Last night for the seeming bajillionth time, I was approached in the discords.
Sadly, this time it wasn't a saucy Eastern European lady with flirty fingers.
Nah, it was just some dude who I vaguely recognised as having downvoted some days before.
There was little foreplay with this chap and it was straight to the main course, as described below.
Fannybadger: Hey, meesterboom. Why did you downvote me?
Me: hey chick. Nothing personal. It's because you used a bidbot. Which defeats the point of manual curation and ultimately affects the viability of the whole Steemit platform.
Fannybadger: What?? I'm not a fucking chick, man. I'm a dude. And that's fucking bullshit man and you know it.
Me: I don't think it's bullshit.
Fannybadger: It is bullshit. You are the one killing the platform. Forcing people to leave.
At this point I had to presume Fannybadger was masturbating and was slightly delirious with the pudding pulling.
Me: I think more people left when bid-bots were in the ascendant.
To be honest I don't think I have ever said in the ascendant before but sometimes I like to bait people by being an arse.
Fannybadger: That's bullshit man and you know it.
Damn. The ascendant comment never really worked. I figured I would have to make more of an effort.
Me: I don't think it's bullshit.
Fannybadger: It's fucking bullshit. Why don't you downvote shit content with no effort put into it?
Me: I thought I was.
Fannybadger: What? What's that meant to mean?
Me: Quack.
Fannybadger: I use bid-bots so that curators don't get fucked over by the HF-21 changes
Me: Quack?
Fannybadger: and for promotion to help get more eyes on my posts
Me: Quack quack?
Fannybadger: asshole
Me: Quaack?
But the conversation seemed to be over. I can only presume that they had used me for sexual purposes and had ejaculated by this point.
I have had a fair few of these exchanges all of which are depressingly similar.
Which reminds me of a wise saying that I made up minutes ago and attributed to an ancient philosopher.
Pull away the tit and the fat baby screams.
Such wisdoms. :0D
