The DU topic that keeps on train wrecking.
Some advice:

if you start a thread regarding the unrec function, be prepared for it to be massively unrec'd.

If you whine why one of your own threads didn't just make us all squirm with delight, then be prepared to be unrec'd.

If you come across with an attempt to sound reasonable regarding the unrecing of one of your posts, be prepared to be unrec'd.

If you shout, "I'M BEING SILENCED", be prepared to be unrec'd.

If you feign ignorance as to why your post was unrec'd, be prepared to be unrec'd

And lastly...

If you start a thread regarding unrec, be prepared to be unrec'd, flamed mercilessly, and alerted to the mods as being a freep, troll, moron, in need of a pizza, etc.

Just a few of the simple facts of posting about the unrec function.

With that said, please unrec this thread with all the might and power of DU!!!

Cheers! :)

14. Usually I don't even bother opening them up, but
I think I may start giving them the unrec finger as well


Ego trips...that's all they are.

8. As you desire ...
I shall unrec this thread.

I shall flame you thusly: "Only a brain dead assclown would compose a thread of this nature! Begone, you nattering nabob of negativism!"

Alerting the mods ... check, for I definitely need a pizza. Mellow Mushroom, of course. House special. Please get it here within 30 minutes. Thank you.


Ahhhhh ... at last I get to enjoy oppressing someone. Hey! That felt good! Must find others to oppress!

:evilgrin:

It's mighty presumptuous of you to expect an unrec.

16. It seems like the novelty has worn off.
Just scanned the GD first page and the unrec symbol under the rec column is non-existent.

19. Fortunately, tempests in teapots are a popular but short-lived phenomena.
Kind of like expensive toys for cats that soon give way to the much more challenging bit of string or "how to annoy the humans" games.
