Just remove the -webkit-filter: drop-shadow and filter: drop-shadow lines after you add it, if you're using stylish you can do this by just hitting edit.

Honestly, I think I could've carried on with my life without knowing that the dude still exists.
What a stupid thing to file a lawsuit over.

Maybe you can add onto his modified Ban title by adding an extra bit about his failed Reddit Toxx, or you could post a picture of someone wearing the character costume he promised to wear. :v:
'cares about ratings'
to me it's like, i understand you shouldn't go on rants about OH LOOK STOP GIVING ME DUMBS GODDAMNIT WHY ARE YOU ALL DUMBING ME but it's like, i think it's unfair to say people can't care about ratings on their posts, if people care enough to give them in the first place, you know, but maybe that's just me
(am i gonna get banned for caring about ratings enough to make this post? :v:)

Sgt. Doom told me they ban it the way they do because it's a slippery slope when they don't.

I think it should be fine if it's someone at least trying to make/continue a conversation. Like if someone posted their opinion in a thread and got a bunch of disagrees, they should be able to edit it and say something like "I've noticed a bunch of disagrees, can someone correct me?"
It shouldn't be a big deal as long as they're trying to see other people's perspectives, rather than call people out or build a defense of "these nerds just follow me and rate me all day, so I know I'm right."

like yeah, if i get a bunch of dumbs/disagrees on my post but no replies and i edit to go 'why's that', i don't think that deserves a ban, but if it's like a continued rant/bitch about the ratings, yeah that is probably derailing a thread

I can see where you are coming from, but generally bringing up ratings doesn't really serve any point, if people think your post is dumb and not worthy of a fully fledged reply, then that's that, nobody is really obliged to give you one. It sometimes also can be hard to tell, whether someone is genuinely surprised over their dumb rating, or they just wanna use it to "make a point" or w/e, and if we were to allow more leniency on this, everyone would claim ofc, that they "honestly don't know" why their posts got dumbed and demand an explanation for it, regardless of how obviously stupid it was. Btw, this doesn't mean that we just blindly ban every post that even mentions ratings, but we usually have to assume the worst.

i mean yeah i generally agree with this but i don't see the harm in someone adding an addendum to their current post to ask about it, because even then if they feel entitlemented/obligated to a reply, they're not really doing anything harmful imo (adding a whole new reply making a post JUST about it, for example)

man i can't help but feel a bit 'backseat moderator'-y when i say stuff like that so sorry if i do seem that way, i don't mean it

Perhaps it's not necessarily harmful or annoying in rare isolated cases, but it sure is when it becomes a common occurence, because people think it's an okay thing to complain about ratings, when you don't like them. It might seem like an overly hardline policy from the outside, but in the end it makes life both easier for moderators (because they don't have to argue with rulebreakers whose interpretation of the rules differs from theirs) and users (because they know exactly what's allowed and what isn't).
There's a big difference between "Edit: I'm getting a lot of disagrees, can someone explain why?" and "WOW HOW DARE PEOPLE DISAGREE AND DUMB ME?!"
Like a lot of FP rules, you gotta have a constructive perspective about it. It's not as arbitrary as it seems.
I always want to ask why I'm getting dumbed so the other side can explain itself but I'm always worried about the "cares about ratings" ban

If people wanted to explain why they think it's dumb they would respond in a post. The whole point of ratings is to express an opinion without doing anything else.
[QUOTE=UncleJimmema;52651347]If people wanted to explain why they think it's dumb they would respond in a post. The whole point of ratings is to express an opinion without doing anything else.[/QUOTE]
I feel like though sometimes to the person it's just not obvious why and if they're asking for clarity in a way that doesn't clutter the thread, I don't see a problem. I mean, I've been rated dumb plenty of times and I'm just like 'ok i don't really know why but i can't really edit my post even though it may be something really obvious because then i'll get banned'.
also, just an observation, i've seen people edit posts to say 'hey this isnt late' or 'hey why is this funny' and they don't get banned, it seems more with dumb/disagree ratings even though those can lead to thread derailment too

Is there something wrong with wanting to know why your own opinion sucks?
[QUOTE=Kiwi;52651400]I don't see any benefit gained from caring about a 16x16 png. If you're that clueless the thread will tell you WHY your post sucks anyway and will either counter or roast you.[/QUOTE]
I personally care about it because it's used as a symbol from people who care about my post itself. People use ratings seriously so I feel like it's okay to take them seriously too (within context of this being an internet forum and it not fucking mattering in the grand scheme of things, ofc).
Even then I personally think too many people use dumb in place of disagree but hey I think I'm even more alone on on that
[QUOTE=AtomicSans;52651399]Is there something wrong with wanting to know why your own opinion sucks?[/QUOTE]
Nothings wrong with it, but then at the same time no one has to say anything. Like I said, If people wanted to explain why they rated something they'd do it in a post. Otherwise they really don't care enough to post why (which is once again part of why ratings exist).

The way I see ratings is that they represent intent or opinion of a person. If someone thinks I'm dumb, a tool, etc, then they're just using ratings as a medium to convey that. How is it any different from someone posting "You're an idiot" if the intent is the same? If I care about someone calling me an idiot in text, then why shouldn't I if they're doing it through a 16x16 png? It's representative of opinion like any other medium of communication. Yes, it lacks verbosity which means you can't always accurately gauge intent as well as you can through text, but the fact is, it still is a short-form way of showing intent or opinion.

I should also note I'm not saying it gives you the right to whine, just that you should be allowed to feel annoyed or hurt by them like you may be by a normal post.

It's a tool of expression. What you're saying is akin to saying you shouldn't care about likes/dislikes on a YouTube video because it's a 1px wide png. Sweeping people's opinions under the carpet and hoping they go away never works, even if they aren't written.
