Should have done it like
/.
in the beginning. Probably too late now
:)
.
I don't really mean that, though. I like the simplicity of a yin/yang rating system.

Wish I could rate comments in threads. :P
What do you expect though, Thottbot users migrated since Wowhead is the best..

I could also link 90% of your posts as well.
All of your "green" rated comments are lame jokes.
When those puppies are as large as my character, and they are trying to eat said character, I think it's okay to kill them. HAHAHHAHA wow that's funny and useful. Let's rate that up 49 points.

You obviously didn't look very hard, or are very good at over-exaggerating.
I found at least 5 helpful comments, and his jokes weren't too bad either ;)

Lol'd.
Inb4 inevitable defense mechanism where he tries and fails to attack Asakawa's posts.

I'm going to be crude here, but only
idiots
think that if it's not funny to them, it can't be funny to others.
Humor is subjective.

The ironic part of this thread is that the OP acts like Thottbot's comments were significantly better.
They weren't.

No, I never said that Thottbot's comments were better.
When wowhead first launched, the pages were full of useful information. Whenever someone would post useless crap, people would actually comment "Hey buddy, this isn't thottbot. Please refrain from posting useless information." This doesn't happen anymore.

Pretty sure "It's funny how the OP of this thread doesn't have a great commenting record." was the point he was trying to make.
Princeton University
defines the word Funny as "arousing or provoking laughter."
I seemed to have found the "
vallid
" point which you speak of. It seems my post caused him to laugh, therefore it should be rated up.

I've thought about a "funny vs useful" filter myself. I appreciate the jokes when I'm browsing, but when I'm questing I want to go to the meat of the comments right away, not the dessert.
The main challenge I see there is separating. We could ask people to identify which type of comment they're posting and allow "reports" that vote to change the category. I still think we'd
default
to showing all of the comments, but we'd allow you to click a button to ignore the funny ones.
The change is more time-consuming than it is difficult. The main negative to this functionality would be increased time investment from volunteers/staff to resolve issues in categorization. That alone is a substantial immaterial cost.
I agree with you onyx. Would there be a way to maybe just add another comment tab named "useful info" or something?

you think?
comedy is subjective but usefulness less so. your comments are neither but you attack comments other people have enjoyed reading.
this opens your posting history to scrutiny to see if you're complaining about the same things you're also doing. it becomes clear that you aren't posting information in which wowhead users find any value.
the conclusion is that you should play your part in the machine of wowhead. up and down rate the comments that make an impression on you for good or bad reasons and let the chips fall where they may.
if you dislike a comment that has many + votes and green text then it's because most wowhead users disagree with you and we all breathe a sigh of relief that you're not in charge.

And this brings us back to my OP. "
Wowhead users are #$%^
"
You can cry and say Thottbot was a bad site and WOWHEAD >>>>> Thottbot. The reason thottbot was perceived as being crap was because of the fact that the users could post whatever useless jokes/nonsense that they wanted. The same thing has happened to Wowhead, and with people like YOU that keep posting "jokes" it gets more worse by the day. So unless you have useful information about the item/boss/quest, please refrain from posting whatever is on your mind, we could care less what you have to think about it. Each page isn't intended to be a Diary/Blog of your personal thoughts.
Please pay attention and learn to read before posting again,
Thanks.

You know, if you really find all users as bad you say they are....why are you here? Go to MMOChamp, the official forums, and any other number of sites.

Because I have been coming here since 2006. Nothing is wrong with Wowhead, it's you retarded users that are making it bad.

I think we're beating a dead horse by now, but you've still yet to answer the big question.
Why are you exempt from your own rules and standards?
You have quite a lot of "jokes" posted on the items and NPC pages as well.

I have one "joke" out of all my posts, unlike 95% of your posts. You have yet to have 1 helpful post rated to green.
