SO FUCKING VOTE 0 ON THEM.
If they vote 5 on "innapropriate movies", so fucking what? Who are you to deem what is appropriate for the portal and what is not. No single person is. That's why there are 200 votes required for a movie to be blammed or saved, not just one. You have no more right than Mr Joe Glock over there to decide whether the one frame flash with someone talking about anal sex is appropriate or not. Stop talking about manning the guns, getting together a bunch of people to fight against this "incoming swarm". It's fucking bullshit.
Let's say that you follow my advice, and the portal is "swamped" with 50 or so flashes. Let's say 40 of them pass. One of them might get Turd of the Week, apart from that, NOTHING WILL HAPPEN. They'll just descend into the portal never to be seen again. BIG FUCKING DEAL.
So drop like it's the coming of the apocolypse, THE SYSTEM TO "PROTECT" THE PORTAL IS IN PLACE, by creating a swarm of people to "defend" against the Glock Group YOU ARE SIMPLY FORMING A MASS-VOTING GROUP.
No other way to look at it, mass-voting to "protect the portal" is JUST AS BAD as mass-voting to spam the portal.
