Well, your ratio of positive to negative is slightly higher, maybe that's what he means?

This of course begs the question, what is more important? The quantity of good and bad, or the ratio of good to bad?

They say any publicity is good publicity.

Wait... no it's not.

Mongrel +30/-20
Classic +15/-6

Classic has less negative Karma AND a better positive to negative ratio (as of this post, mine's exactly 3:2, his is a little worse than 3:1).

True, I have more positive Karma in total, but considering I post way more, that's not really a useful stat in this case.

Anyway, I just wanted to make a joke about Classic having a really bad idea. Is BAD AT MATH some kind of contagious disease that Classic is spreading around? Shit! Hand sanitizer! I need hand sanitizer!

I was always kinda bad at basic math, and now I'm bad at advanced math, too, since I haven't used it for a decade or so.

Oh come on. If you've ever played MTG, Pokemon or WoW, you ought to have some familiarity with ratios, probability and averages.

How often do you check someone else's karma buge? If it's ever, it's probably too much.

However appropriate Master Roshi is to my temperament, Dragonball Z screenshots are not only frighteningly low-rent, they are also terribly boring.

I double dog dare y'all to come up with something more interesting... cause otherwise I'm just gonna switch back to the Pied Piper.

Cthulhu-chan · « **Reply #1250 on:** May 28, 2010, 06:06:52 AM »

Well, I would but they'd all be Roshi being a perv.

I am all in favour getting rid of things that are low-rent and terribly boring, Mongrel.

Mongrel · « **Reply #1252 on:** May 28, 2010, 06:53:43 AM »

Ugh! M Bison!

How passé!

Mongrel I don't think you realize how much more tolerable and respectable that avatar makes you.

You're right. I have no idea how this makes things all much different, seeing as how Iim still flapping the keyboard with the same flippers... unless animated pied piper man was giving you ~~PTSD~~ ~~epiliepsy~~ dyspepsia?

Never mind, it'll all come out in the wash. Have some cherries jubilee.

Mothra · « **Reply #1256 on:** May 28, 2010, 06:31:52 PM »

I dunno Mogrel just pick something that you like and use it as an avatar. Basically you can plug any interest you have into deviantart, sift through maybe five pages of sonic the hedgehog pornography, and find an honest to god amazing piece of artwork for your avatar.

Just really, really make an effort to pick something that does not make people immediately want to internet punch you in the dick, as is often the case with the avatars you choose I notice.

I mean I understand how ridiculous this must sound and how arbitrary avatars very much are, but the fact remains that at a glance, when I see you as one of those fucks from DBZ that constituted 90% of the filler it makes me not a happy camper. Not giving off this impression is an important thing.

It has to do with that messy web of associations folk have that determine that PIVOTAL immediate opinion/feeling you get on something.

Mongrel · « **Reply #1257 on:** May 28, 2010, 06:36:42 PM »

I used to have ponderous avatars all the time, but I felt I was taking myself far too seriously. And folks, if I can't even take myself seriously, I don't see why any of you should.

I am honestly fucking bewildered as to how people can be fine with stuff like teg or niku's sig but rage at my previous avatar*. Or that anybody would really let stuff that dumb and irrelevent bother them that much at all for that matter.

Also Kabbage, FYI: The last three avatars I had before the Piper were all chosen for me by other people and I just rolled with it because I liked the pics. And Frocto was the one who changed my avatar to Master Roshi.

*_{This ain't a complaint about those sigs. I like'em just fine.}

EDIT: Which Doom seems to love, but you seem to hate. If anything demonstrates the futility of trying to please others with one's avatar choices, I guess that's it.

Doom · « **Reply #1258 on:** May 28, 2010, 06:49:00 PM »

Kabbage just revealed his absolute depth of ignorance about Master Roshi so it's not like you should really care about his opinion.

Dragon Ball as a universe jumped the shark after the Jackie Chun vs Young Goku fight, basically.

Mongrel · « **Reply #1259 on:** May 28, 2010, 06:49:45 PM »

He's also drunk right now, apparently. Soooo....
