  1. Limiting the quota and then telling us that we up vote jokes too much, to continue my smile simile, feels to me like telling me that I'm smiling at the wrong things. it seems like you're saying that I can't be trusted to decide for myself what makes me smile.
  2. Can we call this thread Nearer the Flame? Nearer the Flame: Rosharan horror story chronicling the slow descent of a man into madness after watching his upvotes die.
  3. Okay, we know what Kobold's opinion of upvotes is. Mine is a very similar idea. Could those of you who believe that they are inflated, explain what your opinion is. If I'm going to try to make my point here, I'd like to know exactly what I'm arguing against. And I have explained why I think we should see upvotes that way. I'm not in the top fifty, probably barely in the top two hundred, and I would like to make it clear that the most uprooted shaders are not the only ones with his view. Once again, sorry if any of this reads as rude.
  4. I would like to disagree with this idea, as to me how many upvotes a post deserves isn't a value that I can quantify. An up vote to me means that I find your post funny, or worth something on the bad day thread, or contributing an interesting idea, be it theory or not. I think that an upvote is how I smile at what someone says on the Shard and if I don't give myself a quota of smiles per day, and don't decide that a joke is only worth so many smiles and got too many in real life, I see no reason to do it on this website. I don't frown at a joke because I think too many people are smiling. I'm really sorry if this is rude. I tend to occasionally be a bit more blunt than is polite.
  5. I might finally meet that most dreaded of epics, QUOTA!*ominous music*
  6. The Ember Island Players is an... interesting episode.*blubbers relentlessly about hope*
  7. As soon as I get upvotes back, I'm coming through here and upvoting every post. We'll call that the light at the end of the tunnel.
  8. Yep. I was about to try to get to sleep, and suddenly, upvotes vanished.*joins Mistrunner and Allomancy, sobbing*
  9. If it is a psychological experiment, then I must, for the sake of science, disclose that I'm becoming twitchy.
  10. Can some just post a little picture of a green arrow so I can feel like I'm upvoting people?
  11. How does Banjo feel about taxes?
  12. Bulletin I'm not sure if any of my fellow high schoolers took the PSAT, though I seem to recall Lark saying something, but if you did and you want to know your score, it should be on CollegeBoard. You may now return to your regularly scheduled randomness.
  13. Let's test this... Someone threw NaCl at me. That's assault.
  14. Sorry. I know that feeling. I almost forgot! *hugs*
  15. Sorry, I must have missed that post. Well, Happy belated Birthday, anyways. I hope it was good.
  16. Happy Birthday to Lark. And congratulations to Morzathoth and Cognizantastic for making it to top fifty rep.
  17. ​thog like ice cream. and puppies
