We've turned off the flags, but we all need to take extra care to comment civilly and substantively so that we have a chance to discuss the actual issue. Users often flag stories like this because they're anticipating flamewars and not at all because they disagree with the content of the article.
- jakebasile 9y agoI think it's a bit uncool to "turn off the flags" here. I flagged this specifically because I am tired of the incessant flamewar that will surely happen in here.
- sctb 9y agoWhen moderators do this we compensate by giving the thread specific attention to attempt to prevent such flamewars as best we can.
