[X] My Assistant

I think we can all agree that he adds nothing of value to this forum and is actually more annoying than most other posters.

I seek pleasure from and rather enjoy being a detriment to online societies.

Even me?

You've been lifted from tard to stooge.

Nobody adds anything of value in the General Discussions part of the forum. Where the hell have seen contributions here the would otherwise prove me wrong!?!

Hold on—NEVER underestimate the tard factor on this site. Y'see, with the tard factor, things don't have to fit.

You're so quick to callously call others a "tard" but if you look at that Today's Top Posters link at the bottom of the forums page, you'll notice you only speak out of experience from being the number one tard here pretty much everyday since you've been here.

I am sorry, Rob. I do not understand that line of logic. Look, don't get all indignant just by virtue of the fact that I am effectively Coco's advocate. You bust balls—you gotta get your balls busted, right?

I would love to bust my balls in your adorable little mouth, DeeDeekins.

That's the ticket~!

Then I'd like to bust open your head and indulge myself with your tasty gray matter as I beat off down your throat.

Hey, Rob? You gotta do somethin' about this. But it's not drugs—that's not the answer for you. No, I think, um... Jesus Christ. I rarely give out Jesus's name—He asked me to stop talkin' about Him on the internet. But, I think in Rob's case, you may wanna find Him.

I believe Nietzsche said it best, "God is dead".

Naw, I have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
I'm gonna go talk to Him after He's out of the shower.
This's my only chance to beat off—He can't hear me in there.

I have imaginary people in my house too. Only they don't mind when I masturbate and sometimes join along with me.

You both need to just go away for about three days :<

No?

Rob can stay, D^3 must go.

I like it when you say my name, Boggy. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/blush.gif)

I've actually have plans this month that don't involve me coming here. About fucking time too.

Good onya, mate.

Just so you guys know that I am indeed working on the K- thread, here is a preview of the first post. Suggestions are welcome.

There are many problems with the E-Hentai karma system. I'm not going to bother listing them all because that would take too long and I would probably forget a number of them.

Of the numerous problems, there are only a few which any individual user has the power to fix. The biggest and most important of these is that is that members are tacitly forbidden to imbue other members with negative karma. This fix to this is simple: Give people more negative karma. (If you don't believe that members are forbidden to K- others, I recall seeing one prominent member get K-'ed by another because that member was being an ass by K-'ing a third member. You can probably find that exchange in the Karma comment thread if you care...)

I can, for no reason, K+ any random member and reasonably expect a K+ in return, but I'm not allowed to K- someone who acts like a dick? There is something seriously wrong with that.

The purpose of this thread is to rectify this problem. As the karma system should be a reflection of the quality of a poster, if we can direct the collected wrath of those who care at those who deserve it, then maybe the red karma they collect can somewhat offset the masses of green karma that a member is bound to accumulate or has already accumulated.

Summary: Bad posters deserve big red numbers. Our job is to give it to them.

Of course such a thread needs guidelines.

Now, I would argue that a poster needs no objective reason to K- another, but for the sake of avoiding undue criticism, it makes sense for THIS thread to require posters to have a tangible reason.

ALL NEGATIVE KARMA FROM THIS THREAD MUST BE AUTHORED. i.e. NO ANONYMOUS K-'ING.

Now, what I propose is not an exhaustive list of possible reasons and is liable to be changed due to feedback, but here is what I think deserves negative karma:

1) Spamming the forums- There are many definitions of this, but I would say if someone is one of the top-5 daily posters and has said nothing of value, that is spamming the forums. (D.D.D. Is a perfect example) If someone has started multiple useless threads in sub-forums designed to be useful such as HV-Beta forum (Thanos008 comes to mind), then they are spamming the forums. If someone's posts are so obviously an attempt to wrack up posts so as to increase their daily EXP gain, that is spamming (We can argue whether people deserve K- for simply posting in Spamhaus later. I meant that in other sections of the forum)

2) A single offensive, or annoying post- As opposed to spamming which might not include any single post that someone might find objectionable but that no one also considers helpful or worthwhile. This can basically be summed up as anything jackass-ish or retarded. Note: Rob and Rad get a free pass in regards to this, at least from this thread. K- them on your own if you want. Why? I feel like it, I find them amusing, and I'm the one who started this thread so I get to make the rules.

3) Complaining about having been K-'ed- Take your Negative Karma like a man. You probably deserved it. If you did not, then you preemptively deserved it for being willing to complain about it afterward. This involves somewhat of a judgment call as to what constitutes complaining. Posting a K- comment in the Karma comment thread without any over the top complaint does not count. Starting a thread in general chat about being K-'ed does. Note: I wanted to include a link to Negimafan's thread, but is seems to have disappeared... THIS INCLUDES K-'ING SOMEONE IN RETALIATION FOR BEING K-'ED. That someone thinks you are a jackass is not a valid reason to think the other person is a jackass.

4) Pestering a user to know why they K-'ed you- I'm thinking of Coco here. I k-'ed her and she messaged me a dozen times wanting to know the reason. I did have some fun messing with her, but I was in a good mood that day. On another day I might have been annoyed. As someone has the choice to post here, that person can decide to not post if they are in fact amused by said messages.

5) Giving K+ to a user to “make up for” the K- of another user- This falls under the “Don't encourage jackasses to be jackasses” rule.

6) Taking this site, these forums, or the H-Verse too seriously- Doing so makes the site less enjoyable for other people.

7) Duping, Uploading, and Expunging Related Infractions- I swear to God, people better not use this thread to settle vendettas in regards to dupes and expunges. That means don't post prominent members for this reason. What I mean, is if someone uploads a number of dupes, lots of galleries of questionable value, or wrongfully expunges a gallery, then they deserve K-. Now, most dupers don't use the forums, so maybe this will not effect them, but I thought it best to include it for completeness sake.

8) Abusing this thread- This includes faking a reason to K- another, using this thread as a means to wage vendettas, or anything else that is generally sketchy that I have not thought of.

I'm going to add an example of how K- requests should be presented but I have not written that up yet...

Karmas! (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)

Lots of purty words what are well thought out with fancy bold lettering and what not.

I am one who write offensive spammy spam posts everywhere and you seem to still give me +K. Am I to understand that there is exceptions to these rules, you have plans to neg me if I so happen to break said rules, or are you basically blowing smoke up all of our asses on this one... and if so, can I be the first to have my ass blown into?
