If you get your feelings hurt when someone else is out of touch then you're the problem. It's not like their loved ones are here monitoring posts on CE.

Between all the edginess and playing dumb, there's no wonder why so many guys here are social outcasts irl lmfao

That's practical not edgy. No one is getting their feelings hurt from this kind of behavior. It's the definition of fake outrage.

Let me add "Lack of self-awareness" and "Inability to read a room" to that list.

None of which should be moddable offenses, which is what the topic is about.

You ever notice how several of the people saying D just happen to be among CE's worst posters like refmon and Kolibri X

I don't think that's pure coincidence

And seemingly don't understand the definition of being presumptuous.

Not going to lie that just "who" is douchy. But I will laugh at people that are like "just use google". This is a discussion forum. Asking a genuine question about the mentioned deceased is furthering the discussion. Or the OP could actually post a wiki link or a short description of the person so people reading the thread would have something to post about.

Thread Title: RIP First name Last Name
OP: RIP

Isn't much better than "who".

Eh, D. It's clearly trolling but not really worth modding.

I get that there are way too damn many celebrities. Hell, I don't know who they're talking about probably 85% of the time. It's mind-boggling. I swear the average person watches a movie, copies down the entire credit reel and researches every human being involved for hours apiece.

But the time to vent that frustratiom--if at all--is not when they die. That's just disrespectful and you know it as well as I do.

But that said, their friends and family don't post on effing CE so just ignore the dumb troll comment and move on lol.

How
Aren't we here to discuss things? And as many celebrities and internet celebrities as there is, it's not too much to ask for people to give something for people to discuss. As a for instance, I would have no idea who boogie1098 is if it weren't for CE's discussions about him. There's been several times people have posted deaths of people that I had no idea who they were.

Another forum I go to that has a thread dedicated to recent deaths, many posters write something about the deceased. Being that many of the posters there are older than me, it's old time actors/singers that I might not know by name. But then they'll post something about their notable works and I'll be like "oh yeah I do know who that is".

It's just shitty trolling either way. They know this, you know this. People not being obliged to post a full Wikipedia link and obituary does not in any case make them "not much better" than sad acts trying to troll over somebody dying. Stop going to bat for these people just cos they inevitably have the same political bent as you.

Nah. If people want an actual discussion then they should put some effort into their OP. No one is under the obligated to have to do research when someone else wants to discuss something but doesn't post any content to discuss.

When marked, it is modded. Trolling or offensive usually.

It serves no purpose and just antagonizes the people mourning. So yeah...

Huge C.
Also want to point that doubling down and throwing a temper tantrum about being modded in the same thread is not a good move to make. Because Ive seen this happen way too many times already >_>

Yeah, no, considering that you can get moderated for "Who". If anything you could just look it up above anything else before making a stupid post.

C, and to the people saying "it's just a genuine question" I heard that excuse too, so I made a topic about a person a few months ago. It wasn't a RIP topic but a sexual assault alligation topic. I put their job title in the topic title, things they are known for, a paragraph of back story of the drama, and the current news complete with links, sources, and quotes. I gave everything you need to know about the person and the story in the OP, and of course people came in and said "who".

It's just 100% trolling. If you actually cared you would Google it. It takes less time to Google it than to respond and wait for a response.
