There's an aspect of Saidit (and similar sites) that is not discussed much; for me, it boils down to "Be a good audience", by which I mean that posters with quality things to say deserve a good response. Whether you agree or not, part of the deal here is to have something to say (when it seems right to you) - dialogue is the point.

I really don't like the nastiness that Voat users occasional throw out at other users, when they disagree. Name calling is not needed to make a point, unless one is unskilled at the use of prose. They're like spoiled rich kids with no parents teaching social skills.

Sometimes someone says something so pants on head retarded that the only appropriate response is ridicule, or nothing at all. Some ridicule can be funny, but the culture here doesn't encourage it.
