First, find a way to blacklist no only tags but entire users. This is not my idea (I’m proud of not blacklisting anything… anything) but have read about it many times. This could avoid much internet fights clogging the images, and the “burn in the ninth circle of hell” comments
Second, distribute voting power not equally. To illustrate this point I was going to upload a screenshot, but to avoid drama I’ll just transcribe a conversation:
User1: For God’s sake people, blacklisting exists. Use it.
User2: But I can’t downvote it if I block it!
And then a facehoof. Voting should judge the quality of the work not a way to spread hate.
Hope to hear some feedback!
>Um, no? An artist trying something new and getting downvoted because what they previously did is not fair and only discourages their progress.
>"If they can’t handle criticism they shouldn’t be an artist."
>We want to know if this particular piece of art is more liked or disliked by the community in terms of artistry.
