That's why I hate the upvote/downvote system. Not necessarily. If you think about it, most viral reddit posts came from people nobody had ever heard of. Sure, some people are going to upvote just due to popularity, but for many people, an upvote is going to be based on the post itself, and not simply who posted it. --- Money is overrated... |

I always lol when people say 'omg the upvotes/downvotes is just a big circlejerk!!' Sure beats the hell out of how the boards on this site get moderated. Jokes get deleted and actual trolling gets left up unless it's blatant name calling. To be fair, this board has shifted greatly from the hyperliberal circlejerk it used to be, and things have toned down (like, WAY down...). I suppose that's both a blessing and a curse. --- Money is overrated... |

shipwreckers 07/26/17 5:43:10 PM #1 | I can't stand Upvoting / Downvoting in general, but I'm curious how it would play out on this site (especially since they've talked about implementing it in the past). If Gamefaqs ever (heaven forbid) actually did implement this, which PotDers do you think would have the absolute highest Upvotes here??? Personally, I'm guessing maybe PO, or Adjl (on a good day). Nade may also have a shot in certain topics. I would say Nudo, but he keeps leaving for such long periods, people forget about him. What do you guys think??? If Gamefaqs turned into a mini-reddit (again, heaven forbid), who would dominate??? --- Money is overrated... |

shipwreckers 07/15/17 12:50:17 PM #5 | ParanoidObsessive posted... shipwreckers posted...Granted they're not trying to defend him, per se. But, as a TL;DR - They're just pointing out that the "confirmation bias" cuts both ways (from each side of the political fence; left or right). It does seem like a desperation move on their part. As you said, the bias is going to be there whether they admit it or not. Pretty much every news / info source out there is going to CLAIM to be unbiased (even the likes of CNN and Breitbart). But, since confirmation bias is something that happens in a natural, often undetectable manner, I sometimes wonder if it's even humanly possible to ever have a truly OBJECTIVE information source. Heck, even our dictionaries have bias (comparing the same exact word between Webster vs. Oxford vs. Caimbridge, etc.) --- Money is overrated... |

shipwreckers 07/13/17 1:06:57 PM #1 | For "fact-checking" sites like Snopes, it's critical to make sure you have no bias or slant. But lately, Snopes has been getting much more skepticism as a left-leaning source of information, rather than the neutral source they CLAIM to be. So, out-of-the-blue, they recently published an in-depth article about the different types of lies AGAINST Trump. http://www.snopes.com/2017/07/12/trump-lies/ Granted they're not trying to defend him, per se. But, as a TL;DR - They're just pointing out that the "confirmation bias" cuts both ways (from each side of the political fence; left or right). Very interesting stuff. --- Money is overrated... |

Topic | Black Desert Online |
shipwreckers 05/28/17 11:32:28 PM #7 | The game has promise, but it's so clunky, unpolished, and tedious. Like..., oh dear LORD "what were they thinking?" level of clunky. Just for starters, every town in the entire game has a separate "bank" (and the game is stingy as hell with inventory space, so you pretty much have to use it). If you deposit an item in a bank, you have to travel BACK TO THE SAME TOWN WHERE YOU DEPOSITED THE ITEM. To add insult to injury, your mounts constantly run out of stamina so you HAVE to replenish them over and over and over (and since the game forces you to travel on foot from town to town to get your items from the dozens of separate banks, be ready to spend a good portion of your playtime simply moving from Point A to Point B). If that sounds like fun, then by all means, play Black Desert. --- Money is overrated... |
