does anyone DISLIKE the speech balloon, av-says-the-post style??

if you dislike something that people are batting around, MENTION THAT. failure to support it does not look like opposition. no one will get offended. and you need to have a forum you dont hate to look at

i was thinking about it on a train ride a couple weeks ago, and it struck me that the only 2 built-in systematic things we have on the forums to combat harassment are ignore and reports, and both are stigmatized as baby narc trash

and ive been turning that around in my head ever since

It is by far the best idea that has been posted in this thread. I was going to emptyquote the guy who first mentioned it but a bunch of other people already did.

I understand the problems with the speech bubble idea, so perhaps making the speech bubble indicator in line with the av would work instead

Unless we can find a way to make the av quote thing not take up that much space, I would be firmly against it. If we can make it take up minimal space, that would be fine.
