If you are doing it private, how could we know about it? Maybe everyone isn't misreading you but you are misrepresenting yourself? I know I don't remember you jumping on the Kikey Mikey and Pedo Ray bullshit when it first started up or any time after. Not saying you didn't do it, but I've never seen it. Whereas again, after a week you are complaining about the 'M-O-O-N meme.'
A.k.a. "damning with faint praise." I also like how you jumped all over Big Brave Sokar for addressing an active service member in harm's way as "Gomer Pyle" and making defamatory statements about his wife.
They all suck. Just like Hagamet, ghoulamet, Margaret et al. sucked and her special "there is no poster of that name" shit sucked. Tourette's trolling just sucks no matter what is being said. Pedo Ray...no I only started in on that in the last month or so because it's become overused and annoying. When I saw the kikey shit, I was negging it..but I am only here so much and I don't read everything. I'm glad actormike is back and I'm glad he doesn't let that stupidity drive him off.
For the most part I would agree with you. However its generally required for a successful troll for the target(s) to blow a gasket. It's not happening here. If anything his targets are replying with muted disdain. In other words they aint giving back to him the same he gave out.
What's the over/under on Sokar's revisiting this thread to announce that he's full of win for the usual reasons?
That must be it. Otherwise she'd be lecturing Sokar about how "Rep is just little red and green squares on a screen and it's silly to be upset about them."
Here's what I think Sokar, I think those little red and green pixels on the screen are extremely valuable to you. See that's what makes negging you fun, I personally don't give a damn about rep, but folks like you and Kirk and Tasvir put such value on it that it makes it worthwhile to take it away from you. You're right, Kirk should man up and come back, nothing was taken from him but the ability to "attack" posters that he doesn't like. Same for Tasvir, and I suspect, same for you. I haven't tried to silence you, the very idea is ridiculous. I'm just giving you a taste of what you love to dish out. Or were you not the poster with the list of people he had "ran off"? So, here's the deal, I don't think you can function on this board without your precious reps. I think it's that important to your ego to have the "power". I have 18,691 rep points, you have what is it, 8,000? Let's go, each of us full red, no take backs, no returns. Rep means nothing to me, what's it mean to you? *Admins, take me red on the condition that Sokar makes his formal request that we be set to oh I don't know, -8,000 points.
Dude, Sokar, if any of the other rep whine babies made a thread like this, you'd rip them a new one. Why make a new bitch thread and attract even MORE attention?
It's listed in your User CP above the latest rep you've received. You can also see it when you try to rep one of your own posts. Instead of the "agree/disagree" box, it says how many rep points you have.
That was never true! He was merely "memorializing" people who ran away or who were run off. It was almost never his doing and he never claimed to have done it. He just was mocking them for tucking tail. That is just one of those lies repeated so often people begin to believe it.
He did the same thing back in '08, the last time someone started a rep war against him. Back then his argument was "I own them, because they spend time negging me." The irony was lost on him then, as it is now.
I doubt it...a troll just doesn't care and will justify their actions any way they can. Why do you think three or four people will jump up and declare people who use ignore are pussies or people who turn of their rep are pussies...because it costs them power and control if people just ignore them.
I think you must be right. The whole 'Sokar got people to laugh at him, he's a master troll' schtick she's been maintaining in this thread is too retarded for it to be otherwise.
Did you even read the fucking posts I repped (which I'd actually forgotten I'd rep until you commented)? Just because he had two good points doesn't mean it wasn't stupid idea to make this thread,and I've almost always rep the post versus the poster--and that includes you.
Wasn't that Cass who did that? I think he did that to call her out on the hypocrisy of proclaiming to be above rep wars, then go on a day-long negging spree on him. That was back when my Internet was turned off, so maybe I have the details wrong.
This thread is highly amusing. "Warriors fight, longsword in hand. Valleys drink from the open wounds of a thousand men".
Mmmm, I just got a bag of Buc-ees beef jerky and it sure is good. Best stuff on the planet. Anyhoo... So, Sokar popped a gasket. After years of negging the chickens have come home to roost and the result is..... This. Attempting to paint this as anything but a :repwhine: thread are absolutely useless otherwise it would have never happened. Sokar is butthurt. I for one was bone tired of the memes like Kikey Mikey, PedoRay, etc. Every fucking thread devolved into this shit. Every. Fucking. One. Still am and will make it known every time it's used at least ten times. Don't like that tough shit. If it devolves to a war then again, so be it because while I do appreciate my rep, I don't feel it's the reason I get up in the morning, ya know? I've brought in two people recently. They're both gone. I suspect this crap was the reason. If I'm expected to recruit then I expect a bit more resolve from people not to take a shit in every thread. It may be the Red Room where it's allowed but for fucks sake, is this the only reason you guys have to come here, is to throw this pre-teen shit at each other ad nauseum? I skip as much of it as I can but really, give that a shit a fucking rest. We've had some decent thought provoking posters bail on us over it and I'm a bit tired of slapping bandaids. Anyway, that's my peace, take it or leave it.
