** Shill Button **             MAGA            
posted ago by Bubbaguhnoose ago by Bubbaguhnoose +463 / -3

In addition to the deport button, there should be a "shill" button that changes the color of the "shill" user's name. The higher the shill-to-upvote ratio a user has, the color of the user's name changes from the standard blue to pink. A bright pink or magenta color easily alerts TDW that the user is a known shill. I think this or some variation of this idea would be very beneficial.

Spez: to prevent mass manipulation, Mods could limit "shill button" use to once every 24 hours. And grandfather the ability in to only current TDW accounts. Plenty of options to help prevent misuse. Just throwing ideas out there after the mods updated TDW format this morning.

This is not why people left reddit.

And this is also not censorship. Deporting and blocking people is more censorship than this proposal.

There are plenty of solutions. Mods could grandfather the "shill button" feature in for current TDW users only to prevent mass manipulation. Or limit "shill button" use to only once per 24 hours. Other options. No need to be a douche.
