This forum sucks!

Honestly, this forum is filled with so many ignorant/biased/immature 13 yr olds, I can't take it. I get neg repped 10-15 times a day for this that and every other thing. For example, I got neg repped yesterday for ADMITTING I was wrong and telling someone else they were right. I think it's ironic that everyone disses Sherdog on this forum but I haven't found a more immature forum in my life. If it wasn't for the handful of mature, intelligent REAL MMA fans on here, I'd never post here ever again. /RANT

That's the Internet for you. It's probably going to get worse as MMA gets more and more popular. I don't even see the idiot posts any more. It's like my eyes jump over them automatically. I haven't experienced the negative rep thing yet. I must not be saying the right things. Guess I'll have to try harder!

I feel you bro, sometimes(esp before, during, and after events) we get a surge of noobs. Some people I know don't even post during those times just to avoid them. Best thing to do is just ignore them and enjoy the good posting part of the forum. And don't worry about neg rep. I used to stress about it, but who cares now. But just don't take it out on the forum. This forum is generally good, and our staff does a pretty good job of weeding out the crap. The best way to change this forum is to make it better. Post intelligent threads, make meaningful discussions. Complaining won't do anything.

At every big event we get more and more members, most just stop posting after a week or so. Just hang in there and if you see any new members acting up, let a mod know and we'll handle it. :thumb02:
There doesn't seem to be a mod on that often because of the events time zone...The mods do a great job but they can't be on all the time so i said to Trey and Adminmma if they wanted a mod in the Australian tome zone aka me but i am fine with any mod that is in the worst time zones for mods being off.

I got one of those too.

I think it's that Impaled666/he who needs a hug/etc or that Frankin20 idiot.

I got a few very "colorful" negs myself.

This forum really doesn't suck, at least not compared to others. I don't post in other forums ever because they are filled with much more immature people. Don;t worry about the neg rep thing, once I posted a full event cause someone requested it and they neg repped me then said thank you. Who cares, everywhere you go there will be idiots, at least here there are some intellignent decent people to even out the mix.

you.:wink02:

just kidding...it is the guys that come on and go,

"Ortiz is the best fighter in the world and no one can beatz himz!!!11!1"

and then Ortiz is beaten by Chuck and they go
"OMFG ortiz didnt lose he got poked in the eye because chuck is so cheap that n00bz!1!11!"

No regards to Ortiz or Ortiz fans that actually know what they are talking about.

Don't worry about it, there will always be idiots on the internet but we have to learn to ignore them.

OWNED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Am I one of them?
Nope. I think you're a good guy. I thought BJJ Boy was too until I got neg rep for giving him some advice, but whatever. People are just stubborn on the internet and don't want advice from other people, I understand that better now.

I hear you bro. I've given up. I try not to even visit my user cp anymore.

Just ignore the neg rep shit. Ignore the 13 year old kids. Just visit their profile and click "ignore this user", and you will never have to lose sleep over it again. If your getting a lot of neg reps and you're not liking it, make some more good posts to earn more green rep. Use the negrep as motivation to try to earn more positive rep if it really matters to you.

I swear to God Ive gotta be the most unjustifiably neg repped user in mmaforum history :laugh: :laugh:

Basically every other person Ive seen on here with a red reputation is either a ******* moron or a blatant troll.

But it's all whatever dude this forum is badass. I think there's quite a few legitimate MMA fans on here and I enjoy seeing the opinions of other fans like me. Sherdog's absolutely unbearable, this is an infinitely better place to intelligently discuss MMA. Sure people puff their chests over the internet sometimes and get on bizarre little power trips but does it really matter? Why worry about rep, who cares.
