The Curious Case of @Fascist Kirk - Or, Why I Hate Stickers and People Who Care About Them

Isn't having every user subscribe to instant sticker dopamine great? Look at how these stickers affect human behavior. I'm basically the Sticker Psychologist, the greatest sticker psychologist the world has ever fucking seen, and this is me introducing stimuli to see how human behavior changes.
I'll be curious to read your findings when you release your paper in Nature or somesuch.
I just assume this stuff is super common
Everyone who agrees with you is a fed to befriend you and get you to do something stupid. Everyone who disagrees with you is also a fed, to provoke you into something stupid. Everyone who ignores you is also a fed, but they have a different assignment.
 
@Null I know I was a real thorn in your side during the whole sticker war fiasco last year, but I genuinely do appreciate having the sticker notifs back as a barometer of how actively read threads I post in are.

That said, that's pretty much the only value I have with the feature. Is there any actual effect a negative vs positive net rating of stickers even has on a post other than the Highlight feature? This just seems mega autistic on this guy's side
 
Stickers simply aren't the same if you are using socks to give them or mass negrating someone's posts. The joy of stickers comes from making a good post and receiving pozrates from other respected members of the website. Negrates are your sword of judgement that is to be wielded carefully. Mass negrating just removes all meaning from any individual negrate.
