It'd be very "funny".

It would be comedic gold.
Meah
Because it may result to an angelic community due to fear of getting downvotes.

Like what's the point of life when you're not constantly receiving validation from random strangers on the internet

Some people would kill themselves because of the amount of downvotes they will have.

Fuck no, having a voting system destroys the point of a forum

what is the point and how does it get destroyed by introducing a voting system?


I am also against it. People get influenced a lot by how they perceive the opinions of others. This can go so far, that they will decide what to think about a comment based on how it is rated, not based on what it says.
Since I do not trust in the majorities power to resist these forces, I think a voting system would be a step in the completely wrong direction. I wouldn't want arbitrary down- or upvote chain-reactions that were set off by someone who didn't know what he was talking about, and kept alive by people that followed equally unreflective.
It's a mindkiller.

Well, I believe the point behind a forum is to provide a place where you can speak your opinion, and be influenced by the opinion of others.
A voting system on posts causes there to be one prevalent opinion that gets upvoted meanwhile every other opinion gets downvoted to oblivion and nobody else sees it.

So then it just devolves into a cycle of people trying to perpetuate the popular opinion hoping to get more upvotes, and people don't want to disagree because nobody will care, and they'll get downvoted.

Is that a valid point of just another autistic opinion? Do you think self-depreciation is cool or something?
