this site would be better without upvotes/downvotes. here's why:

  1. Echo chambers and Groupthink

2+2 = 5, 1984 etc, etc

  1. Bandwagon Effect

self explanatory

  1. Disincentive for participation:

users will fear giving any controversial feedback in fear of their reputation around the site, it will just create a disengagement and a narrowing of perspectives on the forum.

  1. Manipulation and brigading:

Multiple accounts such as a certain nationality, can be easily used to coordinate or artificially boost or suppress certain post. much like the media of the world today, it reduces integrity and visibility of certain posts., and just creates an unnecessary factor; removing upvotes/downvotes is an easy way to remove the problem.

  1. Emotional impact and toxicity (worst reason but I had to include) :

This doesn't really matter for some people, some may call you a snowflake for caring about stupid downvotes on a niche internet forum, and they're right. touch some grass. but its still something that can occur.

  1. Oversimplification of complex topics:

upvotes/downvotes tend to reduce complex discussions to a binary choice of approval or disapproval, oversimplifying nuanced topics. (I'm right / you're wrong mentality, there's never a state where people agree to disagree.)

  1. Unfair judgment of content:

Upvotes and downvotes are mostly subjective and are influenced by personal biases - popularity - the timing of a post. leads to valuable content being overlooked + unpopular but important viewpoints being buried.

  1. deterioration of constructive discussions

you only got alot of chances. its up to you to take them. the chances you get are only confined to the life you are living rn, however long you live that is what you have.

sorry for your loss bro. everyone reading this needs to understand ; hopelessness is not the answer, you might find yourself in this mindset, you might find no way out, and realise that hopelessness is never the answer, it defies all rational thought whether you are the smartest most intelligent human, or whether you are the most determined.

probably should've changed LOUD to MIBR or FURIA. see, thats how irrelevant those teams are that i forgot about them.

all can be fixed by 1 solution:

having mutiple matches at the same time.

like realistically, who wants to watch KRU vs LOUD if 100T vs NRG is going on.

It takes a long time to realize how miserable you are, and even longer to see that it doesn't have to be that way.

would be nice for the viewers tho, each team actually has something to fight for.

they should start with 1 team and see how it goes.

TexMex is supposed to be a fusion of Texas and Mexican cuisine, but this recipe is a complete disaster. Just like Tex's gameplay, it's lacking any real flavor or finesse. It's as if someone blindfolded themselves, stumbled into the kitchen, and started throwing random ingredients together. No sense of balance or skill whatsoever.

i agree 100% it will have an impact, but i dont think that it could significantly change our lives. e.g. the internet has definitely derived many possibilities; it has been solving the problem of global connectivity. yet i dont think AI can come close to that but i do think it will be near it.

Bro I’m not talking about art 😅

AI art is a very small yet noticeable result of AI but I’m talking about the grand scheme of things due to AI in our everyday lives and the corporate world.
