Forum - Remove or change Dumb reaction.

Name: Shaw

Suggestion: Remove or change Dumb Reaction so it doesn't effect reputation.

Why should we implement this? People have been complaining and throwing around hate and such with the dumb tag to hurt peoples reputation on the forums and their overall opinions, so having it removed or changed as stated above would seriously tone down the "witch hunting" and "Mass Dumbing" problems we have on the forums.

How will this improve the Forums? Would remove toxic individuals ability to constantly effect other peoples ratings with "Mass Dumbs" and effectively help create and environment in which people can actually give their opinions freely without the constant bullying that happens on the forums currently.

+1 -- I recently had a player report on me because of this. I would love to be able to use the reactions that are given, without having a player report be put on me. ❤️

+1 I agree with this for one becuase on other communities I played on they don’t even have a dumb reaction it’s just a simple agree or disagree, the dumb reaction honestly for most people I would assume they get a basically a you fucking retard vibe and I think it just causes more issues then anything, I would just leave it as Agree, Disagree and the other ones being funny, cause it’s better to have some just react as disagree so it’s like yeah the idea isn’t bad but I disagree instead of just straight up this shit is dumb, and leave it to affect your rep but I think the way people view it will change and also the mentality of people when they get a disagree reaction, there is literally no need for it since it just causes issues so get rid of it and the server that I’m talking about it fine without having it, we have it and it creates a lot of drama which is why the server is so drama filled nowadays 

(I was going to make a suggestion about getting rid of this but seems like you got to it first)

I think this suggestion is dumb, so I rated your post dumb, does this make me a bully?

If you're really having issues with people harassing each other it needs to be brought up to the proper channels; people have been forum ban in the past for "abusing" the rep system.
There's also a difference between posting something in which people disagree with, and rate you dumb, or one person going out of their way to spam dumb your last 30 posts

Removing a system because a few people had their feelings hurt is kinda dumb, it's literally forum reputation, I mean @Sanchez Resident became a Director with like 8 forum warnings so in reality I don't think you should take it too seriously

I mean it does also say "change" so I mean you are really focusing on one side of this suggestion.

I mean I personally dumb posts that are... well, dumb. Posts wherein the content is not thought out or lacks any real foundation. It's a useful little reaction.
Forum Reputation isn't everything. If your feelings are hurt, well, walk it off. It's just a game in the end.

-1 dumbing stupid stuff is a fun thing to do, and btw,  if someone spams dumb in all your posts just report him.

Yeah, it can cause issues. But like Ron said, there are proper channels for handling those issues.

I feel as though the dumb react, if used properly, is a great addition to the forums in such that it allows people to state that the post that they are reacting to is... dumb.

For example, if someone states that something is a fact, such as Obi-Wan Kenobi was Jedi General of 327th, you could rate this post dumb as it's obviously the person being dumb.

People should just use the forums and all parts of it as intended, or should be reported/punished.

Welcome to the internet, also, WELCOME TO LIFE! Just ignore your forum rep as it doesn't mean jack shit. Who cares if someone dumb'ed your post or disagreed with it. So be it, last time I checked our lives didn't revolve around on how others perceive us but how we perceive ourselves to be successful, so everyone needs to grow up and act like civilized beings and move on. -1 on the suggestion.

-1, sorry to sound ironic but thats kinda dumb

Just post things with solid evidence, factual and solid. If you don't, you will get Dumbed.


For instance, the 91st Heavy post, If Dumb was removed, You and The dude who put it up would not be able to dumb my factual paragraph that includes evidence. You are one of the people who dumb people cause they disagree with what you have to say. So I am going to -1 this as the person putting it up also uses the dumb emoji for reasons

I feel like this body boi is here for a reason but I feel it was made to target the retarded such as my self but -1

-1 but i think if you got so much negative rep you shouldn't use it. Because who wants to be called dumb by a dumbass person. Also you gotta have tough skin to be on the internet.

Posted

-1 Not needed ... dont be a dumbass.

 

Posted

Negative reputation is usually given for a good reason and if it isn't, the person dishing it out contstantly usually himself gets some if. What goes around comes around.

-1 some people just have them dumb vibes and I think It'd be nice for them to know. Sometimes when I see a serious post that's dumb but ironically funny. I will give it a laugh rep, not effecting their rep but effecting how seriously they think they're taking.

I'm removing the dumb's from this post. Half are memes, and the other half are unjust. You shouldn't dumb people because you disagree, you should dumb them because they said something genuinely stupid. 

Shaw's rep shouldn't take a slap for his opinion, which he backed up with personal points.

Grow up kids.

Zim, there’s always gonna be disagreements with things and people are always going to use the dumb reaction for people they disagree with, because it’s human nature to think things you don’t agree with are “dumb”. What about the countless other people who got dumb spammed? 
 

just saying if you’re gonna do it for him solely on this occasion it should be done for everyone else. It’s a reaction on the internet it ain’t that deep.

People gotta learn to use "disagree" simple as that homie.
Also, I don't remain active enough to cover everyone that has been dumb spammed. Needs to get reported or noticed.
