17 hours later, it is revealed that what you have created is a system whereby assent and agreement are visible immediately but dissent and criticism are put in the corner for 12 hours to contemplate their inharmonious discord.
I will definitely respond to dissent and criticism if there's the likelihood that a good conversation will result. I am fine with shitty comments sitting in the corner for 12 hours. No ever told me they like Hubski for the shitty baiting comments. We also have to opportunity to edit an improve upon our comment in the interim, if we chose.
Inflammatory comments setting to the wayside may be worth a try. When I coached high school soccer I learned to emphasize the “24 hour rule” to all players and parents. I explained it in this way, “We’ll often be dealing in highly charged emotional states, so as I make decisions about games, your position and playing time during games perhaps, I ask of you to agree to allowing 24 hours to pass before we discuss concerns. That way we’ll all have had time for our emotions to fade and we’ll be better equipped to reasonably work out the differences. I’ve learned to make it a regular habit in my life and don’t plan on going back.
