I was going to downvote this, but then I realised that would be admitting you won.

I'll have to write an angry comment instead

erm

here goes

You're a stupid libtankietard who votes for chairman musk and all your opinions are based on Facebook and the UN. You probably believe the moon is round. You can't even wear your Arch Socks on the right feet. We should defederate.

Phew I think I won now. I forgot what we were arguing about?

[–] [email protected] 31 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I think to demonstrate how to properly wear your arch socks you should take a pic of yours and post it to the unix socks community to be a good example.

I'm sorry, I don't post explicit photos of myself online.

Look at this someone who thinks you can win an argument on the internet.

[–] GrammarPolice 12 points 2 months ago (6 children)

I think i win when the other person starts resorting to insults at least

I remember when the queen came round to congratulate me on my upvote score, and it added £1000 to my bank account and everyone went around saying "look there they are, wow". But it was all ruined the day the Fire nation attacked.

I love it when i see a bunch of new downvotes in my history after an argument because i count every single one is a tear shed by my opponent

[–] Eheran 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

But why even look at that? Who cares?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Well the way i navigate thru conversations I'm having currently brings me to my history since i'm usually having more than one at a time an i need to know who's replying to what. When one of those is an argument, noticing a bunch of single downvotes while passing thru my history causes air to erupt from my nose because it proves to me that someone I've got beef with is definitely malding.

The points don't matter but the impotent effort they put in does, get me? It feels as close to a win as you'll ever get on the 'net

[–] Eheran 5 points 2 months ago

Ah got it, thanks. I have never seen something like that for me and do not care, so would never look for it.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Yes, downvote my month old Star Trek joke. Cry harder.

[–] PrimeMinisterKeyes 6 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I mentally multiply all votes by anyway.

[–] Gradually_Adjusting 23 points 2 months ago (2 children)

You're really gonna let the world make you care about grumpy little arrow clicks? It diminishes us to even think about it. Each person is a being of pure chaos at the infinite center of creation. You are cosmic, made of stardust and in ways beyond words profound.

Besides, there's no user karma on this site.

[–] GrammarPolice 12 points 2 months ago (4 children)

It's not that i care. It's just weird randomly seeing a lot of my benign comments at 0 upvotes. I can only then wonder how petty one must be to take their time to go through the effort

I love the downvote you got for that. The one lonely little downvote. There's something poetic about it.

I'm reminded of a meme from the early 2000s. keep in mind it was a completely different time.

arguing with someone online is like the special Olympics. you may win but everyone looks retarded.

[–] Clinicallydepressedpoochie 20 points 2 months ago (1 children)

"Win an argument online"

The very best is when some fucking loser goes back through your comment history and says, "Oh ya, well..." and brings up something you wrote months ago to try to embarrass you into silence. Fuck those pathetic fucking losers.

[–] Rhoeri 19 points 2 months ago (1 children)

This you?

Hehehe. Yes.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I love seeing when someone goes to find a months old comment and they pull out just.. meh shit.

They spent all their time going through someone's profile for the tamest stuff.

Me here down voting your histo because I don't like your user name.

[–] GrammarPolice 11 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Watch it buddy. I don't fuck around. If i catch you making any spelling mistakes, it's straight to the slammer right after i brutally shove you to the ground making you struggle for air

As you fail to capitalize two I's and neglected a period at the end of your statement.

He's a cop: don't expect him to actually follow the rules he enforces.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Kinna off topic but do you get corrected on your grammar often with that username?

[–] GrammarPolice 8 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I never make grammar mistakes

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

2/2 of your comments ITT are missing periods.

[–] GrammarPolice 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I only enforce the rules not follow them👮😎

lmao, it's always so obvious when it happens. If they just downvoted my political opinions, it'd be whatever, but when they downvote things like providing sources and explanations for anodyne posts? Just tells me I can mentally subtract 1 downvote from all my recent comments.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

This comment annoys me. I'm down voting your previous comment.

Everyone's in here talking about downvotes... I read this meme and thought "You seriously get into arguments on the internet?" The most I'll do is leave a comment telling someone they're full of it and then ignore the rest. Since the comment is more for the silent masses reading than the person I'm replying to. Hey, kinda like this comment. OP probably will spend their days in smug misery but I hope the rest of yall can step away from this petty bullshit some time.

I thought it was a feature of Lemmy that karma don't mean shit.

Or to more precisely put it, Lemmy accumulates up/down votes to their actual worth.

[–] _Sprite 10 points 2 months ago (5 children)

Tankies announcing they won an argument after they finished making claims without evidence and then deleting the comments of the other person.

Honestly, I am so happy that Lemmy doesn't tie votes to any points like Reddit. It's a pity that people will still find a way to bring points into arguments. Yeah it sucks when people disagree with you, but can't always be right all the time either.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

The only arguments you win are the ones you don't participate in. Internet arguments are a race to the bottom of who can waste the least time.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

The nice thing about YouTube is that that isn't possible.

It's a dumb feature that should be opt-in.
