badposting is a comm where you post badly

This is not a !the_dunk_tank@hexbear.net alternative. This is not a !memes@hexbear.net alternative. This is a place for you to post your bad posts.

Ever had a really shitty bit idea? Joke you want to take way past the point of where it was funny? Want to feel like a stand-up comedy guy who's been bombing a set for the past 30 minutes straight and at this point is just saying shit to see if people react to it? Really bad pun? A homemade cringe concoction? A cognitohazard that you have birthed into this world and have an urge to spread like chain mail?

Rules:

  1. Do not post good posts.
    • Unauthorized goodposting is to be punished in the manner of commenting the phrase "GOOD post" followed by an emoji that has not yet been used in the thread
    • Use an emoticon/kaomoji/rule-three-abiding ASCII art if the rations run out
  2. This is not a comm where you direct people to other people's bad posts. This is a comm where you post badly.
  3. This rule intentionally left blank.
  4. If you're struck for rule 3, skill issue, not allowed to complain about it.

Code of Conduct applies just as much here as it does everywhere else. Technically, CoC violations are bad posts. On the other hand: L + ratio + get ~~better~~ worse material bozo

Others users (not me) have been flooding the market with humor and funny jokes that ~~I cannot compete with~~ violate rules on international posting, namely in the market of badposting.

From now on, posts must be 50% funnier to get my upbear. All other users must follow this rule as well, except for my posts, which you must now upbear on site to fix these market distortions. Obviously, my posts are superior, but the quality can not come through because users lack the freedom of choice to upbear in a market dominated by users who are not me.

Thank you.

50 per cemt funnier than what?

[–] shreddingitlater@hexbear.net 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Great question, these decisions are never made lightly, so a lot of thought went into this number to ensure the greatest amount of fairness - and we believe this number makes things 45% more fair. Not ideal, but a great start to this economic dialogue.

In terms of that 50% figure, well, we folk from the older generation got a saying, it goes "60% of the time, it works everytime". Now this doesn't make much sense on the surface, but the same idea applies here. I'm sure readers will catch on to my meaning here.

Again, thanks for the excellent question.
