I have been here a while and enjoyed that for a nice time that you could post anything and people would not try to silence you with downvoats if they disagreed.
Today is the first day I put up links that were against the narrative, in this case it was not falsehoods about dangerous gamers, but issues connected that do not fit the story the elites and SJW foot soldiers want to tell about what is real and who and what is important.
Two defaults, two stories, in one minute in both cases one had 3 downvoats and the other had 5 downvoats. No one could have had time to read more than the title.
Upvoats came later, but it was to late to fix the initial coordinated downvoats. They had to have been coordinated or one person running multiple accounts.
Most of my 1300 SCP for submitting posts are from irreverent politically incorrect links or self-posts. Just be aware this place is being manipulated in the defaults now if you submit there. I have never seen so many downvoats in seconds ever, and I have spent a lot of hours here.
I deleted them because the only place you can challenge "The Narrative" is if no one is around to listen or you come with all of KiA to get your post through..depressing.
Please stay organized and transition to challenge the mainstream media distortions, don't ever forget what you have seen and learned by participating in this.

I've definitely seen an increase in questionable downvoats, however I just have to point out that (unless something has changed since I signed up) there are no default subs on this website. When you first join you get /v/all as your front page until you start subscribing to subs. I said this somewhere else not so long ago but as long as new users keep coming from Reddit, subs need to start enforcing their own CCP limits so that only active, trusted members can downvoat.

That has me thinking, I should probably set the CCP limits for the subs I moderate. Suggestion on a good value?

Hmm I'm honestly not sure of the right answer to that one. I would say a higher limit for more popular subs because there will be more upvoats going around in general. But I think maybe it would be best to ask that question to the members of those particular subs? Anyone who has been active long enough should be able to judge more or less based on their own CCP I'd say.

Part of a free speech platform like Voat is that you must be prepared for opposition, otherwise it is an echo chamber.

True, but downvoats aren't for opinions you disagree with. Coordinated downvoat brigades are a cowardly tactic.

Of course they are here. They're parasites that need to move amongst their hosts. If Reddit collapsed tomorrow, all of them would be here in a heartbeat. The real question is how many of them are already mods here.

Maybe your links just sucked, yo? Thought I agree there is the feeling of conspiracy in the air around here lately. Not sure if it's real or not, but interesting at the least.
