That was my take on it too. The vague sense that you’re just going to end up with nothing but circle-jerks if you implement all these suggestions. I could also just be whooshing an attempt a levity, something obvious to a seasoned community moderator.

Hopefully my shitty attempts at socratic method rate a bit better then trolling, but I often doubt it :-)

People who downvote more than upvote tend to be the ones who get in fights a lot and say snarky, inflammatory and negative things.

Summed up my whole sense of humor in half a throwaway sentence ;-)

Seriously though, interesting read, thank you kux… you can really feel the author’s frustration and yet I can’t help but feel that they are interested in a certain kind of idealistic online community. Reddit but with a really restrictive HOA where everyone has the exact same color mailbox.

Don’t forget the stickers to un-write protect it :-)
