bluefront? barking sphincter? bouje?
October 16th, 2009 at 11:55 AM ^
Bouje and R_Mahorne had some epic negbangings.
Section_1 or whatever his name is took a gigantic plunge.
I think that BlueFront guy (Apologies if this is wrong) the guy who started the post about his brother in laws cousins gardener heard RichRod swear got banged hard too.
October 16th, 2009 at 12:02 PM ^
Bouje and R_Mahorne had some epic ... bangings. Section_1 ... took a gigantic plunge. I think that BlueFront guy ... got banged hard too.
October 16th, 2009 at 5:52 PM ^
When I first discovered Mgo, Blue Front had just posted his " Baby's momma's uncle herd Rich is a guy who cusses" artical. This guy recieved a royal and deserving ass reaming. The responses from the bloggers to his B.S were hysterical and justifiable, but most importantly correct. The veiws and opinions on this blog definently make it one of a kind.
October 16th, 2009 at 12:04 PM ^
What the hell happened to R Mahorn? Dude is sitting at like -500! What's the banhammer threshold, then?
October 16th, 2009 at 12:14 PM ^
some people attract "negbang stalkers" so that is probably a factor too
October 16th, 2009 at 12:21 PM ^
Is a post that deserves a ton of +1!
October 16th, 2009 at 12:54 PM ^
That may be true, but that seldomly happens. Often the people who lose 2352335 points deserve it because of sheer idiocy.
October 16th, 2009 at 12:24 PM ^
Mahorn isn't really all that offensive or insulting to other posters, I think that saves him. I think he's just stupid and gets negged every time he posts something dumb. People hate his avatar too.
October 16th, 2009 at 12:19 PM ^
It's a demise? Losing points could mean little more than a whole lot of people disagree with you--such as my simple suggestion that Rodriguez made a mistake when he inserted Robinson on the final drive of the Iowa game.
I've said it before and I'll say it again: the plus or negative thing is no way to gauge a poster, and whtever intent was there to use it has degenerated to little more than a popularity contest that doesn't matter one bit.
I am now at a status where I cannot initiate content, which is no big deal because I arely do, and cannot "rate" fellow posters, which again isn't important because I primarily rated guys on wit, comic value, and writing style. I rarely neg banged other posters unless they were redundant, or could think of nothing to say besides "XXX is a douchebag"
But alas, the OP once again ignores the rule that points shouldn't be discussed. You should post for your OWN good and not to secure the warm fuzzies from an audience that is both irrational and schizophrenic at times.
October 16th, 2009 at 12:25 PM ^
where's he been lately? Was he upset at being called a DBag?
October 16th, 2009 at 1:49 PM ^
he's off saving the world on picnic benches transformed into surfboards and bedsheets turned into bungee cords. of course he claims it's voluntary but the freep is investigating.
October 16th, 2009 at 1:01 PM ^
I've not been a member all that long but it appeared like a demise to me. Your posts resembled what you see when reading comments on ESPN, just a random D-bag trying to be as outrageous as possible. It's been great to read well thought out responses by very inteligent people. Acting like it's all a big popularity contest after the fact doesn't take into account the ridiculous comments that had no bearing on the actual posts... I think you may be the schizophrenic.
October 16th, 2009 at 1:35 PM ^
I disagree on that one. The point system does often merely reward those who agree with the majority. Though it *should* be an indicator of the quality of the post, it instead sometimes solely reflects partisan opinions and peoples’ wooden (and at times frenzied) beliefs. For example, in the thread that (I think) killed King of Belch’s points (Observations on the Iowa Game) his posts were clearly the best of the bunch, regardless of whether or not you agree with his outlook.
October 16th, 2009 at 1:41 PM ^
For the people who don't know, King of Belch was Barking Sphincter (and Duke of Discharge). I find a lot of people missed that fact. He's generally against most of the mainstream ideas. Nothing wrong with that. It's just his method of expressing his views that get him most of the negatives.
October 16th, 2009 at 2:19 PM ^
I was not the "Duke of Discharge"--I was never banned as the KOB, dufus! Why would I need a second ID to post under at the same time KOB is perfectly postable? Doesn't make sense.
But to your other point--yes, I have an abrasive tone--but it is abrasive because I go against the grain much of the time. If I didn't, hell, I'd be in the Michigan E-Man Hall of Fame!
October 16th, 2009 at 2:26 PM ^
You might be suffering from ITD. You should get that diagnosed by a specialist.
October 16th, 2009 at 2:16 PM ^
I was referring more to the fact that for a few hour period it didn't matter which post you clicked on there was a comment from King of Belch that was completely random. I know it was probably his way of proving a point, but to come back and act like the only reason you were neg'd was for offering different opinions is not completely accurate.
October 16th, 2009 at 1:52 PM ^
The fact that bouje is in the positive points does point to an inherent flaw in the system.
October 16th, 2009 at 12:58 PM ^
Does anyone remember the creepy pedophile lawyer. I think he got in an argument with someone from WLA (Dex??) and he threatened to sue for slander or something along those lines. I bet he would have been negbanged into oblivion.
October 16th, 2009 at 3:48 PM ^
I believe you're thinking of this guy for this thread.
It was classic.
October 16th, 2009 at 4:07 PM ^
Thanks for the link. This guy was classic.
October 16th, 2009 at 5:54 PM ^
Oh man is he entertaining:
"I don't know what linebacker corps you're looking at, but Obi Ezeh, Jonas Mouton, Austin Panter, and Brandon Herron are fantastic LBs."
He must really be loving their play this year.
October 16th, 2009 at 12:47 PM ^
Personally - neg away if you'd like
October 16th, 2009 at 1:43 PM ^
many points do you have to have to rate people?
October 16th, 2009 at 3:25 PM ^
I have actually lost over 1000 in the past week.
October 16th, 2009 at 4:59 PM ^
As did I.
October 16th, 2009 at 3:38 PM ^
I believe the record still belongs to diclemeg (since banned), who lost more than 1000 over about 24 hours for this thread.
October 16th, 2009 at 4:53 PM ^
You would think you could expect better from a guy named diclemeg
October 16th, 2009 at 10:41 PM ^
White Pony Rocks did have that great thread where he complained about (sic) "douchey Mgoblog users" that were, in his opinion, probably students. He based his observations off of people ordering sandwiches from Potbellies.
He's only at -20, but I love that thread.
