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:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

While you're correct, you gotsta know that's now how people use it.
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.
