the philosophy of serial groaners

I just read the link and I'm surprised he Groaned that.

It might be a force of habit for him. I actually thought I was sort of agreeing with him, because it was a rare point worth discussing from him. He doesn't seem to want to discuss it like he said. He just wants to tout climate change as a hoax, and find people to agree with him. I was a little tiffed I even put the effort in. Next time I'll know better.

I had the same impression. I thought you two were on your way to a good conversation and then...Groan.

Well, I can't speak for him and Lord knows I've done my fair share of fucking with him but yeah...maybe he thought the fix was in. I thought you made a really good point about the trees.
 
Methinks you doth complain too much.

There's a reason behind the attitude that makes it understandable, but I'm going to save you from the drama. Stay away from the Top, and Mason (or whatever his name is now) drama for your own sanity.

I went insane a long time ago.

Painkillers are a bitch. For your own sanity stay away from them.
 
For real. I've had the tard on ignore since forever, which he knows, yet he still feels pathologically compelled to follow me around and park groans on my posts. Attention whoring at its 2nd finest.... his buttbuddy Toxic is #1.

CRYING FOWL!!!
 
what do they believe they are gaining by spending all their time here groaning mass posts?



what real effect do they believe they are creating?




exactly what punishment do they believe they are imparting on the posters they target?


its part of the reason I decided never to groan (or neg rep on some sites)



It just seems so completely meaningless
Sorry Desh...I couldn’t help myself. ;)
 
I will let the psychologists sort it out as to whether it stems from resentment, petty grievance, OCD, or other psychological afflictions.

I believe it should be considered a cry for help.
i don’t know about that. I can remember taking great satisfaction from getting groaned by Topspin. LOL

I have had bouts with kidney stones, and for the most part I don't like using them. A heating pad works better. I only took them if I had something significantly important to do.
 
Yeah, I don't get the groaning thing.

I guess there have been a couple of times I had the urge to groan a post, but then I always thought: Sheesh. It's so negative. What's the point? And do I really want to spoil a perfect record for that post? So I never did it.

I don't groan people - I just put 'em on Ignore. I don't do that lightly, but if I don't see a possible future of civil exchange with a poster they need to go on Ignore. The fact that I have this extra rule that Ignore is permanent causes me to make absolutely certain every time I have to do that.

I do get groaned. But it occurs to me that if I am saying controversial enough stuff, that is to be expected.

And I also see that a lot of the groans I get? They come from people I have placed on Ignore - as if that is all they are reduced to.

So I don't worry about how many groans I get. They can almost be treated as a badge of honor.
 
So, you care a lot more about Groans than you let on?

I never use that option

I do use the thanks part all the time

well I was taking a moment to tell the groaners how silly I think they are

why does it frost your balls?

I'm not the one who was complaining about it.

I removed those joke Groans by the way :)
