Stop doing that. This isn't youtube, facebook, reddit, etc. This is an internet forum with no place for useless +1 posts. Nobody cares if you like a post and nobody is keeping count.
I doubt English is his first language because he used wrong words along with misspelling.

And
this is why he prefers 4chan over reddit. He doesn't see that people feel that it's necessary to back something up, yet may not have much more to say. In fact, what would be useful is a "thanks" or "I agree" button on each post. That would satisfy people's innate need to agree, without cluttering things or winding up NaturalViolence.

I see +1 posts as a 'This' post (yeah, like the ones from ExtremeDude2
)
Like, when you totally agree with avarything that was said and would've said basically the same thing it if the post wasnt already there when you came.

When did I ever give anyone that impression? I browse both on at least a weekly basis (usually around once every other day or so) but rarely ever post on either. They are both shitty in their own ways. I browse 4chan to laugh and I browse reddit to keep up with the news and occasionally find interesting things that I wouldn't have otherwise know about. I don't browse any of those shitty meme filled subreddits where people post endless slight variations of the same thing and circlejerk each other thus guaranteeing that everything they do quickly becomes as unfunny as humanly possible (I'm looking at you /r/gaming). On both sites I rarely read the comments in threads unless it looks really really interesting because most of them have nothing meaningful or relevant to say. And on both sites at least 90% of the threads are not worth even looking at even on the "good" boards/subreddits.

That's the same thing as a +1, a like, a thumbs up, an upvote or whatever else you want to call it.

That's utterly stupid. It may be the truth for a lot of people, but that doesn't make it any less stupid.

That last part is very important for the survival of any forum.
I don't mean to be offensive AnimalBear, but I don't think you really know what you're talking about. It doesn't help that I cant make heads or tails of what you're trying to complain about either. At any rate, given the amount of recent off-topicness and the fact that most of the relevant info was discussed two years ago, I think we can say this thread has served its purpose.
