This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

As far as changing how users use up/downvotes, I can see two methods. The expedient method is admin banning “abusers,” and that would cause a monumental shitshow. Forcing the issue is just going to kill an instance. Admin posts and continuous calls to action, on the other hand, would elicit ironic downvoters but has a chance of gradually shifting attitudes. Honestly doesn't seem worth the grief either way.
