View submission: Notice: A stronger policy of removing sub-par comments, and banning offenders, is being put into effect.

Fair enough. If my un-flaired comments are looked upon with suspicion and evaluated solely according to their merits, then that's OK. Not a bad idea for all comments, really.

r/askphilosophy is not a place for dismissive answers, sweeping generalizations...

I have seen more than a few dismissive answers as of late. To me, if there is a point on which this sub could improve, it is in ridding itself of answers which cause posters to never want to post again due to being scolded, rather than inaccurate and unsubstantive comments, which will be handled appropriately by the upvote/downvote system.

I don't think many posters avoid this sub with the thought that it is too populated by uninformed laymen.
