Haters - you know who you are

Welcome to the competative world of Joe User

from JoeUser Forums
Personally, i dont use the trolling feature... i dont like to put other people down... if they are idiots, they wont get up in the ranks...

Now, i recently reached top 10... no mean feat, i know... but it is still somewhat of an acheivment, it means i am cool amongst bloggers.

I suppose someone has a gripe against me hardcore to the max - they must be dead set losers to go through all my blog and say i am trolling to dock me points, because i lost over 800 points in the space of 3 hours... omfg losers.

I have nothing against you personally whoever did it, or whether it was a consortium of people... but you really need to get a life, and focus on your writing attracting an audience, rather than bringing other people down.

I have built my bridge, and i am over it... i just thought that a forum would be a place you could go to escape the haters of this world...

BAM!!!

I feel for you Muggaz... i'm trying to work my way into the top ten as well, and i'm not gonna stop Bloggin until i make it. Losing 800 pts in a day would suck royally, and i agree with you that the perps should be ashamed of themselves.

I agree with ya.. i don't use or believe in the trolling feature, and will never use it...

I don't recall ever using the trolling feature, but I am considering it. I've used the other one, but only when something specific has actually made me go 'oh yeah!!!' in either utter disbelief, agreement or disagreement. I think the trolling feature is useful for those few jerks who just feel the need to comment either to earn points or give pain on purpose.
The point system is interesting. I don't have any extreme goals in regards to achieving a certain level; but hell, it's there. I can't help but notice what articles do best. Ultimately, I just like writing, period. Opinions are good as they add to the 'conversation', but the point system can detract from a person's initial interest of putting words down in the name of self-expression.

Someone great once said "Trolling is as trolling does." - I think it was Bill Gates.

I remember an event in the early days of Joe User when my points plummeted into negative territory. It was like - 10,000 I suspected one Brad Allan of anointing me with copious troll citations, it was a simple investigation, he was involved in my last post before the drop, therefore I indicted him, then I tried and sentenced him, all in the frame of three minutes. I repeatedly zapped the suspected offender Brad Allen with massive doses of troll citations, he plummeted into negative territory with me, and I have never used the button other than that time.

Its a good feature to have, thats for sure, and i am positive i would have said something to make a few people angry, but some mofo has taken the time to go through all my crap and deduct 800!!!!!!

I wonder if the powers that be would take the liberty to investigate for me...

Thanks for your comments.

Poet : I have some chinese kids that do the same for $0.06, and they can also write a comment:

"Your words are my words, I believe in you greatness, master ...." for an extra $0.02.

It's a new web site, google "Top10Joeuser.com",

I am one that has never taken points from anyone....yet I do give points for insightful or interesting articles. I really don't keep track of my points but would notice if I dropped all of the sudden.

That happened to me as well. You shouldn't go trying to bring down the points of those who are suspects though, because Brad will correct it (that's why I'm no longer in rank 2000 something), but if you abuse the trolling thing too, that'll just make you an abuser of the system as well.

Muggaz, just read your comment on that other article. Emerill Legassi is a famous chef with a cooking show. Every time he "kicks it up a notch" with spices, he yells "BAM!" Just imagined you thinking "this will kick it up a notch...BAM!!"

hehe... Jill.. same concept...

There is a chef on the Fox TV show Futurama... he also BAMs... but its generally when making witty remarks :)

And on the trolling, i also haven't used it once... Messy... did brad let you know who it was?
Reply #14 from JoeUser Forums Top
That's what I think of when I see that too, although since I first saw that on Futurama, I think of that alien chef doing the BAM! thing.

This is outrageous. This should not be allowed to happen. Personally, I think it's time for the troll feature to either die or have safeguards put into it to prevent this sort of things from ever happening again.

Should we all go around clicking "insightful" on Muggaz's articles to boost him back up?

May be there should be a top 10 trolling users. Usually, I don't like the name and shamed strategy but it could be fun...
Reply #17 from JoeUser Forums Top
haha... the blame game doesn't get anyone anywhere...

nice suggestion smartaz... but i am confident in my own abilities to attract an audiece... I have great shock value.

BAM!!!

muggaz, that's horrible. you come into my blog and spread your sunshine so often !. i enjoy your comments and i know you take the time to read and understand. i think it's revolting that something like that could happen to you. if there is a way to trace it, i suggest you ask brad to look into it.

this world never ceases to amaze me. we think up new ways to shit on each other every day.

This is funny stuff to read. I agree there should be a list of such people whose use is exceptional. Think ___ would show up on it? I wonder at someone who would spend so much time doing this though. What, a defective gene or something? Parents must be late again and he/she wants to go get the game rental, or dinner, so is taking it out on the world.

I understand how the top 10 can become a goal also and loved watching my site go from 1,500 to 1,400 etc. till I got to the top 10 and no prize came. Eventually, you get so many outside links to your blog, it really can't hamper you though, so don't worry about it. I mean outside this site, who even knows your only 257 ranked or cares?

As to 'Bam', I first encountered the term when a girl walked behind me and I kept hearing her say, "Bam, Bam, Bam..." and realized it was every time I took a step. And I'm a dude too. I have an Oxford dictionary (16,000 pages) and will have to put it on list to look up the origin and true historical intent of it. Wonder if some monk in the 14th century was walking behind his Brother and came up with, "bam"... Matter of fact, I'll get on this important matter right now.
I got to say, I heard Homer Simpson as popeye yesterday saying as he rode a donkey, who was fading under his weight, " I need some fuel for my mule. Some gas for me ass." It was so funny I had to tell someone, so there. Goodnight and thank you. You've been a wonderful crowd.

Maybe look into some involvement with Iran... there is a big city there called Bam... I plan on purchasing it, and making it a lovenest of some sort.

Your Little effort to knock me down has failed.
