This is why each one of these polls ends up being a clusterfuck. Gbs is not self contained so polls are never representative.

What you appear to be saying is that GBS is terrible and any attempt to rein it in will have a positive effect. That's very controversial.

There could be individual incentives and group incentives.

Like if people want no anime for a week and everyone does it then starwars betamax could agree to live cam from a pizza hut and eat a large pizza

Stuff like that
