Re:Free?

On: MIT Press Book On Open Source Now Free

Not really, I was just being an ass.

There should be a +1: honest mod. Who knows, we might need it again sometime.

On: The Economist Magazine Looks Outside For Insight

Except "most popular" does not imply "best", and "best" does not imply "most popular".

So it's nothing like Slashdot, then.

In Soviet Russia, crack is on mods!!

Re:I'm an idiot!

On: Regrowing Lost Body Parts Getting Closer All the Time

just replace it with "I want to give this person karma points" and "I want to hurt this person's karma score".

Isn't that what overrated and underrated are for? If they meant what the names imply, something couldn't be under|overrated until it's been rated.

Re:The police are not there to protect the citizen

On: Couple Who Catch Cop Speeding Could Face Charges

Anyone who is given coercive power over another individual turns brutish in a remarkably short period of time.

If you need convincing of that, just take a look at the moderation system here.

Re:Trolling for points rating: 4

On: P2P Virtual Currency Exchange Launches

You missed off an ID in the low 5 digit range.

Re:Why

On: Bird Flu Pandemic Could Choke the Net

Congratulations on being the second biggest idiot on this site. The gold medal goes to the twat who modded your ill-informed post as insightful.

What do you thing "overrated" means in practice?

Re:The CMS

On: Who Killed the Webmaster?

Parent is not a troll, it's insightful, and whoever modded it down is a retard.

Re:*Tossing the BS Flag*

On: Global Warming May Have Killed the Dinosaurs

Given the recovery capacity of the planet, what makes you think your puny a$$ vespa or even my brontosaur vehicle can spew enough crap to cause climatic change?

That's the reason I don't buy all that crap about erosion. As if a little bit of water could ever do anything to a rock. Insane!

Well it sure as heck ain't funny!

Gamesmaster speaking

On: iPhone Not Running OS X

You cast accusation of karma whoring.

His 5 digit ID of impunity gives a 72% chance of a save. He rolls 45: you fail it!!!

Re:2.0 isn't even out of beta yet!

On: Can the Web Survive v3.0

All of you people who go on (and on, and on, and on, and on) about the web not having official versioning, hence there can't be a web n.anything are getting really fucking tedious. 327 in this thread so far.

Everyone with a clue knew it was bullshit - like, two years ago - and they're having a laugh about it.

Get over yourselves, morons.

Someone please mod these organisms to oblivion. Which version of oblivion, you ask? Any, really, just so long as we don't have to put up with the trainspotting autistic rainmongs.

FFS, don't mod people up just because they have 4 digit IDs.

Re:I saw something like this before...

On: Get Buff While Geeking Out

see who would loose the most weight. [...] and if he stopped peddling

I don't understand. Weight isn't tight to start with, and I don't see how selling things could make it less so.

Re:Hmm

On: Co-Founder Forks Wikipedia

A piss poor automated translation (I speak well enough German the word-order to recognise) gets modded up?

Re:Sony

On: Apple Recalls 1.1 Million Laptop Batteries

+4 informative? WTF?

Now if he'd mentioned welcoming overlords, or said something about rooting Sony in Soviet Russia I could understand it.

More like -1 bloody obvious.

"Oil is traded on free commodities markets and is a near perfect supply and demand model."

Mod parent +1 funny.

Re:Forget to log on

WTF? This clown either directly plagiarised the preceding one or forgot to log on and repeated the post like a moron and he's getting modded up?
