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.

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.

Setting it high doesn't mean jack fuck. They'll just have upvote parties in their SJW subs so they can downvote again.

Moderators can set CCP limits for individual subs. So you could set a limit of 200 for your specific sub and even if someone can downvoat elsewhere they won't be able to downvoat in your specific sub unless they've made 200 points in your specific sub.

Well, so far the subs I moderate have almost no activity/users. Honestly, I'd love to be able to simply turn off downvoats altogether for /v/gamedev since it's somewhere that should be productive and helpful, but that functionality doesn't exist and just hiding the down buttons with CSS wouldn't stop someone from restoring with a userscript or their own CSS.

And besides the trickery I think you'd be able to downvoat them from their comment overview anyway with it just being a style thing. Hopefully an option is in the works or at least being considered. One workaround to disable it could actually be to raise the CCP limit to whatever the maximum is, which is hopefully something impossible. Then you can hide the buttons and even if people restore them they still can't downvoat.
As for what the limits should be, I'd say stick with the site wide 100 for now (unless there's already bad behavior with it) and consider it once there's more users. Maybe 20 would be a good starting point and if that turns out to be too easy raise it by tens. Although I'm not a moderator of anything and it could be different for any sub for all sorts of reasons.
