There were only a few possible actions to be take:
- Do nothing and let the baggage from elsewhere to flow into pob
- Downvote the downvoters who downvote with no merit
- Upvote to negate the downvote
- Mute behavior that's not in line with pob
They're all a bunch of bad options and I don't envy being in your position. Whichever one you take, people are going to shit on you.
I prefer pob without all the drama that the higher price imported. Wouldn't mind if we go back to that but I know some rely on the price for their day to day living and I hope they have their plans sorted out.
