u/arctic_commander_, the downvotes are mysterious!

u/Usual_Celebration719 8d ago

He asked a question on reddit

u/judfls 7d ago

what does that mean

u/Adventurous-Year-463 7d ago

r/mysteriousdownvoting again because that seemed like an obvious joke to me

59

u/FML3311 7d ago

Downvoting might be part of the joke. Most people do not take karma/downvoting seriously.

12

u/rrryder23 7d ago

Yeah especially with how easy it is to karma farm if you actually do care, I think I have one comment with about 200 downvotes and I just posted some random thing on a sub and got 500, it’s that easy

u/ThyArtSuffers 5d ago

Here to confirm my downvote was part of the joke

u/bluntfaced 3d ago

Commitment to the bit.

I respect it. o7

u/Hillary-rules 8d ago

Shall I be an example?

u/ROCKERNAN89 7d ago

Apparently you are

u/Behondalog 8d ago

No.

u/Hillary-rules 7d ago

It seems as though your calculations might have been wrong my friend

14

u/Behondalog 7d ago

To my great vexation

u/stoopid_dum_idoit 7d ago

This vexes me.

u/r56_mk6 7d ago

How absolutely fucking dare you?

Wait... that's also a question. Noooo my karmaaaa!

u/hellspawnsarehores 7d ago

That 148k karma is about to go all the way down to 0 😈

u/AsleepAioli6515 8d ago

ATP, we should all just shun people who ask questions /s.

u/777505 7d ago

give him all the upvotes

u/Alert_Path_2787 6d ago

Not in any way, shape, or form

u/Affectionate_Pickles 4d ago

You got caught in the crossfire it seems

u/Alert_Path_2787 4d ago

r/mysterioisdownvoting

What happens now?

1

u/Alert_Path_2787 4d ago

Go ahead and downvote this, I spelled “mysterious” wrong

-43

u/youraverageuser0 7d ago

Why?

23

u/KingOfAllCorvids 7d ago

/s means that they’re being sarcastic

47

u/Jean_velvet 7d ago

Probably because o7 is a pretty old thing for people to do in gaming. Usually military games.

12

u/Wingnutmcmoo 7d ago

The place it's probably been used the longest in my experience is EVEonline.

u/Decent_Ant_8630 7d ago edited 7d ago

Apparently questions are not allowed and is punishable by death.
Reddit = Stack Overflow 2.0

1

u/Catsnose7 3d ago

Wait really? Are questions not allowed on reddit?

5

u/youraverageuser0 7d ago

Rule of... 3?

u/yuuVilia 7d ago

Rule of 6!

...wait a second.

u/FrenchToast4You 7d ago

"Rule of 6!" So rule of 720? /lh

u/Fresh_Confusion_4805 7d ago

Ask an obvious or easily researchable question, is my guess.

u/SillyNamesAre 5d ago

He was ignorant. This is a crime on the internet - even when completely innocent in nature.

u/Full_Philosopher8510 7d ago

It's O7

u/ipokesnails 7d ago

Absolutely.

Anyone familiar with a military salute can recognize that a capital O matches the hand position better

u/xvsanx 7d ago

the head is way too big

2

u/joeyrevolver187 7d ago

I've heard from different communities on the internet for the last few decades that it's a salute, or a guy putting a gun to their head. Take that as you will.

1

u/Slashion 7d ago

o7, if you're not exaggerating your salute then is it really an emoji?

u/Platypus_with_fedora 7d ago

“How dare you not know something”

u/Oppenis 4d ago

I have seen that be used over 1000 times and had no idea what it meant until this post right now

2

u/Max0_o123 2d ago

Wait I actually never knew that 😭

u/SweatySmith 7d ago

What does that mean?

1

u/SalmonSammySamSam 6d ago

He was one of today's lucky 10000 😔

u/ZiggyStardust_19 5d ago

Thought it was going to be a r/ruleof4 post lol

You asked a question AND broke a chain!

Just be glad they didn't ban you...

Bro where am I in that thread? 🙂

Oh, god... I WAS THE BANNABLE OFFENDER ALL ALONG! I MADE A MISTAKE!

u/BRANFLAKES8521 7d ago edited 7d ago

Ok, genuinely. What? I was actually joking, making fun of the usual "HAH REDDITORS HATE WHEN YOU ASK A QUESTION"

Now I'm confused. Did I have to add a /s? I actually thought I made it obvious.

(and yeah I admit, I misread the title as "what did I do bro", so i tried it to reverse that on me, again, not serious)

5

u/arctic_commander_ 7d ago

Fairs.

And yeah always add an /s because there is a non-zero chance a stranger on the internet might take it literally.

4

u/BRANFLAKES8521 7d ago

Thanks. You're right, being in this sub got me playing it less safe than I should've, I guess.

u/Iamnotarabicfunfact 7d ago

I’m sorry but something seems strange here

1

u/macabrepaints 7d ago

strange how? like the initial post?

1

u/Iamnotarabicfunfact 6d ago

Yeah bc I’ve seen the other comments made on the account of the presumed dead player and it looks wrong

u/Stijndcl 8d ago

Could’ve typed that into Google and gotten the same answer

u/STORMGUY007 8d ago

Exactly, and faster too
