This thread is, quite literally, me suggesting the Ignore feature work better and everybody flinging garbage at the podium in response.

If you want stickers to 'mean anything', or appear at all, you can leave your Ignore list blank. If a user is the functional equivalent of a robot that downvotes without posting, you should have the freedom to stymie that. What's the argument against this?
Dude.

This is not fucking reddit, responding to everything with tl;dr paragraphs is stupid; Sometimes rating something is dumb or you disagree is the most optimal response.

Reddit would reflexively upvote or downvote and move on, not write a paragraph response. What do you think Reddit is actually like?

Guys I hope you've all prepared your essays! After all its the only proper way to ridicule someone as any other post shows that you are in fact the one who is mad and wrong!
An exploration of spergs on Kiwi Farms

"Don't plea for sympathy." The last of a simple set of guidelines written for browsing the Forum Discussion board of Kiwi Farms. What should be a simple goal for all users turns into a Herculean task when a sperg is involved. The sperg will not accept anything which deviates from their desires: you rate their post dumb-they sperg; you tell them to do a flip for being exceptional-they demand action be taken. These actions fall under a unique position of being lolcowish and worthy of ridicule. The sperg however deems reasonable responses an attack upon them, and that other posters are "having some sort of fit over that suggestion for reasons that don't make any sense." Within this response an exploration on the meaning of stickers and why they should not bother the typical forum user will be made.

The first order of business is to identify when a sperg is truly mad about the stickers. At what point does one enter the territory of anger in regards to colorful little markings at the bottom of the post? The response to said stickers will look something like this:
"It will earn me 500 downvotes, but since stickers apparently don't matter I'm willing to risk it."

Here it is evident that the user knows they are about to receive downvote stickers, and in order to soften the blow and pre-emptively address the expected 'MATI' reply he has decided to open with the classic "stickers do not matter" defense. It is blatantly obvious due to responses that this user did care about the stickers, as his initial request follows:The Ignore User function should also hide any ratings they give to posts. This post reveals his true emotions and thus allows us to understand why the user is angry. Responses along the lines of "u mad" and "faggot" are acceptable and necessary to inform the user that this is spergy and he should probably stop.

The next order of business is to figure out why such a post was made. The user in question made two posts expressing how he handled the situation prior which highlights how much of a sperg he truly is:
"I disabled all notifications period. I'm just tired of seeing the same routine, over and over."

This post informs us that he is receiving no notifications in regards to his posts, but is still mad. Surely he has ignored the user as well in order to prevent him from seeing said poster within threads?
"None...To me, it seems like Ignore exists less to block out differing opinions and more to block the kind of accounts I just mentioned. But it doesn't really do that."

So the user has also not ignored any users, while demanding the ignore feature does more. This paradoxical stance thus informs us once again that the user is a sperg and therefore should be mocked incessantly for caring so much about his posts being rated on a gossip site, while also not taking every step possible to avoid said user who has throttled his emotions so badly.

To speculate we can hypothesize on the type of sperg behind these posts. With the information present we can see that his posts are spergy, and that he does not quite truly understand how socialization works. It may be a stretch, but it is not unreasonable to assume this poster may be "low IQ" or did not receive enough socialization from adult figures in his life causing him to isolate and become the sperg he is today. An additional exploration reveals how hurt he is by the situation and his desire to avoid the issue and create his own "safe space" also highlights the possibility of the user being a "snowflake" who is uncomfortable with being challenged. His demand for users to "debate him" and engage with his behavior also highlights a highly aggressive stance present in individuals with a lower IQ.

To summarize there is a reason the site has guidelines which you should follow. In order to prevent yourself from being laughed at more or to make the site more enjoyable overall. One type of advice which could aid in the use of a site would be a classic line reserved for newer users:
