[QUOTE=Biotoxsin;28823305]Honestly I don't think it's a very funny thing to do. In fact I think it's cruel.[/QUOTE]
Kicking them while they're down.
[QUOTE=Biotoxsin;28823397]Stupid or not, do you think that someone who is bad enough off to be using 'OkCupid' is going to be mentally well? I can see it ending with someone killing themself from humiliation. Oh, wait, thats what they want isn't it? That would be 'funny'.[/QUOTE]
and there might be those who laugh at it. nobody knows
"we want to fuck with those who tread on our rights of speech"
"LOLZ GAIZ LETS PRANK DATING SITES LOXLLX"
you don't see the flaw in that argument, privatesmily?
Makes me loose hope for people in this world. Why cant everyone just be nice?
I'll give it to them; that's brilliant.
All you really need to do is sit back and imagine how lonely the people who thought of this are.
Do they really have nothing better to do then sit on a computer and try to make others look bad? Seems to me like they lack any real friends and probably are too obese to go out and find some. Guess we'll just have to find out how many people fall for this.
[QUOTE=Biotoxsin;28823683]The only people who use dating sites are people who either lack the time for dating and meeting people, or the people who are unable to meet people otherwise. The first group, being primarily comprised of business professionals (at the very least people who work long hours or travel a lot) generally deal with a fair to high amount of stress with work, and will generally suffer greatly for damage to their image. The later group is comprised of people who for whatever reason are unable to socialize normally - be it mental illness, personality problems, or a bad history with the people they interact with on a regular basis. It could be a single-dad who lacks the time to socialize normally because of his house-hold responsibilities. An attack as such on an individual as described could easily result in great damage to their image, personal or public. Humiliated, they might even resort to suicide. The people who are planning this are pathetic, they try to create elaborate reasons for attacking corporations that affect the common man negatively, then turn around and pull shit like this for laughs without thinking of the repercussions. It's not funny at all, and anyone who thinks it is needs to take a hard look at their-self and their actions.[/QUOTE]
So, the only people who use OkCupid are corporate workhorses and the suicidally depressed?
jk you just made this up didn't you

it has lots of words you need to rate it agree
[QUOTE=Nightsure;28823352]You would have to be pretty stupid to fall for this you have to admit[/QUOTE]
How?
It's a legitimate, common thing on a site like that. How could you really know if they do it properly? It's clearly not going to be filled with crap like "LOL THIS IS A 4CHAN PRANK IDIOTZ!".

I think people were rating him agree mainly because for the second half of his post, where he's saying anyone okay with this has serious problems.

This is what 4chan has always done though, to Jessi Slaughter and Chris-Chan and whoever else, why the sudden group sympathy? Because a bunch of guys who can't get dates strikes too close to home?
This is just fucking mean.

4channers can't identify with girls or the handicapped therefore they're fair game
I didn't have a statistical basis for saying that, but it's what I'd imagine the majority of their userbase to be comprised of. I can't see people using a dating site for another reason than that other than perhaps ease
it's not even like anything worth watching's gonna to happen. people are just gonna show up, mull about, realize what's going on, and go home without saying much. it's not even an interesting mean-spirited prank
Trolls gonna troll.
Theres a 5 percent chance this would end up good with the guys at the street sad and confused is suddenly together with a bunch of other lonely single women that heard about all the single men.
There is also 1 percent chance this would end a orgy.

Yeah and this is why I have hard time supporting anything they do. Because a large group of Facepunch see them as fellow underlings so anything they do is in the right. In truth, 4chan ruined all of those people's lives not because they insulted us for no reason, but because they tried to fight back.
Those here who still remember Jessi Slaughter talk like she deserved it even though if you look at what Actually happened. 4chan was completely in the wrong just as they are now. Just because this is what they normally do doesn't mean we should just approve of it.
[b]FACEPUNCH'S Double Troll/Sympathetic Fix:[/b]
[b]1.[/b] Make an OkCupid account as a buff dude or douchebag.
[b]2.[/b] Contact forever alone nerd girls (which most likely exist on OkCupid)
[b]3.[/b] Tell them to go to 46th and Broadway at the same time the guys go there.
Who knows what will happen.

This will be a lot harder because according to OkCupid's stats, women respond to messages at an exponentially lower rate than men do.

Well no shit, they have control over any relationship that forms.

Actually it will be easier, all we have to do is only contact the girls that reply "often." Apparently there is a thing that tells you how selectively they respond.

So do men. Relationships are supposed to be between mutually consenting parties.

No, it's not.
[QUOTE=TH89;28829116]This is what 4chan has always done though, [/QUOTE]
Like I said, serious problems.
[QUOTE=TH89;28831455]So do men. Relationships are supposed to be between mutually consenting parties.[/QUOTE]
The divorce rate in American says otherwise my good sir. While I agree that they should be mutually consenting....one or the other eventually gains the upper hand.
