I'll come back later to properly reply to these posts, if I think of a good point, but for now I wanted to point this out. On the chans, there is a vague analogue to voting in that, if you reply to a thread, it bumps it to the top as usual, but you can sage to reply without bumping. In this way, channers can flame a shit thread without giving it the bump it doesn't deserve. It's not really the same, though, not the way it is on reddit, where you can actively suppress content with voting.
