Just saw how strongly downvoted this parent comment is! OP asked “Why do EA people think a thing?” And I responded with “This is why I, an EA person, think a thing.” You can disagree with my opinion, but you can’t deny that I have this opinion. I’m not obsessed with EA forum karma, but it’s kind of annoying how badly people are following discourse norms here by downvoting opinions that they simply don’t like. (There’s a disagree button for this exact purpose, people!)

i find this a strange feature of this forum tbh.
i don’t think ive ever downvoted anything?
but yeah, the best strategy is not to care imo
