> Why not let the others here decide what they think is interesting Weird that you cannot spot the contradiction here. Why not let others here decide what they think shouldn't be here instead of upvoting crap posts? Other people are abusing the upvote button by voting for content that should not be here. > This is not Reddit. The quality over the past week has been lousy. |

We do not have a downvote button. Major news is allowed here.
This is an active story that a lot of people is interested in, and this means that a lot of posts about it is upvoted.
Shouldn't the flag button only be about things that are not allowed? Not as a way to remove things you find not interesting?
The issue here is that the upvoting is democratic. One person flagging posts based on his opinions (and as you can see in this thread, your opinions are not the same as others, imagine that!) and them getting completely removed because of it is not democratic.
If you don't like things, don't upvote them. They get upvoted because others like them. How can this be so hard to understand?
Your opinion of the quality of the posts here is not what should decide what posts others read!
