KIRK is still fighting the good fight, even after his compatriots seem to have given up. 22 negreps in the last day.
Tamar Garish agrees: 30 *threads* spamming up the forum is boring. People bitching about shit is standard here. And, no, it isn't always about negative reactions..trolling can be more complex than that. Maybe this was the case before I joined, but during that time these 'repwhine' threads have been few and far between, exactly two if memory serves. And sure, 'whining' over a few red dots is pointless and 'plays into the troll' (yeah, sure ), but then what tools does anyone have against the 'rep warriors'? Rep warring is permitted in the Red and Grey Rooms, as it should be, given the nature of the two forums. To respond in kind is a long, drawn out and pointless affair as well as waste of time. To wit, I'd rather be writing, composing music or drawing a map than use the search function and hunt down a user's posts to neg; my days of rep warring (over at TK) are over (starguard right after Nibbles passed away comes to mind). It's a waste of time that proves... what? So then again, what's with the taboo with these 'repwhine' threads? How else does one call out a 'rep warrior' as the douchebag they are? Particularly those who start frothing at the mouth when they themselves have gotten one or two negs and then retaliate with the search function (grow the fuck up, pathetic fool. Really ). "The first rule about rep is 'Don't talk about rep.'" Yeah. Whatever. Enforcing that just shows how much the 'warriors' are willing to whine themselves in these threads. In the end, the best thing about this thread is that the supposed 'whiner' has been laughing all the way to the bank, while the 'warriors' have been whining about the OP's 'whining'. Here, have some cheese. Maybe when you finish you'll realize you've been trolling each other quite nicely.
The way he follows him around here, if Rick ever put on the brakes Kirk's head would disappear right up his ass. *Ploink!*
The secret to a successful rep whine thread is to make it entertaining and disguise it so it doesn't look like a rep whine thread.
Well, get on with it then. I mean, the last person to try actually went blind. In real life. Blind. You may be different though, so go ahead, neg me to the red.
True, at max I can only take away 3,000 of Face's rep points. I estimate it will be more like 26 hundred. But that's only if noone else is inspired to jump in too. Hopefully some other people will find it funny and get on board the Great-Face-Coaster.
