Ahab Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 This goes out to our longsuffering moderators, who day after day shoulder the thankless task of enforcing board guidelines, filtering out uncivil speech, detecting straying inmates from the Exiles' Board and other sock puppets, reining in board nannies, and generally making this board a tolerable place for holding forth discussion. To these noble but anonymous men and/or women, I say:Will you be my sycophants?You actually want them to disagree with you? Would it matter to you if they got angry with you, too? Or would you rather that they be nice while disagreeing with you?What kind of sycophants do you want them to be? What if they disagree with you about that being the way they should be?
TAO Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Nemesis? Minion? Grrrr is my minion! Now obey the fist!!!You need to make it so we can give mods plus points =D. 2
Ahab Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 You need to make it so we can give mods plus points =D.What's the opposite of a sychophant? That's what you'd be if you agreed with them. 1
wayfarer Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 you all get rep points for being good little sycophants! 1
mfbukowski Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 you all get rep points for being good little sycophants!Oh yeah? You can't promise your sycophants stuff and not pay them. Come on now- pay up!! 2
Calm Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Yes, I can tell some of you have many many sycophants.Since I don't get a sense of an approving tone there, no rep points for you, sir!
Calm Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 I'm going to sing the DOOM song now!I may go find some other posts of yours to rep to give you full value for that post....
Calm Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 You actually want them to disagree with you? Not getting your drift here....
Calm Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 I can tell by the low amount of rep points in some posts some of you are not fully entering into the true spirit of sycophantism.
wayfarer Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 I can tell by the low amount of rep points in some posts some of you are not fully entering into the true spirit of sycophantism.either that...or there is a quota on how many rep points you can issue in a day... even sycophantism has its limits.
Calm Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 I don't know what the number is, I think most can do 10, but once you are a contributor (can't remember how many posts that is) you get 50.

I KNEW it!!! 1
Ahab Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 I can tell by the low amount of rep points in some posts some of you are not fully entering into the true spirit of sycophantism.So you think people are giving out more rep points to the people they don't agree with?That actually makes a WHOLE lot of sense to me now. No wonder some people have so many points.

Nemesis Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 Parasite? Sounds alot like mdb! Is mdb our sycophant?Nemesis
Nemesis Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 You missed the "fawning" part.Couldn't their obsession with this board be considered fawning? I mean isn't it like when a young boy is mean to a girl in grade school? Nemesis

For some reason I thought there was some truth to what wayfarer was saying about how those who disagree with him should be labeled as "sycophants." As if it was a term that applied to those who disagree with people.Duh me! All I had to do was look in a dictionary, huh. 2
