2. ? did you rec this or are the paid unrec shills out on it already?

 

Frank, could you ask your fellow alum how it feels to constantly be confronted with accusations that paid unrec shills dominate his life's work.

43. It doesn't matter
 Focus on the topic of the thread. Not on the perceived injustice of unrec vs. rec. Serenity Now.

 It is not like you get bonus points in life if people rec your threads.

47. The old, "How dare anyone UnRec MY OP!!" The DU obsession with Rec/UnRec continues.
 Kicking a thread means way more than a Rec because you can do it multiple times, day after day.

64. But if the un wreckers succeed in keeping the rec's below five; 
 Edited on Tue Oct-11-11 03:17 PM by ooglymoogly
that can keep an important post off the front page. I have seen as many as 50 un wrecks (and there are probably more) on a thread, keeping it at zero. So it IS an important subject to comment on. Un wrecks can be and are a form of censorship and if mounted for that purpose is cynical and unhealthy to say the least. To imply that they do not matter is a bit empty headed or worse.

70. if it is a good OP....
 then it will get its ****ing recs, and if not it won't. Constant whining about unreccers is terribly annoying, especially when you look back and see that this thread now has 187 recs.

You don't get bonus points? Too bad you're not a member here. We get $10 for each Hi5 and $5 for each bitchslap. The only drawback is $1 out of every $5 bitchslap has to go to Dutch.

WHAT THE hell are they talking about?

WHAT THE hell are they talking about?

If a thread gets enough recs it automatically gets framed on their main page under "Greatest Hits"

However, because chronic marijuana use induces paranoia they believe the Koch brothers are paying roving hordes of RW activists to unrec threads they think should be high-lighted to be read by others.

I don't know about my fellow CC'ers but I seldom, if ever, visit their main page. I just bounce from one forum to another directly.

Same here.

Whether franksolich is just lurking there, or whether franksolich's mole is actually moling there, I never pay attention to the front page, instead immediately going to the particular forum of interest.

Same here. I have the General Forum link saved and navigate to others from it.

Getting something of yours on DU's main page is the equivalent of having your artwork stuck to the fridge by mom & dad. And thats all there is to it.

[GOBUCKS]

So DUmmy douchebagger scenumbers is being surrounded by an army of bloodthirsty latter-day Bull Connors.

He puts out an urgent alarm to the DUmp, and what happens?

His fellow DUmbasses immediately start squabbling over "unrecs".

Complaining about bitch slaps leads to getting more of them. I'm sure the same is true for unrecs over there.

Dutch probably thinks that's not a bad deal!

At least here, when someone issues a BS, they usually announce it.
Like "BS for posting a stoopid comment" or "H5 because I agree with you".

One of the fine qualities, and a superior training tool for n00bies. that I admire about CC'

Yeah, I look at it as contributing to his retirement plan.

Well I H5'd that cause it made me laugh. 

How I wish that the DUmp would implement the BS/H5 system.  At least for just a few days, until it would inevitably have to be unplugged.  Can you imagine the fun?

That made me wonder when that custom started. When I was a kid, it was never done.

One reason is that, until recently, making each individual kid think he's the center of the universe wasn't an adult priority.
Culturally, that's the worst thing that ever happened in America, and proof of that is the self-important brats you see in the streets right now.

But mainly it's because years ago you couldn't buy those little magnets.

That says it all,so many under 35 expect that whatever bad thing has happened must be made whole for them by someoen else.
Car breaks down and it has to be fixed for little or nothing,etc.

That is what you see with the whining dirtbags,"I don`t have it good enough so someone needs to make me happy".

**** em.

The only artwork of my daughter's that's on the fridge is an America flag with her hand prints on it.  She made that when she was six months old and I just love it and refuse to take it down.  It's a construction paper flag with glitter for the stars and three hand prints (red, white and blue) in the middle of it.

Um, every day my kids do something at school or daycare and I put on the fridge.  It stays up a week and then down it goes into a memory box. 

Jeep loves to paint me scenes with his palms

We have an artwork box too.  All of her art goes in there.  Carleigh recently made a pumpkin with construction paper and decorated it, but it's not on the fridge.  It's on the wall though.  Once Halloween passes, I'll put it away.  If I put all of her artwork on the fridge, you would never be able to get in and retrieve any food.

Ellen draws stuff every day.  Multiple drawings.  She puts them up.

Thank you.  H5.

I think others thought I was actually complaining about bitchslaps here... but just comparing the "who BS'ed me?' to the 'who unrec'ed me?" 

[ChuckJ]

wait-a-minute!

i get paid $5 each for my Hi5's. I PAY $10 for BS, $1 does indeed go to dutch though.

That'll change after you get more posts built up. Except for the $1 bitchslap tax to dutch. They talked about dropping it down to 75 cents once because of the economy. When they told dutch he bitchslapped the board so hard that all the posters showed up as chris_.

Dutch is to bitchslaps as Chuck Norris is to roundhouse kicks.
