later somebody asked me to explain it and they said that town!chemist doesn't respond super well to pressure that way so i unvoted

i'm not sure what you're asking/expecting of me here
Ok. So you think a vote itself has basic pressure value, even if it’s announced as a pressure vote?

But you didn’t vote when announcing it as pressure, your unvote came later. Which means you think that a vote has inherent pressure, right?

I want to understand her opinion on pressure votes. I don’t think votes have inherent pressure. I think votes only have pressure if they have basis.

Pedit:
I disagree

Why not use your vote in the mean time to pressure someone else other than Chemist?

because i didn't know where else to vote so i just voted there while i try to sort it out
i posted my reads at just about the same time and if you notice i said i didn't have scumreads really on anyone other than ss and i wanted to take a step back there

i feel like you're treating this as a permanent / intent-to-wagon vote when that's not what it was, and i feel like i've been clear as to just what kind of vote it was

Ok why not vote any of the other names that have no read next to them on your list?

I mean isn’t it a little? You said to Menalque you were going to vote there again if he doesn’t give you/Menalque what you want. Plus you also quoted his YouTube trash thing with a similar type comment.

and yes if someone fails to live up to the pressure it becomes a real vote

okay, but what about those 3 gives you gut reads on them and not on others? like what in their posting has given you those gut reads?

yeah, I saw, I just didn't feel like answering because I wanted to talk to other people at that point. the answer is: not sure. sorry. I imagine that when I do my readslist it will help me clarify where exactly bingle is for me atm

i mean i feel like it was fairly clear?
i voted him as a pressure vote cuz i feel like he's lurking and not providing content
mena says that town!him reacts poorly to that sort of pressure so i backed off, but said if he didn't step it up i'd vote him again

I don't want it explained with logic, but like if I'm giving a gut read I can normally still point to which posts helped contribute to it and give an idea of what it was that was in them that hit me one way or another, so I'm just looking for that basically
