The-Bozz

IT'S TIME FOR THE BRIGHTLY COLORED, ATTENTION GRABBING HEADER! YAY! READ THIS BEFORE GOING ON YOUR WAY.

Since I've been receiving some comments about my bad disposition and the disclaimer I previously had in my description, I'll leave this as a sticky just so you guys understand my point better and I don't have to repeat myself.

Normally, I am rather kind to other people. I appreciate people who want to discuss stuff in a civilized manner and love a nice chat. But SU's getting worse by the minute, filled with spam and a subpar user base (which wasn't the case not too long ago). I'll ignore, maybe thumb down, or even report and block whoever:

• Promotes his own site or product shamelessly or by illegal means such as bots or exchanges (see SU's Terms Of Service, it's clearly stated there).
• Befriends people en masse, because I take the word "friend" kind of seriously. Friend requests coming from people I haven't had any contact with, be it message exchanges or mutual subscription, will be rejected immediately. Any friend request will be thought about for a long time. I'll be checking your site often to see what kind of user you are. Sending messages urging me to accept your friend request is not recommended.
• Sends "thank you for visiting" messages. I stumbled upon your page, I didn't get there on purpose, no need to thank me. If what you want is to strike conversation, read my blog and see what I like to talk about. Easy!
• Fills his blog with glitter gifs. Go waste bandwidth somewhere else. Also OH GOD MY EYES WHY?
• Just quotes pages and doesn't write REAL comments. It's a good indicator of you being a spammer. Comments are supposed to generate dialogue and interaction, not repeating what we already read.
• Feels the need to impose his religious point of view, be it theist or atheist. Having a different perspective doesn't give you the right to be disrespectful or totally obnoxious toward other people. Respect differences.
• Submits stuff to StumbleUpon under the wrong categories. Yeah, it is that important. Do you know how much stuff about paganism or Ireland tourism do I find under "Celtic Music"? Or how many pseudoscience stuff I get under "Science/Tech"? Let's not even talk about the random crap I get under every single category available. I'll thumb down every single person who has this awful habit. DON'T-DO-IT.

Hopefully this is clear enough for most people, but just in case you don't: my patience has a hair trigger. Now enjoy the rest of my blog (or whatever, I thumb stuff up so rarely now...).
