The last downvote happened.

I vented 6k contributed comments and posts worth of random unexplained disapproval, there.

Baseless downvotes annoy me over time, so I provoked the type of people who make them out of the woodwork so I could take a couple swings. Lo and behold, worked exactly the way any idiot could predict.

I feel much better now.

How devoid of value is your life that you let a couple of meaningless downvotes get you this bent out of shape?

I will give you credit for creativity for somehow claiming victory because you managed to let so many people piss you off so many times.

Can you whine about it some more though, this is oh so much fun!

And do you seriously think me so dumb that I thought for a second my edits wouldn't summon even more downvotes? That my adversarial stance would actually make anyone back off?

Only one person ticked me off here.

I'm the one who then managed to piss off something like two dozen of you douchebags.

The internet doesn't deal with angry users the way we deal with angry people in person, with care, sympathy and caution.

When people think someone is losing it online, you pile on like the psychopaths you are.

Yeah, nothing says “I’m not mad” more than multiple replies that are several paragraphs long.

Keep coping though.

You can't know. No one can read facial cues and body language from text, and thereby mood.

So the best we can do with mere words, is use enough of them to get our point across.

What is yours? Couldn't help noticing that you've been reduced to "having a lot to say means angery" which is not much of a anything. It only works if you happen to be coincidentally right, and even then there's no causal link.

It's basically a sad attempt at geting the last word in, but without actually saying anything.

You're just pushing buttons in the dark hoping to find one that hurts. And you won't even know when or even if you succeed. What kind of person does that?

And you won't even know when or even if you succeed

The book reports you keep throwing up in response beg to differ.

And you're boring me. You basically promised to entertain me, but this is kiddie shit.

I give you logic and you go "nuh-uh, ur totally mad" as if that doesn't make you the guy with a raging hate-boner furiously fapping at the misery you think you're causing.

Don’t make it weird, man, just fume without trying to work out whatever sex kink you have going on. This isn’t the place.

You're the one who wanted to fool around. You were already impotent... But fucking hell... You've got nothing left after you go flaccid.

0/5, would not screw around with you again.

Exactly, it's meaningless, yet not without consequence. An early downvote can kill a post by smothering its visibility when new.

I take issue with people taking baseless action, doing, even when they can't possibly back it up with words, and affecting things in ways they are too dumb to even consider.

Such instances are infuriating. Exemplary of the worst in us.

I see you're having a go at putting some sentences together to excuse a type of parasitical behaviour even more toxic than mine, but whatever.

You'll have to do better than this now that I've got the whole thing out of system.
