Of course we have to wait and see. This may not come from where I think it does, but if so, the main issue that I see deals with that I’m wondering if these new changes will actually do anything other than make me click on more stuff. Not complaining about it at all, in fact I like the idea.
I liked Fluther from day one for its gearing towards elaboration and intelligence, as well as the vast variety of subjects to be approached here, which just can’t be done of pseudo posh uptight places like AB, however at the same time it seems to create a sense of superiority in some people which makes me question the sense of equality around here, and I don’t think some added categories are gonna change that.
I agree with the idea that if one must absolutely be a dick, then at least answer the question while you’re at it, but making sure this happens, does it require all this? I guess we’ll see.
And no, I’m not suggesting that the mods suck or that some peeps need to be dealt with, never would I think that, I just bite the bullet and that’s it, such is online everywhere, anyways, and I’m also not suggesting boycotting anything; in fact, as far as dicks go, I’m probably one of the biggest dicks here, just so yall know I don’t think myself any better than anyone, and if my observations are bullshit, I’d rather they be explained to me why they are, rather than just being told as such.
I’m bringing it up because if I understand correctly, the changes were made to alter certain undesirable behaviours, and what I don’t quite get is how those categories are gonna do that.
Within all this long winded bullshit, what I’m asking exactly is; how? I’ll offer suggestions after I’m sure I properly comprehend.
As for ’‘complaints’’, I don’t think I’ve seen that many, but I still say we should have a bump feature for old questions, although it’s my guess that this may no longer be so necessary if things are divided into categories. :/
