Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

If people stopped downvoting memes, they probably wouldn't have to delete and make new accounts all the time.
Massive amounts of downvotes display as warnings next to the username on certain instances, and this will attract more downvotes. There's possibly also a posting limit for people with huge amounts of downvotes, and more of a chance of instances hiding these posts.
If their memes are being downvoted maybe that means they aren’t wanted?
Usually it just means that the topic of the meme/comic/etc is divisive somehow.
I'm pretty sure this poster is the same one who posted these a few weeks ago.

They get a lot of ⚠️ next to their usernames and just seem to post comics and delete their account to make a new one and do the same thing every however long.
In case you are unaware, I'm referring to an ongoing person trolling the comics comm, it's been an active trend for the past month or so.
Edit: This comment thread picked up 2 ppl downvoting me and upvoting the other commentor immediately. Checking the vote ids, of course it's OP and their sibling day old account. Yay for vote manipulation.
Good thing that votes here have no meaning either.
People still can't help but get attached to them.
