RE: Testnet Testing Tools

I won't pretend to know or understand everything, but like when you say:
One thing that's on my immediate list for attention with testing is to make sure the downvote pool behaves as expected.
Other than physically "writing" an explanation of why you "may" be downvoting a particular post... do you see a better way or system possibly being implemented... in regards to downvoting?
Keep up the good work my friend!!

Hmm, I don't know. I don't even necessarily think one has to explain the downvotes either, if we have a culture of normalizing it. To me if I see one it just means the person thinks it is overvalued, and that's it. No extra judgement (although you see people that do have that extra judgement and go out of their way to add harassment on top. I never liked that). For example, you might think my current post has too much value vs what else you've seen and I wouldn't fault you for downvoting it.
I feel like it should be a requirement to when it comes to downvoting that you have to leave a comment with why. I got a small downvote the other day from a curator on one of the Tribes and couldn't tell why. I had to basically go through his entire posts to see why he did that and I came to the conclusion he probably felt I had miscategorised the post.
I am sure you have seen how posts on the EIP have been downvoted simply because people are unhappy about it, me included although I have never downvoted anybody. You should have to explain your reasons because downvotes are really discouraging.
I think it could be a common courtesy, sure. But I don't think it should be a requirement. It's also why I mention it is a culture thing. Downvotes should just be part of the experience, much like how it is on Reddit. They don't enforce explanations there either.
I am afraid unlike reddit, when what hangs in the balance is monetary value then you stand to lose more. It shouldn't be as easy to take away what someone has worked for, I feel.

A man walks into a random office and starts preparing pizza dough. He's working. Should he expect a paycheck?
If the pizza is good, hell yeah!! 😎😎 I bet he leaves with some tips.
LOL. You just murdered my analogy...
I'm just saying there's a place to make pizza where you can expect to get paid for making pizza. The office isn't that place. The manager there would say, "You sir! Why are you making a mess of my office! What is the meaning of this?"
You know what? Forget it.
😁😁 Your point came through regardless. I just feel that if someone starts making pizza in the office, let them make pizza. Everybody gets a piece to eat in the end.

Opening up testing to the wider community is massive and provides huge value, thank you very much!
