There's a bunch of spam from a user called "BravoIsabella" that has positive upvotes, and a grumpy post from one of the AI communities saying "mystery downvoter show yourself".
Edit: we have three regular posters (Radovic, LVL3_Eroticism, and Cleverhans) saying they don't like the decision and they may stop posting. There's at least one instance of upvoted spam.
There are two instances of spam accounts getting upvotes
Oh and the "mystery downvoter" post got, as of this moment, a -11. In a new community with 5 subscribers. It basically means a gang of people are just going around and downvoting everything I post. It's no longer about artistic differences or anything, it's a vendetta.
And frankly, I am not here for this type of shit. I've put a lot of time and effort into creating art and sharing it, including creating new communities. But this gang of self-appointed anonymous vigilantes is really making me reconsider whether it's all worthwhile.
Sorry about the whining. But since the admin asked how people feel about downvotes, that's how I feel.
It's shitty. I appreciate your posts. Here's hoping OP turns off downvotes and we can go back to the way we were.
Thanks!
Yeah, I posted this. Somebody or a number of somebodies are mass now downvoting nearly everything I post. Presumably, they have some beef but they should have stated it openly and we could have discussed it. Instead they are just blanket-bombing me.
Frankly, it's the sort of thing one expects on reddit. But this is supposed to be a better sort of place?
