Should we have the bullshit flag back?

[ayanna]

As has already been pointed out...it's not gone...I personally don't see why it should be gone.

I'm the first (usually) to "raise the flag", although I seldom use the actual emoticon of the flag.

Takes me less time to say what I want in words than it does to find an emoticon.

Note: I voted yes, 'cause I dun see why not...if it's used in moderation, AND with a few words to back up the use of it!

I say yes, as long as we don't spam the flag to hell and back its a simple way to get as much thought as possible, with as little effort as possible. Sure its annoying when you see a half a dozen or so posts that all have the same .gif on them, but it happens so rarely I'm not going to be that bothered by it.

Typing a whole paragraph just to say that a thread/post is bullshit is unnecessary. Seriously, people who are retarded enough to post something exaggeratedly incredible don't deserve the time and effort to be written an essay about why everyone thinks they're lying.

I mean, f*ck, why should we be nice with liars, creeps, perverts and pedophiles?

Because people get butthurt easily.

It's true, but it doesn't excuse anything.

I agree. But I doubt the bs flag would only be used on them. And when it isn't... it IS hurtful.

I could care less if we do...But I selected no...If you see a bullshit post, do what I did on that recent one, and call them out on it, but say like they can try to change your mind...Which obviously he didn't, but still...

There's the question of the hour.

Anyone have an explanation?

We're not the freakin Care Bears here (as much as some people would like to be).

So we don't reduce ourselves to the same level by being untactful, dim-witted and just generally assholes?

Sometimes people need to be total arseholes to people who deserve it.
