Yeah sure, I guess I just don't see how they'd achieve that.
Someone posts something trolling or offensive, it gets 10 down votes and is hidden until moderated. Seems fine
Someone posts something non trolly or offensive but 10 individual people decide to down vote it coz bullying, it gets temporarily hidden but permanently reinstated shortly afterwards, content is preserved, nobody is silenced. Seems fine also I'd have thought. Where is the opportunity for exploitation?
Making the forum unusable because trolls and bullies abuse the system. You do want the forum to be preserved because it's fun and useful, right? Not just so that there's a website called LFGSS.
