The exception to yesterday’s post is when you don’t want further
activity on a contribution.
If the post quality is bad, misaligned with the community’s goals or
from a person you would rather not participate in your community, then don’t
respond.
Completely ignore the post. Participate in the activity you want.
Highlight this activity. Ensure other topics quickly appear above this
contribution.
It’s manipulative. Not everyone will agree. However, there is more to
ensuring high quality content than removing the bad material.
