TheSockMonster posted... it's honestly creepy how deeply most of you seem to look into peoples' account history a low karma user with a ton of posts doesn't indicate anything, you're just allowing it to confirm your biases Step 1: click on username Step 2: read brief summary of user information Step 3: see if there's an extensive post history I mean that takes about 6 seconds, and it's worth it's weight in gold if it means not getting drawn into a stupid argument with someone who's only goal is to irritate you. can't you just decide this based on the actual contents of their posts It's less "hah, they have 10 karma, they're a shitposter!" and more "hmm, there's a bunch of shitposting going on here by this user, I wonder if their account looks suspicious". That might sound overly involved but honestly, it's the best way I've found to not get involved with someone. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. http://i.imgur.com/ILz2ZbV.jpg <cite>pinky0926 posted [p:892198967] in Do you ha...
