    What alternatives to votes would you propose to handle this better? Because I have no doubt the same thing will happen here too…

    It’s just how people work, especially when things get heated. That said, perhaps that’s a poor example as a heated discussion isn’t necessary a helpful/constructive one…

      I already said: upvotes only, remove downvotes, votes are public. If we don’t have downvotes public voting is not as important. But if we insist on keeping them, then yes it should be public

      We also need people to be more accepting of stricter/heavier-handed moderation, which is a hard sell.
