Hello Admins,

Why are the number of downvotes limited to 10 per day and 3 to any member?

There are many people on this forum that it is pointless to argue with, no facts or evidence will sway them. They spam the forum with nonsense and I think that it is unreasonable that I am not allowed to show that I disapprove of their posts.
 
While I am being a trouble maker, why aren't Admins clearly labelled? There is a clear tag for "Forum Supporter" why is this system not used to identify Admins or Moderators?

The only way I can tell if someone is an admin is to look which groups they are a member of.

You flag posts which you think are offensive but actually are not. I suggest for every person you disagree with, use the Foe function so you don't have to spiral down this constant path of negativity. Or buy a cat, which ever works for you.

You still have not answered the question? Why are downvotes limited?

The posts I labelled as offensive usually broke the forum rules. “Abuse and Name-calling ... is not accepted", calling players garbage, puke or a joke seems to break that rule.

The foe function is not useful, people reply to posts you cant see and it makes threads confusing and unreadable. The people that I would label as foe make up a large portion of the content and I do not disagree agree with everything they say.

Well you will just have to deal with it. Life isn't always fair.
 
This may be the funniest thread I’ve ever seen. This off-season just keeps giving, I don’t ever want the season to begin.

At least the limit protects me from downvoting you for not answering my question and getting my self banned.

If our recruitment doesn't improve, I don't want the season to begin either.

Pretty sure you used to be able to search the mod team on the old forum.

There's only about a half dozen of us that are regularly active.

You can do it here as well, it’s just not as straight forward as doing a search.

Looks like people are testing your theory out.

Hoping the page self destructs after the limit is reached
