    It annoys me when people here segregate their willingness to help users here who they disagree with politically or have issues with their input - eg. considering them 'trolls' because of the form of their involvement.

    I'll happily respond to hayoth and robotron, for example, if their post has nothing to do with what I disagree with them about.

    I don't think QBN was a serene vista of apolitical involvement back in the old days - i think we've always been dicks. Just - there's less of us now, and the novelty of engagement in the internet's long-since passed.

    .

    Fuck downvotes though - wish there was some balancing mechanism for their use. oh well.

    • besides, lots of people I disagree heavily politically are users that contribute to the forum and also help with questions.
