often the same thing, unless we're talking about darqwolff.

Discoverability is a major problem with that setup then. Half of the fun of reddit has always been learning of new places and new subreddits, and if you're only watching what you follow, you can't do that.

Mostly, I'm just amused by the hubriski (if that's not a word, I'm making it one) of thinking that you've solved Eternal September. If you don't know me from reddit, I was a mod of subredditdrama for a long time. I love to watch chaos, and it always comes. It comes fastest to the places arrogant enough to think they're immune to it.

Even though you've already gone to the trouble of ignoring me, most likely, it does amuse me that you're thin-skinned enough that you can't take critique with a bit of snark.

The ignore function is a good idea, but it suffers from an inherent flaw: volume. If and when this site takes off, the "overrun of low-quality users" will exceed your capacity to ignore them all. The signal will be lost in the noise, and the system will fall. I've been around for a long time, and that's how it always goes. You'll end up jumping around to hashtags that aren't flooded with shit, just as redditors jump around to subreddits that aren't flooded with shit, and eventually the exodus will begin anew.

    that specific problem is easy to analyze, foresee, and prevent.
If this were the case, Eternal September wouldn't be a thing anymore.

Then who was updot?

You're implying that hubski will never become profit oriented and shitty.

You cannot escape Eternal September. It comes to all sites and ruins all things. Also, you seem especially butthurt, but given that you're the original subreddit drama, I can't really blame you.

Edit: I should probably note that I have no confidence in Hubski's features being able to prevent its downfall. It will fall. All fall.

What, are you trying to get me to link you back?

creepig  ·  4341 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: A fair warning for all Hubsters

before GoA.

You say that like you don't remember the great Digg migration at all.

creepig  ·  4341 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: DAE remember whing about Digg refugees?

    with no "downdot", there's no way for certain content to be quantitatively discouraged, only encouraged.

Which is why I'm not at all upset by people being mad that I started #hubskidrama. They can't downdot me.

Yes.

There's also no way to updot past 8, so karma won't be as big of a thing.

It's like he doesn't think there will ever be drama on hubski.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little shitlord? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in Women's Studies, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on /r/seduction, and I have over 300 confirmed bens. I am trained in vote brigading and I’m the top Archangelle in the entire Fempire. You are nothing to me but just another bigot. I will ben you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over Reddit? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of gynquisitors across the Fempire and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that bens the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking benned, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can ben you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in moderation, but I have access to the entire dildz arsenal of the Fempire and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shitlord. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “shitty” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn SAWCSM. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking benned, shitlord.

creepig  ·  4341 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: So I deleted my reddit account...

Gonna miss you man. Remember that time that we pissed off all of SRD and then had a falling out and got demodded?

We were so brave.
