If no one complains about broken things or stupid ideas that chase normal people away, how would the project owner ever know? You saw my post, so it had a chance to have a positive effect. Unfortunately you chose to tell me I'm wrong for speaking up and call me defensive, even when it was posted in a joking manner. This is pretty much the standard response to any and all user feedback around here. Why do you think the complaints have gotten so numerous and sound so annoyed?
So I agree with your take that reposting (including with copying a reasonable amount of descriptive language) is not itself abuse or misconduct.
Great, then you should agree that if it cannot even detect and allow that, it is fundamentally broken.
It shouldn't bother people that just share the description with a video or picture. At All. That is what normal people call nagging. People don't like it. They will just leave if they cannot make it stop.
Take a second and step out of your bubble. Go find a person that is not a cryptonerd or developer, just a regular facebook\reddit type person. That is the target market. Have them post something, and when they get nagged immediately and receive no comments or votes, ask them what they think.
No I disagree that posting a comment with a relevant link has anything to do with 'allow' or not.
Your original post was perfectly allowed.
The bot comment provided additional information, without negative consequences or judgment.
Nice way to refuse to discuss if it functions as expected.
Here is how the Better project views the cheetah nagbot messages.
It costs newbies votes.
There is a direct example of the public perception of "the nagbot post".
That is the problem I am pointing out. It can't be made any clearer.
You either give a shit or you don't.
Replying to your later comment about the Better project, I would disagree with their interpretation. Cheetah commenting does not imply plagiarism. I think the creator of the Cheetah bot would disagree with their using it in that manner as well, but ultimately it is up to the Better project to do what they would like. Maybe you should take up your complaint with them?
No. I'm done wasting time on this. You made it clear you don't care about the public perception or user experience.
This is why people keep leaving.
