[SUGGESTION] Downwoot

2015-07-17 08:55:26

We need a downwoot option on this forums. It is a necessity.

EDIT: Changed to suggestion cuz some ppl dont like it.

We don't need one because if you disagree with someone that means you should actually explain why you disagree with it and not just click a button, and there is no help when you just say you disagree without explaining why, as opposed to woots what are supposed to be with agreement, it would be useless to add a post saying you agree with them (regardless if people still do it), and sometimes you can't add on more to what that person says.

Well, not if what the person says is senseless. And we get that a lot.

just because that's how it's intended to be used doesn't mean that's how it'll be used. Woots are used for numerous things now, people even woot the nonsense things because they think it is funny. Downwoots won't be any different, many people could very easily do this to the nonsense posts, but that doesn't mean people won't just do it to simply say they disagree without leaving an answer behind, or however they feel is deserving of a downwoot.

Also, what would it matter if someone downwoots a nonsense post? Some people just do it to do it for no reason, and downwoots probably won't stop them. so they would only be there for show and no other reason.

It's pointless.

I want downwoot so that I can get peace by showing that I don't give a poop to replies like these.

Eg: Imagine YouTube without the dislike button. If you see a stupid vid, if you don't dislike, you'd not feel content. Forums are like that, but the stupidness here is much more and more chaotic than Youtube, so this really needs downwoot.

This is not Youtube. As Nou, downwooting your "stupid" suggestion.

Come on guys... Look at the forum. If you look around you'd find many posts that deserve downwoot.

I- Made a whole new topic for this

Gabriel wrote:

<title = Does anyone use the clear chat command?>
Long time ago that this command exists, but never saw anyone using it. I used twice and it worked well, so for those who forget this command is /clearchat. I do not think this very useful command.

II- Again, made a whole new topic for this crap

rudik3000 wrote:

<title = TPA really has no worlds>

Why? O.O

III- Spam ninja strikes again by creating a new topic

rudik3000 wrote:

<title = FDOOU is really a cheater
Oh noes

IV- The "real" ninja appears with another post

ninjasupeatsninja wrote:

<title=WHATEVER YOU DO DON'T CLICK ME IM A USELESS POST AND I AM MEME>

There are many countless others, but these are the ones I found on a quick scan.

You can already indirectly offend someone by wooting, just have someone post a negative comment and then smash the woot button down, it counts as Downwoot already.

mrjawapa · 2015-07-17 15:28:20

This place has enough negativity.

If you don't give out poops then don't reply to it. If you care enough to press a button then you are giving poops.

People already complain about wooting by itself. Downwooting will just make things worse.

YouTube's dislike button doesn't do anything anymore

Slushie · 2015-07-24 16:12:11

I think we also need a sideways woot, so we can tell someone we don't agree or disagree with their post but still think it's okay.

I thought it worked on videos, but not on comments.

Let's pretend this is added...

Downwoot Wars
IN A FAR FAR LONG UNKNOWN RANDOM GAME FORUM AWAY...
Different55 decided to add Alkazam1448's crazy suggestion to the forums. Once he added it, everybody started downwooting everyone around, most just for fun. Different55 gets a terrible headache of repentance and had to be hospitalized, leaving the forums unsafe. Ipwner gets the most downwoots in the forums and eventually kills himself, because the number of downwoots on his posts always passed his favorite number, 42.
Meanwhile, Alkazam1448, the one who suggested this idea, gets in a fight with Duck and Rgl32, downwooting each other and eventually getting into a terrible flame war, not just between themselves, but with lot of other users. Nobody took downwoots seriously anymore, because they were either joke or hating on someone, but nobody hesitated to downwoot back. Some man eventually finds a way to pass the limit of downwoots per day and it gives even more trouble. At this point, the forums is already a complete chaos.
After Different55 be released from the hospital, the first thing he does is get to the forums and remove the downwoots, but this didn't prevented the hateful topics about downwoots being removed to come, so Different55 had to ban half of the forums. Months passed and nobody could forget this flame war, considered the biggest in the EE forums story.

So better no.
