Yeah I've given this place an honest try but people are so quick to downvote, it's not exactly encouraging me to actively post here
Also I notice the same 10 assholes in every thread
You notice people? Even on Reddit I never noticed people's names when they comment.
Yeah but it's usually because it's the same people having a go at me every time
You should consider blocking them. Especially if they're consistently bugging you
Or just not post anymore
First thing I did here was use an adblocker to hide the "somebody responded to your post" button due to cunts. But I'm old and genuinely don't give a shit any more. ;)
I guess if you want? But this is definitely the intended usage for blocking
Exact same thing happens to me, and itβs why I donβt really post anymore.
After a quick scroll through your history, I see why those people are on your ass. π
Example?
I took a look at your comments purely because his reply made me curious. I don't think there's anything wrong with your comments. The only downvoted comment of yours I saw was that Trudeau has the worst approval rating ever, which is a matter of record, not opinion.
It's not on you, you're fine. I've had a similar experience here, people just don't seem to be able to take disagreement as anything less than personal
right? i say the most general things and people act like I'm a personal friend who knows them inside and out, offering vicious criticism of some crucial personality trait.
Like, why the fuck are you acting like I know you? How could I possibly? Monkeyass motherfuckers having a hard time with teh whole interwebs thing
lol rekt
You guys just prove my point, this place sucks
I mean, you could just leave? π
