I can agree with that too. I don't know any other system to show more relevant comments though... The system Facebook is using with "Show newest comments" and "Show more relevant comments" is a joke too. I don't like it. If you know some better method that the Reddit's one, please write about it.

I have 0 knowledge on social media structure, but i think if we got rid of all the spam (again- strict rules about posting relevant replies in threads) and format the post structure for visibility- this itself would help a lot. You can have +1 if you agree about a reply, just don't sort stuff according to it.

I periodically check a certain mongolian basket weaving forum, and they have hyper links for each post that responds to it and there is ton of spam, you can hide posts you don't care for, its super old format and very crude yet you can navigate through it quite efficiently without ordering posts according to popularity.

also from what i recall on help forums there is a option for the OP to select a solution which will bring it to the top, so that might help with certain cases on the forum.[/quote]

Yup

in my opinion there should be a up/downvote function on this forum
but "both" should be visible only to devs/mods
so people would just simply vote and not being influenced by someone else's opinion or majority

I just voiced my opinion. You can have yours - all the power to you.

GGG decided to go with Reddit instead of their own forum. They could have improved on what they had here (for 10 years) but they didn't.

Then I'm sure you will handle this challenging situation like a pro - no need to worry.

Atm GGG is hiring also Front End Web Developer, so I guess homepage and forum will get update.

the funny thing is: i think reddit just needs a little change to work properly: "people would have to spend their favour to be able to downvote others".

Happy to see these mods will be removed and it will be reopened.

Am I missing a coincidental association to diablo 4 appearing before poe2 with this sudden upset of the core players and the change in GGG's approach to that.

Prob a page for PoE mobile xD no touches to this site

Pretty much every subreddit for every game has gone private. I've taken steps to remove reddit links from search engine results, because they're now entirely useless, I am not logging into an account to look at a section. Reddit is dead as far as I'm concerned, it no longer exists. Excommunicado.

Quora? LOL.

The current forum format with the addition of only an upvote - and if people really care about jumping through only to the highlights, a button that cycles through only posts with the relatively highest upvote count. Reddit and Facebook suppress downvoted/down-reacted comments and posts, but the forum format doesn't allow for that in my opinion, with 1. no downvoting in the first place, 2. staying true to chronology over "relevance" by showing everything that was posted across time, not in random order.
