| Oct 11, 2019 at 9:07 | comment | added | Caleb | @JourneymanGeek I'm pretty sure there aren't 1500+ visitors coming in from The Register with enough rep to downvote on meta. | |
| Oct 11, 2019 at 8:57 | comment | added | Journeyman Geek | I wonder how the traffic correlates to the news articles on the register... | |
| Oct 11, 2019 at 8:55 | comment | added | Caleb | I think the traffic is a symptom, not a cause. This doesn't explain why this is such a big deal to people, only shows that it is. Yes, many moderator resignations were related to how this got rolled out, mishandling Monica's case, etc. Yet at the same time speaking for myself and at least a few other moderators, no matter how gracefully this had been introduced it would still have been a big deal (and we would still have had to resign) because it represents a change in kind, not just of degree. I think that's what the stats reflect. This isn't just another tweak. | |
