Are there guidelines on the intended use that I missed? I pretty much just saw "Don't abuse it", which I didn't feel like I was doing. I also assumed that it worked similar to flagging and voting (weighted against other voters), and would've been more cautious if I knew there was normally a 1:1 between vouch and undeadening, which seems to be the case.
I appreciate the restoration, and I'm sure you're right that I overdid it. I will be judicious with it moving forward. Thanks for the restore.
>Also, please try to keep the meta-commentary to a minimum? The reason we don't like people saying "@throwaway993 you are shadowbanned" is because of what it does to signal/noise ratio—that's one reason we created vouching in the first place. Meta is like those styrofoam packing nuggets if they grew like the Ghostbusters marshmallow.
OK, I understand that position. And it is nice to know that "improper shadowban" is among the signals received by moderators when a vouch is made. I have other thoughts, but in the interest of keeping meta-discussion minimized, I'll leave it there. ;)
