Applauds & Smites

[Trevor]

I agree, but some aren't treating it light-hearted

Just curious. Do V8C members bookmark my posts or do you actively search for my posts to click on the smite?  I only ask as I've gone up 50+ despite not posting in any active topic for a few weeks.  Nice to know I play in your head that one of your daily chores is to find an old post of mine just to smite it. .

I think you are misinterpeting the smite system. It is fuelled by the number of readers of that post, not the number of times that one actually posts. There are many more views of posts than posts made. Some members may not visit or read for weeks at a time.Take this thread for example. It currenty has 48 Replies and 1571 Views.  Yet you have a mere 436 smites, and that is the result of many other threads and many more reads.

Personally, I think the smite system is rubbish.
But you seem to care about it, possibly due to low self esteem and the need to be applauded.

Although I don't like the system, I can easily understand that a lot of members get pissed off with some of the crap posted. The quoted post and REM's following are good examples of crap.

I just might be tempted to commence to smite someone.


Much better, the string needs to be locked.

Oh dear another one that thinks they know better.

I don't care about the numbers.  I'm curious how many waste their time searching for old, buried posts just to increase them, what surely seems out of spite.

Personally, I just find it amusing that I get 'smited' so much.  In other words I couldn't give a flying ****

It's pretty funny watching people get so worked up over something so meaningless which is supposed to be light hearted.

Even more comical watching you precious red boys jacking up the numbers of something so meaningless.

an interesting accusation... what actual facts do you have to back this claim up?

seriously, if somebody clicking a meaningless button on an anonymous webpage bugs then perhaps a re-evaluation is in order?

supposed to be a bunch of adults in here, not 12 year olds. let's lift our game folks!

The fact that I can see who's online when my numbers go up.

It also doesn't take a genius to notice the blue fans have a disproportionate amount of smites compared to the red babies applauds.

It doesn't bug me. It is quite amusing seeing those that pretent to be the mature adults are the same ones going out of their way to dig out an old post to smite it.

As I said before. I thank Laser for having the Karma feature installed.  It has flushed out the hypocrites.
