Because it's like a dozen fucking people who post 90% of the content. I blocked like, I dunno -- 20 people, and it took care of MOST of the weird ass fetish stuff popping up in my feed, leaving the odd cutie here or there.

I'd rather have a severe lack of farmed content, for a lot more genuine posts. Regardless of if it's "dead" or not. If I see users with like 20k post points, and 100 comment points, I block them.

If there was a way to automatically do this (only show content from users with a certain ratio of posts to comments), I would.

So if you post content and never comment you should be blocked? Weird way of operating.

How is that weird? Most normal people comment far more than they post content. It's content and link farmers, as well as bots who have the ratios that they do when it comes to posts vs comments.

Like you... thumbsnap, thumbsnap, thumbsnap, thumbsnap... same fucking domain over and over again. Just farming up hoovered content, stripping original authors and lacking credit on where the content came from. You're a great example, thanks for the reply.

It’s an image host. What host do you prefer?
