTHS BACK IS ALL ARCHIVED, TOO?

OH JUST WORSE

DEFINE BRIGADING YOU FUCKING RETARD

PUBLISH THIS NIGGERFAGGOT CODE.

SERIOUSLY FUCK YOU

OH AND ONE MORE THING

FUCK YOU THIS IS MAJOR CHANGES THAT MUST BE DISCUSSED WITH USERS FIRST. YOU DID NONE OF THAT.

AGAIN, JUST SO EVERYONE'S REAL FUCKING CLEAR: PUTTITOUT JUST GAVE FREE REIGN TO THE EMBEDDED SHILLS TO KNOW WHAT THE LINE IS TO BE BANNED, SO THEY CAN BRIGADE UP TO BUT NOT OVER THAT POINT. THIS IS NOT A SOLUTION. IT'S A DELAY. THE SHILLS WILL RETURN, AND GOATKU IS DEAD. THERE WILL BE NO MORE GOATKU. NO ONE WILL SAVE YOUR ASS FROM THE SHILLS. NO ONE IS ALLOWED TO KNOW WHO THESE "HELPERS ON THIS CODE" WERE/ARE. OF COURSE IT'S FUZZYWORDS AND THE SHILLS. THEY'VE BEEN CODING WITH PUTT FOR AT LEAST A YEAR... SO NOW KNOWN CRIMINAL SHILLS HAVE ACCESS TO KNOW THIS AND WE DON'T. ALL BETS ARE OFF, NO ONE IS SAFE.

you're on _{your own, voat}

That's a cat.

Anonymous users cheating for pretend status? It's like me telling you all I get laid a lot.

People need to go make eye contact and speak to real people more.

I kid you guys not, I lost 1000 ccp

Putt is awesome.

@PuttItOut

This is a good point, can we get a clear definition of brigading so people can make sure they don't do it?
