The " + 1" Army

[AaronMB]

-1 and your post is a mess to read by the way, -2.

+1

messy...maybe. it was designed that way. im trying to paint a picture here and take the reader on a journey. my frantic, "mess to read" style is meant to challenge the reader, and by the end youre supposed to feel frustrated and spent...as if youve been scrolling all afternoon. .. +1 to the guy in the suggestive red tee shirt.

If that's the case, I suggest that you attempt to kill two birds, and should also combine the need for us....

But what's your lines scrolled per flick?

 

[Epitaph04]

Think of the "+1" as an internet golf clap, or an encouraging nod of the head towards your general direction.

i usually give my screen a medium-light flick. i play active basses, so i have a light touch.for example, one flick just got me through aaron and epitaph's last posts.

You need a macbook, the trackpad is such a beauty to flick with you will actually enjoy it.

Sometimes there's nothing to add. It doesn't prevent me from giving my opinion in a short way.

Are you using a mouse with a roller thing on it?

Ohhhhhhh! Well then you have every right to complain.

+1 to your original post.

It does kind of explain the mess, lack of capitalization and some other things. However, I wouldn't go as far as "+1'ing" his original post.

Maybe -1.75 instead of -2.

 

[Munjibunga]

When I have a "+1", I make the effort to say something like, "Right on, Bro," or "Amen, Brother." Then I don't have to listen to complaints about "+1."

 

[CalboDaGo]

you guys need to understand what makes this thread a win/win, my "gift" to members present and future. for one, people will read this and realize " calbo is right, ive spent the last 12 hours working on modes, scales, and arguing other talkbass members down about why my p bass with flats is so superior to a jazz bass with rounds..my fingers are fatigued." now, maybe people wont drag a giant post just to say +1, thus sparing everyones fingers after a long day (your welcomed).

 

[4dog]

No fun flamin someone who asks for it,not that i would personally do that anyway.
+1

 

[CalboDaGo]

secondly, i dont believe a thread quite like this has EVER been started. all you who replied are now a part of history..youre all innovators. this thread will go viral and its all because of you. the +1 army

 

[cjmodulus]

+ 2. I'm an innovator.

 

[TolerancEJ]

+I (Roman numeral 1) Did you really think you could begin this thread without receiving a "+1"?

 

[Passinwind]

This really grinds thee ole gears. Someone (typically the OP), may make a veeeery long-winded post, which is cool. I enjoy a good read just as much as the next guy, but my issue is, why do some of you copy that ENTIRE post, paste it back in the thread, and follow it with a lazy " +1 "?

Sir / ma'am...are you serious? It just took me 17 finger flicks to scroll though that original post; now I've scrolled though it AGAIN on account of YOU, and I'll probably have to scroll though it 12 more times during the first two pages of any given thread, and you have nothing more to offer than " + 1"?

YOU members...YOU who engage in this type of behavior are who i refer to as the "+1 Army", YOU who owe TB so much more than a +1...you who will +1 my statement as if to say "yer right on calbo, but +1." Your statement is lacking something vital..so i'll add 1 to it, but i wont share what it is". That felt GOOD.

Mods, I wasn't sure if this belonged in the off-topic section or the technique section perhaps? Please feel free to move it or sticky it...and why do guys always tell mods to move something? Lmao!

*My mod voice*: "thank you for your permission BedroomBass6969, I would have never known to do that without your direction"

Why do they call those things smart phones anyhow?

 

[CalboDaGo]

again, people are misunderstanding my original post. im saying +1 is awesome, i get it.. my issue is that i think it is overkill to copy and paste a gigantic post, only to add +1 at the end. does this make sense? if i just read and scrolled through a 15 minute rant by BasementBassist69, why does some guy come behind him and repost his entire rant? why not take a segment of it, or simply type " +1 @ BasmentBassist69"? you know, keep the thread grooving.
