Right, these one word posts are driving me nuts.

Someone says something funny and that is folloed by 1 or 2 posts of LOL or LMAO. Just rate the post and save me having to read your BS.

Another one is 'Oh I agree man'. So I look up to see if the person has given the other member deserved karma by rating, but oh no.

McGee does this all the time, farking yank. Just give the poor little fuckers some karma and save me having to read l33t talk.

Yeah I'm going to agree with you, COLINWALL is another offender to this but personally think they are trying to get their post count up or something but either way it really annoys me, this is what the ratings are there for!

I'm ok with it if he explains why he agrees but to just say I agree, or some other one word/one emoticon post really grinds my gears and I did start giving people redundants when I saw they done it but now I don't have any karma left and it hardly leaves abit enough dent in their karma for them to be bothered anyway.

What when somebody posts a pic of a bike and you (I)reply: "nice Thumbs Up "?

Does that pee you off Neutral

It sure does.

You just rate the persons post as a thumbs up and agree or cool, rather than just a little answer that takes no thought at all and no1 realy bothers reading.

EDIT: And I havnt been 'pee'd off' since primary school!

But it takes more effort to type a reply, rather than click twice to give a rating. I think I'd rather receive posts than ratings Neutral

Posts saying:

'Nice'. 'I agree'. 'Cool'. 'LMAO'. Or other such non posts?

There is absolutely no point in them. Ok I accept if you were showing a picture of your bike it may be acceptible to say 'Nice bike'.

Other than that there is no need at all.

Was just seeing if you were talking to me, just answered that question on the guess it was. And dont talk to me about computers even the word computer bores the fuck outta me.

Much rather be out doing something rather than tapping keys.

By the looks of things you are a glory supporter so why aint you outside on your day off playing the best sport in the world?

I see where you're coming from. I guess for some threads there's a fine line between a useless one-word post and a meaningful one-word post.

Another annoying thing is when someone's got pages of shit they've copied and pasted into their profile.

That's what the ratings are there for but if they rate anything and everything (handing out ratings can make your karma go up) all the time, the best you can hope for is a reply saying "Will rate this later when I've got Karma".

Silly Yanks. Rolling Eyes

Says the man sitting at his pc moaning about the way people post because it affects your internet reading

Quote:

Ok easy answer is go and do as you preach, go out on your bike and dont bother to read posts on the internet,
You really need to change your PC habits if reading a post about a complimentary "that's nice m8 " gives you so much rage that you feel the need to make a stupid post about it.
