"On" Posting Profusion

why its annoying

By Tova7 Posted May 2, 2008 20:14:18

One of the best features at JU is being able to read about other people's lives. What they think, work for, love for, ARE for.

I also understand multiple posting is not frowned upon by the admins.

But man oh man, I HATE it when done with blatant, arrogant disregard for other users. Almost as if TRYING to annoy, living to do it actually.

It's one thing to write several articles about different things in one day...but to take what is essentially a "what I believe" article and make it a dozen ...its ridiculous.

It reminds me think of toe nails.

Broken toe nails to be exact.

Article 1...On breaking a toe nail.

Article 2....On filing it

Article 3...On removing old polish

Article 4...On applying new polish

Article 5...On blowing it dry

Article 6....On watching the lights reflect off the nice red color

Article7....Why polish and Polish are spelled the same way.

Seriously.

I am having Jenn1 flashbacks.

haha, when we were in Amarillo in Feb, I saw a place that was Polish *something*. I got all excited thinking I might get to try Polish food. Nope. It was polish.

And I agree, the "On xyz" articles get annoying. Particularly because they are generally not well thought-out or in depth. Just a short paragraph relating and unelaborated-on opinion.

It's fun to tear them apart though. (Wishing for a horned smiley.)

I don't like when people get overly "delete" happy.

Though right now I can't edit...and JU is acting wonky for me.

Oh well, typos R us I guess.

That's hilarious...there should be some sort of thinga-majiggy to tell them apart...besides the capital P.

If you can do it without being deleted.

He's not even good at defense...arrogance and ignorance aren't consenting bed partners.

He's raping arrogance!

Maybe I should change the title to that.....hmmmmm.

I was real close to writing something like this after I saw like 5 of those in a row....all of them could be combined to one article.

And the reasoning behind the beliefs and opinions leaves a lot to be desired.

Well, there is that.

He should write an article "on" being an ass.

I hate when I miss good articles because some clown can't consolidate 5 boring articles into one long boring article. He's like a gnat though. You swat him and he keeps coming back.

I'm hoping ignoring him will do the trick. Once he started liberally deleting things I swore him off.

Ah sorry Zoo...ya shoulda done it...I'm tired and not really up the level of satire this situation deserves...but it annoyed me enough to not let it go by without a swat.

I agree. It pisses me off, but maybe I'm just cranky today. But I am at the point and have been for weeks now, that I refuse to click on anything that has his nick in the alt-tag.

Go away, please....go away.

but maybe I'm just cranky today

Nah...sound fed up to me. It's almost like something my twelve year old would do to get attention...except here I can say stop it son! haha

Yep, I keep telling myself that I won't click on his....his....posts( they don't really qualify...), let alone respond, but it's like a friggin car crash, you have to stop and look. And especially with Zoo, SanCho, S/n and whoever else picking apart his things, it is really like a car crash.

*smacks a gnat*

he does get lots of comment though...

I think that's because it is so easy to be smart when you argue with him. hahahahaha And who doesn't like to look like a genius now and then? Not to mention it gives the opportunity to try out new levels of sarcasm.

Oh well.

More power to him.

His prescence as well as one other has really brought JU down.

He's not that bad - JU has always had its mind in the gutter. The only reason JU looked at the stars was because it thought faked innocence would draw attention from the frantic mudslinging going on below the shoulders, but while JU as a whole may maintain a pretence of gentility I think we all know we're gutter-dwellers and proud of it.

Erathoniel would fit in fine here if he would only explain his views rather than just stating them.

and maybe he can do it in one article every 5 hours instead of every 5 minutes. Just a suggestion. I don't click on his things at all because of his spam, so even if he has something worthwhile to read, I won't see it now.

I try to put in reviews on different subjects, not just one thing. If you don't give about my articles, I don't care. I'm writing for those who do.

Who?..........just kidding.

Most of those I see are there to give negative comments and criticize. Seems like you love the attention, negative attention that is.

Thank you Tova!

Hey JU Admins! Where's the ignore feature???

I don't even bother with the xyz posts. I made one comment yesterday that was rather snipey...but hey, maybe he'll ban me from commenting or better yet, delete me. Haha!

Crowing about 100 articles of nothing is no real accomplishment. I keep hoping people will leave the garbage well enough alone so other dumping grounds will be found.

Not to mention it gives the opportunity to try out new levels of sarcasm.Oh well.More power to him.

Ha ha! That is CLASSIC!

Dude, the point you seem to be missing is that your stuff IS on one subject. And you are annoying people with your minutia and making it difficult for other people to be read. Basially the concept that people are trying to express to learn how to share the space with others.

If people think your articles are pretty much similar then maybe you need to review at your articles. Even you are the type of guy to divide your carmine colored buttons from your scarlet buttons in your collection, most other people are going to see a bunch of red buttons.

I can't imagine how I missed your article Tova (sarcasm). I just wrote one myself on the same thing. I'm going back to it right now to add a comment linking your article just so this "idea" gets further dissemination.

Karma coming to you for this article.

After talking about this briefly with my wife (asaxygirl for those who didn't know) I have decided to found the Coalition for the Suppression of Disrespectful Bloggers. To join this coalition you must simply realize one thing:

It is our replies that encourage negative behavior, and even though it IS fun to take blind shots and still hit the target in the bullseye because the bullseye is about as big as the universe itself, it is having the side affect of hampering the enjoyment of our own collective space.

So take the oath with me.

I, state your JU name, will boycott any blogger who states that he/she doesn't care about his/her fellow bloggers fair use of the site. No matter how enticing it is to pull the metaphorical wings off of a fly-like argument, I will resist for the betterment of JU as a blog site and for the enjoyment of my fellow JUs whether I agree or disagree with those JUs on any other level.

RAmen.

Aaaaaugh! I clicked!

Population: Tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiirrrrrreeeeeee!

Yeah, I signed it on Ock's site, too, but I feel the need to let my opinion be known.

I'm tired of the articles that I actually spend time and thought on buried under a pile of stinky shit.

Up the irrrons, people. I'm ready to commit some acts of pirrracy.

I, the great and mighty Little-Whip will boycott any blogger who states that he/she doesn't care about his/her fellow bloggers fair use of the site.

Amen.

hahaha.

Well I actually think JU is at the top of what is available in this genre on the net. I wouldn't call it the gutter, more like the penthouse.
