I can feel your pain about Johan doing his thing, but comparing his belt checking crusade to a child molester might be a bit far fetched. One would think that an ex UFC fighter wouldn't get so upset over a swedish guy who has a profile picture of a chinese guy wearing headgear...
It was an example of just letting someone get away with bad behavior, not a comparison.
And maybe Im upset because of his ethnic misappropriation and blatant racism? ....or, maybe I take slights of Integrity and my word very seriously.

Ok so down voting is ok, if you feel the down voter revenge voted you?
I would do the same no matter who was revenge downvoted. Where I don't classify downvoting revenge voters as revenge voting in itself.
Beltchecker has been explicitly open to the possibility of members joining forces in their voting. However, it seems pretty much like herding cats, so perhaps it won't ever happen, no matter how I or anyone else tries. If I see something that I think needs to evolve, I at least try. That's actually how our entire sport came about (not with me personally evolving it, but you hopefully get the point).

That's actually just the way I look trying to make an ironically exaggerated me-so-badass-face, dressed in equally silly attire and with no thought of appropriating any particular ethnicity. Perhaps it's associating that ugly face with an ethnicity which is blatant racism :-)
The intended message is rather along the lines of what R. David Gonzalez summarized: I take Beltchecker seriously, but try not to take Beltchecker or myself too seriously.

Ok so down voting is ok, if you feel the down voter revenge voted you? I get it you want to uphold a 'higher' standard. You do you why do you feel the need to rally people to your side? You created a thread about Remco and now this. As you have already said this is an isolated incident but remarkably it seems that it happened to you and when it did you felt the need to enlist support, I can be a dick and an asshole but I own it
As a fellow New Jerseyan I reflect and support this message. 😂

Revised
1. Respect the Kool-Aid tap.
2. Clip Lloyd Irving‘s toenails because he wants that.
3. Raise your hand to the ego lord In sky after you smash somebody. And open up your gi and show your breasts.
4. Age your belts with a metal comb so everybody thinks your old-school and good.

By the way I am all for violence and some here consider themselves martial artists and some fighters, and much as to a carpenter everything looks like a nail to a fighter every conflict looks like a fight. The thing is violence should only be an option when reason fails and the dispute is worth it.
Gabe is a legit Black belt and I don't think even Johan (not the whale) can even dispute that. This is not something to resort to violence over as it is pretty much ridiculous to fight over something that really isn't disputed.
As to Ralph lets face it this is a site dedicated to BJJ and the style was bought to the world by the Gracies and sorry but in the history of the family they are known for tall tales and violence. Much of the community still idolizes them so the history of BJJ is one of lies and violence not peaceful discord

I still get slapped. In fact, he slapped Dave Camarillo, who slapped Jared Feierabend, who then slapped me. The slaps go down the chain.

I’ve seen several people downvote and mention they would change their vote once evidence was uploaded but they never do even after the evidence has been uploaded.

Easy to miss with the Beltchecker interface, so please remind me if you see one of my downvotes that no longer matches the present state of the profile!

I said "moist" to my wife yesterday, and she said, "ugh, I hate that word." I could not help but rattled out the lines from LetterKenny when they mock people for hating that word. Haha.
