Love posting something like a tip for making running an old game easier on Reddit and the only engagement I get being some twats downvoting the post for no reason :angery:

The idea of giving posts a thumbs up or a thumbs down elevating the quality of discussions is such a :so-true: brained concept anyway

    I don't know about that, when most people see a bad comment they respond with :PIGPOOPBALLS: or peepee poopoo which isn't more constructive than a downvote. Also you can still see group consensus based on how many upvotes certain comments get versus others

      Some do which is fun, but others also jump in and have fun conversations with them.

      Granted if a comment is getting to the level that :PIGPOOPBALLS: is the response that comment is likely going to get removed anyway.

        Yeah, but some people still engaged with bad comments even when downvotes were still a thing.
