I need to add to this that blocking is not the answer. Actively down vote if your instance allows. The practices discussed here passively harm artists.

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.
- Limit of two posts per person per day.
- Bots aren't allowed.
- Banned users will have their posts removed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

It would be cool if we had a web of trust. So if everyone you've been upvoting keeps downvoting someone, then that someone's posts are hidden by default.
Example:

Here's a long rambling story that looks like it might be interesting...[pages]
... and that's why we should expand child labor.
I rarely block, but I tag with Voyager. That way I'm not missing any conversation, I'll see a warning for comments likely to be disingenuous, and they don't live rent-free in my head.
