I have no comment on any of that except to make one single point/explanation: Handing out bans ups apathy to an unhealthy level. People afraid to upvoat or downvoat anyone for anything or else they risk a ban for manipulation or brigading or whatever other name you want to call it won't create public support (immune response) for the "correct" parties involved in whatever dispute/drama currently happening. There's only one person to blame for kicking off the ordeals you speak of.

Well, now that leash is removed; will the goats act?

Maybe, but it might not be a drop in the bucket compared to the legion of newly bitter goats and existing shit posting alt armies fresh off their victory parade.

We're both old goats, crensch. I come here for news, entertainment, and to exchange in playful banter with others. Getting shit on without explanation left a bad taste in my mouth, but at least I got my account back.

I have an extra watering can. Wanna help me grow these goats? @middle_path might even approve.

I think you misunderstood. I was shit on without real explanation by the admin, not zyklon. I logged in Friday to find out I was banned. The log showed a -1 for downvoating a brand new account trying to shit up voat. I don't have an alt-army. I'm just one 4 year old account who loved this place. Had it not been for the people like zyklon, I'd still be banned.

Nothing against you, but trying to water the good goats all this time ended up fucking me. If anything, I owe their antics for returning my account to me.

Ahh.

Yeah, that's pretty fucked. Wanna grab a watering can and watch it all burn?
