    Thanks and groan buttons disappearing

    Is it just mine that this is happening on? Sometimes the groan button will be present and the thanks button gone, and other times both of them are gone. Is there a limit to how many thanks and groans you can give in a day's time? What is going on here?

    I believe it's 7 groans and 8 thanks, but Sarge may have lowered that....

    How many of those have you done today ??

    I think they should bloody well disappear forever. Even gayer than the 5 star system. Why do we need to have this "popularity" shite?

    I wanted to fuck with it, but they told me to fuck off.

    Which is totally acceptable, but we should've fucked with it, anyway.

    Heeeey, Shitvicky is heavy on this thread, thanking & groaning like a motherfucker.

    Maybe he still has some hope in becoming popular through the usage of this feature?

    Yo, Shitvicky... Fuck off, you fucking pedophile. Piece of shit... may you get constantly urinated on, when you pass away.

    Cheers! :bottle:

    I noticed that sometimes* the thanks button will indeed come back. I will thank 2 times and it will be gone again. I haven't noticed a pattern as to why this occurs.


    * recently and a few times in the past. There appears to be no pattern to the time frame of when or how long the anomaly will last.

    To put it simply, we need to worry a lot less about how to communicate our actions and much more about what our actions communicate.

    The real problem with the groan limit is people like Suckvicki and GAyR post more than 8 times a day... that's not really enough to go around for all that Ghey....

    Hey, you know I love you man, but fuck you!

    This is a fucking forum on the internets - you're supposed to post.

    It's like going to a whore house - whoops, 'scuse me - a place where you can find ladies of easy virtue, and buy them drinks instead of making the love, 'cause buying drinks is easier.

    Cheers! :bottle:

    What the fuck? Stop spamming the Army, demented bitch. That really pisses me off.

    Haven't you noticed the sentence in Hidethemsheep's post "from the not-so-popular members..." followed by the Army's most loathed names?

    It may have slipped you, but your name was in there. What, you though you were getting a compliment?

    Noone here has anything nice to say to or about you.

    You're a psycho.

    Fuck off.

    Who's that babe? She's kinda hot. If it's you, well, it's a waste of a perfectly good face.

    No way anyone would touch you, even with a 200ft pole.

    Though you'd probably wish it.

    Psycho bitch.

    Hey look... psycho bitch got a psycho boyfriend.

    Gayr is "stepping in" to her "defence" by groaning at us the Shitvicky way.

    Hey Gayr... Standin is a FEMALE. Of what species, it is yet to be determined, but a FEMALE nonetheless.

    Not your type.

    Cheers! :bottle:

    Gayr? From what I've gathered, he's someone who's always trying to make himself look smart by googling things like a motherfucker.

    It is a double failure because:

    1) It takes a shitload of time to go through all the stuff Google returns, and select the most appropriate to copy/paste in a particular instance, which reveals to everybody that Gayr is unemployed/a homeless bum who posts from the library.

    2) It's never quite right, so he only shows how really stupid he is.

    But I'm sure others will fill you in better.

    Dunno why he groaned at you, though. Must've been with the excitement. Groan, groan, oops... oh well, groan....

    Either that, or because you're a girl. He doesn't like 'em, you see.

    Cheers! :bottle:

    I've had my fill of Gar and his crap... especially over in the This Is Gear Street forum and his derailing about every thread there.

    I've pretty much given up on reading and posting in that forum...
