20 sats \ 5 replies \ @Undisciplined OP 19 Oct \ parent \ on: Zapping More Might Solve Our Leader Board Wizard Issue meta
In the same way that zapping is analogous to an upvote, downzapping is like downvoting. If you click on the three little dots next to a post or comment, you'll see the option to downzap that item.
If enough people with enough trust downzap something, it will become "outlawed". Outlawed items are substantially less visible than normal content.
Would you be able to see if your post or comment was downzapped? And can you still see the outlawed posts if you wanted to? Sometimes I could see people getting downzapped for being politically incorrect or triggering some of the other members. Sometimes, the outlawed posts may be interesting in themselves, if even controversial.

You cannot see if your posts or comments were downzapped. Several people have requested to be able to see that.
If you enable Wild West mode in your settings, then you can see outlawed content. I had it on for a long time, but the outlawed stuff really is just spam most of the time. Maybe someday we'll have more interesting outlaws.

Maybe if you made more than one way to downzap people could understand which is spam, which is politically incorrect and which is just plain silly. Could you do a dropdown menu on how to downzap a post or comment? That would give some more information to the people looking at the posts. BTW, I haven’t enabled the Wild West feature, yet.

I haven't seen anything get outlawed for being politically incorrect or silly. Downzapping costs sats so people are pretty judicious about it.

That is a relief to hear. There is a lot of that silliness going on at the moment, everywhere else.
