You shut your face, you lying reposter!

He was being sarcastic

I just wish the weightloss/cancer/rescuedog posts would fuck off. Where SHOULD they post those?

CryAboutIt69
The imgur "community" is one of the most obnoxious circlejerks on the internet.
RichardHanna
This is a repost!

They also care too much if their shitty fandom is on top or not. Fuck Harry Potter. (this will be downvoted most likely)

toasteheh
The "community" also cares way to much about what they deem to be offensive and want removed for all to see.
Magicmat
Kinda true. I don't care about reposts thats for sure, as I am not on here 24/7 so a lot of them I have not seen.

My username checks out

Cleverly done, @OP -- cleverly done: you *know* all we lurkers ever do is upvote or downvote -- and you made us feel *damn* good with this!

@op, I'd like to suggest the best people here are the one's who don't fucking complain...

Been a lurker for 6 years now. Hell of a fun.

Happy lurkers unite

reposts aren't bad if you wait a couple days or a week. there are times when they are made minutes apart
CryAboutIt69
Try months.
howneatisthaat
What it really comes down to

I'm going to repost this just to piss everyone off

ParanoidWithGoodCause
there is no "community" just assholes being assholes to other assholes. welcome to the internet and/or humanity
artyscash
Well said
Xsiah
No, there's a bit of groupthink going on. It's subtle, but the ratings we see on comments or posts affect our behaviour to the point where
Xsiah
you can tell a difference between what reaction you'll get here vs some other site
imgurdmf
if people walked around in public for a week acting like they do on imgur most if not off all them would get an ass kicking
TheTimeless
Me, an intellectual, replying to you in public: Someone else already kicked my ass, you reposter! I'm gonna call my friend @sarah on you!
abbyrose91
Like they do on the internet****
morphis
Replace the word IMGUR with THE INTERNET
DarkKrieg
I disagree, some places on the internet are fine, namely those with a fairly small number of people/userbase.
cowbellrx
That is the internet. Anonymity breeds that mindset very well
DeadPoetsSobriety
Bring it on, bitch. I have 29k imaginary points!
CastleIsGreat
29001. *winkyface*

BossCar9
You can replace Imgur with social media in general and this statement would still be very accurate.
TheAnswerWasAlwaysMoreLube
Step 3 or 4. be larger than most men.
GiantDad420
I am an anxious wreck here and irl and I have avoided an ass kicking so far.

Sounds like somebody's got a case of the Mondays!

Yeah, well you're a 2/7 which is the lowest possible brendan scale score! >:p
Ochetellusglaber
It would be interesting to see people attempting to use a gif offline, wouldn't it? How would that work?
trigonman3
Once I screencapped the few relevant frames of a gif, arranged and printed them out, and stuck the printout on my cabinet at work.
atworldsend
Which GIF?

I think youre confusing us with reddit or 9gag. Tumblweeds and Imgurians might accidently find happiness or love or something.
OsirisOsirisOsiris
Yeah, no. You tell yourself you are special/different/better than those, but you are identical.
DontLookAtMePenis
I'd agree besides the part about caring if something's true, how can you enjoy something if it's obvious bs, if everyone claps it's boring
Astrolobos
as an artist I get pretty pissed off if people don't give proper credit when whoring for points
Thismanneedsaname
If its not copyrighted or water marked, its fair game in the wild woolly internet.
BombBloke
Near everything's fucking copyrighted. People treat it all as "fair game" anyway, site-terms be damned.
BombBloke
And if an actual copyright notice is included *in the image*? Odds are some tool will crop it out.
birdlanding
Same. I post my stuff and a karma whore just picks the one with the most points to post on their page, and they don't even credit.
BombBloke
Using the top-rated comment as a title for their repost seems to be another common form of scum-baggery.
icantthinkofausernamesoyeah
majorminers
I consider myself community. Lurker for weeks.Just made first post. Couldn't care a shit about "the rules" i.e. selfies,repost,overkill etc.
PhantomGeek
With a large number of them resorting to personal attacks when someone posts a comment contrary to theirs. Then later on say...
PhantomGeek
"Oops, my bad. Was having a bad day" ...like that excuses them for wishing me dead or calling me a cunt.
awes132
and they are all slaves to the almighty upvote

The only thing that slightly bothers me is unnecessary double dipping

"the capitalist society isnt perfect, now give me money for how woke i am"

I am literally spouting woke shit for attention and money/upvotes

LITERALLY spouting?

The voting system on here is dumb. It discourages discourse and creates an echo chamber
Relykwastaken
The voting system on here is dumb... dumb... dumb... It discourages discourse and creates an echo chamber... chamber... chamber....
pollypocketfullofposies
"They" like you yourself didn't just leave a comment and squee a little when you got votes.
awes132
Refer to first comment thread
ThePartyLeader
Yeah screw the truth
ProBologna
Found the "community."
Uuudd
Really, I would hope everyone would step up to correct a post if it wasnt true... otherwise Id blame OP beyond being gay dont post flames.
iMuteMorons
We do step up, that's what OP is complaining about. Apparently he'd rather propagate bullshit
DredeKnig
Almost all the comments I see going "yeah that didn't happen" are on posts about funny tales or stories that obviously aren't real.
DonaldTrumpsFlaccidHairpiece
Eh, I comment tons, and don't care about reposts, but I will call bs on blatently false posts as I hate people who spread ignorance.
CrazyCatLad
Yeah, downvoted the post because caring if something is true is a good thing.
THEREAINTNOWEEPININTHISHOME
Especially if it's to a political end.
HereKillYaSelf
I think this is more along the lines of people telling stories that might not have actually happend
iMuteMorons
Go on... Explain the difference...
HereKillYaSelf
Spreading ignorance isn't telling a story it's not information that could cause any harm
iMuteMorons
Sure, most of the time it's a harmless lie, but not always and it's still a lie. Only interesting bc people think it might have happened
HereKillYaSelf
How could it not be harmless?
DredeKnig
A funny greentext or tumblr post vs a post making claims about facts.
CorneliusCornwall
"Vaccines turns frogs gay" vs "once upon a time in Mexico..."
iMuteMorons
"Once upon a time in Mexico, I saw these frogs get super gay after they were vaccinated"

Taking an imgur watermark off of a picture and then posting on imgur. Truly, the most heinous of sins.

Dammit, I was going to make that joke. +1
