"Waahh no one posts on my intellectual topics"
A common recurring thread around here is someone complaining that people only post on shitposts while ignoring anything intellectual. They usually go on to cry how this is evidence that their generation is shit and the world is doomed or something.
If you find yourself about to make one of these threads, consider the following:
If long, thoughtful posts were ignored around here, then no one would give a shit about Recon, but most everyone loves the guy. I've very rarely seen him post the kind of inane garbage you're crying about, and in fact he usually posts thoughtful things.
To your undeveloped 13 year old brain, I'm sure that whatever shit you posted really did seem like a major breakthrough, some huge revelation. But to everyone else, it's just some Jayden Smith-tier faux intellectual "deep thinking" that usually consists of "Wow, humanity is just so awful. Let's not do war anymore. What's wrong with people?" The "revelations" you have are things that literally every single person thought when they were 13, and every single person also thought they were some revolutionary when they thought it.
So consider the possibility that the problem isn't that you're just too smart for everyone here, but that you're just not as smart as you think you are and therefore no one cares about your ideas.

8 RepliesEdited by AnAverageGamer: 3/12/2015 8:30:44 PMNo offense to Recon, but I think his popularity here is due, at least in part, to both the fact he's a mod and that he's been here actively for 10+ years. The guy is an awesome poster, I won't deny that, but I think part of the reason he gets so much attention is the "Ninja" next to his name. I would say the larger reason that intellectual posts are ignored here is that there are tons of kids here who could not care less to discuss something intelligently. That's why you have role-playing "bars", "master chief vs WWII Russia vs Batman w/ prep", "I'm grill AMA", and "gurll advis pls" threads getting the most responses. Gotta know your audience before you try and discuss things with them.
