    Suggestion to users:

    Consider perhaps holding off from -1'ing people's whose opinions, political or otherwise, you might otherwise disagree with when they post submissions to threads like "Show some recent work".

    it saddens me seeing some patently-interesting stuff get -3'd just because it's Georges or whoever posting.

    Cunts!

    • of course, if you think the work's shit, -1 it down to hell.detritus
    • 10 bux says you just made it worse :)PonyBoy
    • I agree, it's bullshitset
    • well I agree and I don't use that behavior myself. and when it comes to georges, he has a great work. fact.oey
    • with all due respect, what are you referring to? maybe i missed something, but I don't see any posts with negative counts in the recent work threadmonospaced
    • it happens a lot, and Georges' last post went down to -3 before i wrote that. Annoyingly it went back to zero after, hahadetritus
    • I went back 120 posts at least, and the only instance of a negative count is for since1979 and omg ... Georges is consistently highly upvoted in factmonospaced
    • omg didn't even post work at all, and since1979 I don't think has a strong opinion like you're referring tomonospaced
    • He did say threads 'like' the SSRW thread, mono. That poison spills out of the politics thread and right into all the other threads in the form of DVs daily.PonyBoy
    • Well, yeah, because every time I see georges' or whoever stuff downvoted i use my two accounts to upvote it!detritus
    • it is my perception that this happens, as too set's apparently. if it is not yours, then no worries — with all due respect, move along :)detritus
    • It's common to see Georges DVed outside of the politics thread...heavily DVed at that.PonyBoy
    • my 2 cents. being a condescending prick then posting work, insights, or otherwise expecting positive results is a bit silly.
      cunts.
      kona
    • He can be a condescending prick, yes —
      i'll absolutely not disagree. But i don't see how that rationalises arbitrary negative votes. That's not the higher path.

    • I see.monospaced
    • I never ever downvote recent work thread - never have. It's rude.fadein11
    • +1 fadein — it is indeed 'rude'.detritus
    • ^ same fadein. I don't give a crap who posts, it's the most inspiring thread here by far.kona
    • but crying over downvotes is also a little bit immature imhofadein11
    • Doesn't -1'ing help keep stuff off the front page? if good work goes uncommented and is mindlessly -1'd, then it disappears.detritus
    • i generally upvote all work shown just to encourage people to postscarabin
    • ganging up on people online because you simply disagree w/their opinion is also a little bit immature imhoPonyBoy
    • same with mugsscarabin
    • who da fuck downvotes mugs? that's just rude as hell and wrong.kona
    • Jesus pony. Omg is a troll with multiple accounts. Give me a break. And yes i will attack his views. Like he attacks minefadein11
    • oh pony. omg literally gangs up on people using his multiple accounts. does that it make it right he gets ganged up on? absolutely. f him.kona
    • crazy times we are living in - expect some strong opinions. One things for sure the right are whiney little bitches when things are going bad for themfadein11
    • upvoted for QBN karmafadein11
    • I haven't mentioned OMG once here, clowns... only Georges. Now get back to honking your noses and clicking that downvote button.PonyBoy
    • @kona my mug was downvoted and ridiculed. I suppose it's because people disagree with my radical POV and opinions? maybe i post whine about downvotes too much?monospaced
    • @PonyBoy, are you surprised people are assuming you're talking about omg, really?monospaced
    • Yes—given I didn't say a word about omg. What's funny is how hung up you guys are over one user—Get your torches and pitchforks—ONE user has upset the masses!PonyBoy
    • relax ... you didn't have to say omg, people assumed that because he's the most downvoted person here with a POV and opinions most everyone hatesmonospaced
    • I said Georges, mono... point-blank specifically said 'Georges'. You guys brought up and once again are attacking omg... not me.PonyBoy
    • And if you assume everyone is on your omg hate-bandwagon... you are sadly mistaken. I hate them about as much as I hate you, mono. <3PonyBoy
    • You also said "or whoever" after saying Georges. Additionally, I never said anything about omg, and resent being lumped in with your "you guys" stuff :)monospaced
    • And I don't believe for a second that you hate me like people hate omg. <3monospaced
    • Look, if you can say it's beyond the "work" thread because of "like," then it's okay to go beyond "Georges" if he said "or whoever" okay? relax bromonospaced
    • If you look close... you'll see I said I love you both, numbnuts. ;)
