Post notifications have not existed on this website for a decade. I would know.

The rest of your post is bullshit. Sticker alerts accomplish none of that.
You're shit's all retarded and you're talking like a fag.

Ultimately it's your site and you can cry if you want to, but don't you think it says something if a sizable portion of your userbase found a feature useful, even if it didn't fit the autistically rigid way you'd like then to use it? This is a hell of a meltdown, nobody is crying that they lost their reddit karma, they're upset a useful feature got removed because you got MATI.
 
I would have voted yes but the fearless martyrs of the sticker revolt are so goddamn funny and retarded I hope Null takes it away forever. It's literally one extra click to get to 'Reactions Received', you damn dirty apes.
But I'm lazy! And now I have to use the site in a different way how will I cope with trying to figure this out?
 
No, I removed it specifically because I've realized that not only have many, many users apparently trained their brains to use a forum specific way that is counter-intuitive to how forums are supposed to work, but you're also making posting decisions based on that feedback.

This started because I received feedback from multiple users that they prefer to post in fucking retarded DM chains specifically because they don't want negative feedback on their posts. They have been discouraged from using this webforum as a forum because they do not feel safe to post as a result of these incessant notifications and looming persistent scorecard ratings. That is FUCKING STUPID. That means the site is broken and is fundamentally failing to encourage people to use it. It means that the reaction system, which exists to provide feedback on individual posts, is having a chilling effect on the entire site.

I am not undoing this. I am observing genuine psychological damage inflicted on people.
You're scared of peer pressure affecting snowflakes? For someone who hates reddit, you're thinking in a very reddit way.
 
This is how i imagine the kiwis that don't engage in meta discussion have been for the last 2 days

I wish r/TheDonald still existed so you could go back.
 
some fags getting sand in their vaginas shouldn't have to result in me having to use site features i haven't touched in a near decade to replace the convenience i had previously.
I understand that your parents never told you "no" and you throw a shitfit every time something doesn't go your way? Grow the fuck up and learn something new instead of screeching like an autistic child because your wardrobe got moved to the other side of your room. This is such a non-issue that the amount of screeching about it genuinely hints half of you retards have developmental issues.
 
I like the sticker reacts because it's a way to interact with a thread when you have no actual information or comments to add. Plus the highlight feature is super useful in bigger busier threads. Getting notifications is nice because I'm a human and humans are social creatures and it is nice to have my posts acknowledged with stickers of people agreeing or disagreeing or just expressing appreciation for providing information.

Frankly I don't really see why the entire userbase is being punished for the retarded actions of a handful of faggots, that's just retard public school behavior. That sort of punishment is used to make the majority peer pressure the troublemakers into behaving but that can't be done if they're doing all their faggotry in private DM chains in the first place.

Anyway

When a person might kill themselves and link it to the site, feelings matter dipshit.
Are you implying that Null is or should be curtailing expression of sentiment on this site because somewhere some child diddling tranny might kill themselves? Or are you implying we should all be super duper nice to one another because otherwise some mentally fragile faggot with no life accomplishments might get ass mad enough to finally commit sudoku? Because with either one, I don't agree. If someone kills themselves because of negrates, quite frankly that's on them.
I look who's NOT talking. Silence is communication of its own. I think people fear getting blasted because they made a mild take that A&N bitched over because it was left of Hitler, which is to say conservative, but not enough for /pol/ tards.
So in other words you're basing your argument on the people in your clique not posting in A&N? Reminder that A&N is one sub forum and probably isn't even the busiest.
 
A chilling effect on whom, exactly? Diaper-filling babies like HHH? (whom, I would like to reiterate, I am very disappointed in after finding out today he wasn't obsessively getting into slapfights with the conservatards on this site as a wrestling heel gimmick and was actually just super booty-blasted people weren't giving him enough ass-pats) Why cater to people who fill up mod queues with hurt feelings? The notifications were togglable, I'd argue these people you're saying were bullied out of using the forum were the real ones using the site wrong since they apparently didn't know you could turn those notifications off.
I doubt it was him. In fact, I think it might be the opposite.

Not to drudge up old wounds, but the only time I can think of people running away to DMs specifically because of stickers was because there were people pissed off at the ones HHH, and others were giving to them.

I wonder if something similar is happening again, and that's what's really going on.
 
just throwing in my retarded 2 cents; i don't give a fuck about the loss of post points or whatever shit. i liked the interaction that the notifications gave, showing you that people are seeing what you say and having some kind of thought about it.

unlike on a shithole like reddit, i can see that people - good or bad - are actually seeing what i say. it's always been one of the things i enjoyed ever since moving to KF. if ya gotta keep 'em gone, i'll get over it, but it's a feature i liked as one of your users.
 
It's less about feelings and more about not wanting to deal with bullshit.
Then it would make more sense to take your problem to the actual people causing it, the faggots making reports about stickers and mass inviting everyone to DMs against their will. Even though the site already had functionality to deal with both of those issues that users refuse to use. But apparently 80% of the site is in the wrong, not the small minority of faggots that actually cause you problems.

I don't report people or clog up talk to staff because my feelings are hurt. I stay loyal to this site even though it's constantly down and broken and for some reason I'm being made out to be the retard for not wanting to be fucked with. I don't appreciate being gaslit for speaking up about valid complaints. Not that you care.
User safety is always a concern btw. If people didn't think I took their safety seriously they'd not post.
User safety has absolutely nothing to do with withholding posting because people are afraid of criticism. Getting notifications that you have the ability to turn off or getting mean stickers does not make a user more or less safe on this site. This is the same stupid cop-out that the woke play and I am shocked to hear this cognitive dissonance from you.
 
I feel like sticker notifications have been a positive overall and I don't understand the outrage. If someone posts something dumb, they deserve the negative sticker rates spamming them. If they get assmad over it and leave, then they weren't fit for here in the first place. I've been rated nothing but like 20+ negrates on posts sharing my opinion and I haven't given a shit. Only a coward would.

Along with this it also lets people see how their post is being received in general by the site's userbase. I feel like it just leads to the average newfag turning into a better user more.
 
Once upon a time a hero, an artist, a wholesome kiwi created stickers for the site. Many years later after many changes, the tradition he started is about to get Nulled. He revisited us tonight to give one final stickerless reaction. With this gesture he gave us his blessing to continue stickerless, and assured us that it is okay, and we should have hearts strong enough to let go of the stickers just like he did.

For posterity.

 
I just liked knowing if people were reading my posts without having to check back on the page itself. A lot of people aren't going to type out full replies and that's what stickers are for. I just want to browse other parts of the site after doing something like updating a thread I'm working on and not having to sit there and monitor if people thought how I changed update formats were positive or negative or things to that effect.
 
Kind of "straw-man"-y? There are many users like me who disagree moderately and are thinking logically.
Yeah and I was on your side because I also use received ratings to remember which threads I've been looking at recently and I didn't see why people shouldn't be able to get it as a bell note if they wanted, but now my enjoyment over how mad and dumb so many people are getting over stickers has taken the wheel.
