I don't know what I hate more, the +1's or the excessive use of meme pictures in github issue threads

- inglor 11y agoI really think that GitHub needs better tools to deal with this, this is very frustrating - the only options right now are deleting a ton of comments or locking it preventing all discussion. Prompting people with a modal informing them what comments are inappropriate would go a long way.
- omouse 11y agoIn the past you would create a few mailing lists; I think sourceforge automatically did that for you too. They should have locked the thread or use a wiki page for this. A wiki page is less likely to be edited to add this kind of comment or at least it would be easier to clean up with a bot.
- andreasklinger 11y agoTeam internally we introduce `+1 by XYZ` labels exactly for this reason It's surprising that Github doesnt provide "approval" as a native feature
- feedjoelpie 11y agome too ... :)
- feedjoelpie 11y agoOH COME ON, IT WAS A JOKE, MODS.
- striking 11y agoLooks like people don't get it. Or maybe they have a different view on what's funny. In any case, commenting about downvotes just attracts more downvotes.
- tokenizerrr 11y agoJust to clarify: Downvotes are made by other users who have hit a certain karma treshold. No moderators involved.
- jakejake 11y agoI appreciate that the voting keeps the conversation from devolving into a competition for laughs. But, sometimes it seems that HN has no sense of humor whatsoever.
