MODERATORS
 

Currently downvotes are enabled on a trial basis, this was done by me to see if they can be enabled to prevent spam from rising to the top of communities, along with the fact that is another form of interaction/feedback.

However I've gotten some pushback for this and so I'd like to see the general consensus of this decision. Please put any comments/concerns in this thread, and please vote here: (Link gone poll is done)

the results of this poll and the comments will determine if we keep or remove downvotes again

I'm for them in theory but I feel like they get abused. Like if someone posts a dick in gonewild. Nothing wrong with that, but most people don't wanna see dicks.

I don't suppose you can leave it up to the sub-lemmy to decide? (Sub lemmy? Wtf are we calling these?)

[–] NodachiDicc@lemmynsfw.com 5 points 2 weeks ago

I’m going to post a solo on gone wild .. 😈 let’s experiment lol

[–] wackawacka@lemmynsfw.com 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Nothing wrong with that, but most people don’t wanna see dicks.

I agree that there's nothing wrong with that, but if most people don't want to see it, then... why shouldn't it get downvoted? That's kind of the point, isn't it? Give the people what they want.

Perhaps dicks belong in a more niche sub where people actually do want to see that?

[–] citra_estrella@lemmynsfw.com 10 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

They get downvotes in the niche subs too because everyone browses Lemmy by All due to lack of content.

ok, well that just sucks.

*Edit: I feel like my wording was unclear and could be interpreted as "sucks for them, but oh well". I meant it more in a genuine "oh damn, that's really shitty" kind of way.

[–] JustS0m3Dud3@lemmynsfw.com 4 points 2 weeks ago

As a moderator of some of those subs I can confirm.

[–] NodachiDicc@lemmynsfw.com 4 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

It will definitely get abused 🤣

Ohhhh I know trust me I know lol 🤣someone downvoted almost every one of my posts on nodachiwrld 😆

[–] deezcashews@lemmynsfw.com 3 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Lol yeah people hate you and your magic dick

Ps tell your hot ass wife to post more 🤣

[–] NodachiDicc@lemmynsfw.com 11 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

She doesn’t like posting on here because people would rather see pornstars than OC’s, eclipsebunnie stopped posting here, nsfw kitty, posterxbunny, phoebe grace all left because of it , now If I told them about the downvotes they’ll never come back here .

[–] bobbiguy2122@lemmynsfw.com 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I have to disagree with that one, gonewild/oc posts get the most upvotes on average

[–] NodachiDicc@lemmynsfw.com 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I seen far more pornstar pics/posts make it on the front page more than OC’s, now is currently mostly OC’s but that’s only because the current OC’s are pretty new and are posting individually on other communities

[–] bobbiguy2122@lemmynsfw.com 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

if you look at top week and month the majority of top posts are OC, there are more pornstar posts because there is just a huge stockpile of porn that people can grab from, that's always going to be true. But again if you look at the upvotes history, people do actually appreciate OC alot. The ratio of upvotes for oc vs porn is probably similar to reddit, there's just a lot less people here, which means less interaction in general.

[–] NodachiDicc@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

But then why are OC’s leaving? I talked to the girls I know and they said not many interactions on here, upvotes are good but it doesn’t keep them staying on the front pages for long and then gets drowned out by non OC posts . If people interacted with OC’s like they do with porn posts, then OC’s wouldn’t get drowned out by it

[–] Biapathy@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 2 weeks ago

I'm not sure where you're getting this opinion because, aside from AskNSFW posts, OC posts are pretty much the only posts that consistently get actual comments. What do you define as "porn posts?" I'm imagining the professional large studio shots that get posted regularly. They get upvotes, but rarely get comments.

[–] deezcashews@lemmynsfw.com 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I disagree but that's just me, there are plenty of tube sites to see pornstars get fucked, I come here for the OC

[–] NodachiDicc@lemmynsfw.com 6 points 2 weeks ago

Exactly! More ppl should bring light to the OC’s on here rather than the pornstar posts lol

[–] NodachiDicc@lemmynsfw.com 4 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Hahaha, they’re mad/jealous because I sleep with beautiful women all the time 😅 they don’t like pretty guys with pretty women 🤣💜

[–] deezcashews@lemmynsfw.com 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

People are dumb, I'm over here living vicariously through you haha

[–] NodachiDicc@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 2 weeks ago

🤣🤣🤣 welll, I’m glad annnnd a new video with the wife makes it’s way here tomorrow!

[–] NSFW_Kittyy@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 2 weeks ago

You’re beautiful not pretty 🤭

(Sub lemmy? Wtf are we calling these?)

We tend to call them what the UI for most Lemmy clients (or the web version) call them, i.e. "communities".
