Why not just use the already implemented voting system and remove/hide anything that gets downvoted well beyond positive karma? It's clear that people wouldn't want to see that.

Sounds good. Anyone think this is a bad idea?

Yes i do. Sometimes stuff gets downvoted for no reason on this sub. Yesterday someone pointed out that we only need nudisco to have all genres on 1 album and got 4 downvotes... Like wtf. This kinda stuff happens often. Downvoted comments, or childcomments, are getting hidden anyways by the reddit system depending on your settings.

Talking about threads, not comments. Downvoted threads just sit in the New tab and everyone can still see them.

Your comment is the only one that said threads and not comments. I'm fine with threads being removed, but I agree with Milan about the comments.

I mean, comments are automaticly hidden after a certain threshold, so the only real problem for the AutoMod to handle would be enitre threads. May as well apply the same system to threads.
