I will automatically unrec
any post whose first response is a complaint that someone unrecced it.

I'm sorry that pesky free speech thing is a pain in the ass for you, but the admins gave us a tool to use.

If you are pissed off that someone unrecced a post that you like, go ahead and rec it yourself! Get your friends to rec it!

Don't just whine that someone unrecced it.

That is just plain tedious, boring, stupid, and doesn't add anything to the discussion. It is about as clever as rushing to post "First!".


GAAAHHHH!!!

7. No, not at all. But I always
find it funny when someone complains about someone else complaining.

9. Point taken!
Complaining about complaining puts me in a negative feedback loop.

I try to avoid it, but sometimes it is either that or pound my head against the keyboard.

8. Were you not around for the great unrec/rec war of last summer?
Edited on Tue Feb-23-10 02:47 PM by Javaman
"I will not be silenced!!!"

It was simply priceless.

And just FYI, my own post on the subject for that epic battle.

if you start a thread regarding the unrec function, be prepared for it to be massively unrec'd.

If you whine why one of your own threads didn't just make us all squirm with delight, then be prepared to be unrec'd.

If you come across with an attempt to sound reasonable regarding the unrecing of one of your posts, be prepared to be unrec'd.

If you shout, "I'M BEING SILENCED", be prepared to be unrec'd.

If you feign ignorance as to why your post was unrec'd, be prepared to be unrec'd

And lastly...

If you start a thread regarding unrec, be prepared to be unrec'd, flamed mercilessly, and alerted to the mods as being a freep, troll, moron, in need of a pizza, etc.

Just a few of the simple facts of posting about the unrec function.

Cheers!

10. I like the unrec feature
I was around, I just didn't pay any attention.

I get tired of seeing so many Greatest Page posts with the first response on the order of:

"Oh, I see the unrec trolls have been here already"

"Thanks for the drive by unrec."

Maybe I'll start posting "K&UR".

11. The first rule about Unrec Club...
.
Welcome to Unrec Club.
.
The first rule of Unrec Club is: you do not talk about Unrec Club.
.
The second rule of Unrec Club is: you DO NOT talk about Unrec Club!
.
Third rule of Unrec Club: if someone yells "stop!", goes limp, or taps out, the unrec is over.

Fourth rule: only two guys to an unrec.
.
Fifth rule: one unrec at a time, fellas.
.
Sixth rule: the unrecs are bare knuckle. No shirt, no shoes, no weapons.
.
Seventh rule: unrecs will go on as long as they have to.
.
And the eighth and final rule: if this is your first time at Unrec Club, you have to unrec.
.
