also this whole concept of 'leveling' is really stupid and annoying

No [censored], this is far and away my most hated 2+2ism. Why did we need to invent a whole series of words that just mean "deadpan sarcasm"

[/ QUOTE ]

You could use the word "trolling", but then you'd each owe me 5 cent (US) each time you used it.
I invented "trolling" and thus trademarked its use on the World Wide Web.

You know it just occurred to me we are discussing two different things. You are against the actual posts which "level" ie mislead or are smart assed where as I am against the post which literally say thing like "level??" or "LOLevel" and so on.

haha, I was just thinking after once again reading a "level?" post that is the one thing I really can't stand about these forums. I'm sure I don't understand it entirely but it appears to be nothing more than either another term for "are you being sarcastic" which I guess means either the person posting sucks at sarcasm or you (the person making the level post) suck at understanding sarcasm either way just say, hey you suck at sarcasm or be quiet about not getting sarcasm. Or its just a lazy and unoriginal way to say you disagree with a post, or think its dumb. Again just post that instead of using the same god damned punchline again and again at least in the sports forum please.

I love leveling as much as the next guy

WTF does that mean? Do you even know or are you just to scared to go against the popular the trend and flat out say it sucks? If the next guy is me I assure you I do not love leveling.

it's appropriate in BBV4life, maybe in OOT. sometimes it's okay in POG. It sucks in ATF, Beginers, and strategy forums where people are looking for a legitimate answer

If people allow themselves to get leveled by the oh so highbrow humor in most of these threads, they're too dumb to be of much value to 2p2 in the first place.

got me

[SmokeyRidesAgain]

I always feel really dumb after I make a leveling/completely useless/semi abusive post and realise I was browsing the beginners forum, and I'm just being an ass.

[stabn]

I agree. Unfortunately i was away this weekend and wasn't able to police the leveling as much as i normally do.
