Stickers are the worst part of lolcow sites and people who "troll" with them are below failtrolls. People don't want to get rid of them so a compromise had to be met with only positive/neutral ratings.

If you're having to constantly claim someone else's forum is a poor version of the site you frequent, 9 times out of 10 there's a problem and dare I say "You're coping"

Actually, some good came out of taking most of them away.Stickers are the worst part of lolcow sites and people who "troll" with them are below failtrolls. People don't want to get rid of them so a compromise had to be met with only positive/neutral ratings.

Both A&H users and A&H haters came together to complain they wanted their precious stickies back.
I think the current stickers A&H have are fine.
lol no.Even more good would come if Josh just erased A&H entirely and gave 'em all the boot, but then KF would be even more irrelevant than it already is, so no go.
lol no.
KF's problems would still exist just as bad, they just wouldn't have a scapegoat to blame all their woes on.
Those people bring in money and from what I can tell is the part of the site that has the most consistent growth. There is no way in hell he's going to dump it any time soon.Even more good would come if Josh just erased A&H entirely and gave 'em all the boot, but then KF would be even more irrelevant than it already is, so no go.
Yeah definitely be better off with some semi-active cows who don't do shit/users moving 20 pages a day on a cow thread by posting thier own opinions.Even more good would come if Josh just erased A&H entirely and gave 'em all the boot, but then KF would be even more irrelevant than it already is, so no go.
People wouldn't give a shit if there wasn't a score attached. You can solve all the site's problems with stickers by changing how that is displayed by either making it private, showing the amount of negative and positive ratings a person has or doing away with it entirely. I am most fond of this last item.

Even forgetting all the stuff attached to stickers, why even have a point system for a place that was meant to document insane people?People wouldn't give a shit if there wasn't a score attached.

I don't know. It serves no real purpose aside from driving the majority of visible drama on the site. If it were up to me the stickers would stay and the points would go. I think they do serve a purpose in getting rid of a lot of useless responses and can act as a kind of corrective for bad posts without completely discouraging users.Even forgetting all the stuff attached to stickers, why even have a point system for a place that was meant to document insane people?
It could be as simple as him looking how popular reddit is and knows that'll keep people around, Josh isn't exactly the 300 iq master of socializing after allEven forgetting all the stuff attached to stickers, why even have a point system for a place that was meant to document insane people?

Even if such threadbans were temporary it would engender bitterness amongst a lot of users. You'd be trading sticker crying for a different kind of whining.Just start threadbanning folks who don't contribute to the topic at hand. Like, nobody needs to know how better at life you are than the cow in question - either contribute some quality milk or move on.
The point system is a part of almost every forum I've visited and it's been like that since before Reddit existed.It could be as simple as him looking how popular reddit is and knows that'll keep people around, Josh isn't exactly the 300 iq master of socializing after all
