POUET THUMBING SUGGESTION

category: general [glöplog]
haha, and it seems I posted from my wife's account. The single comment on pouet I have been quite happy with, and I faaaail. :D

This just underlines the point further: she created this account so that she could thumb up stargazer and thumb down an old slideshow we made back then. So there you go: thumbs arent worth dick -- who would ever thumb down our beloved slideshow had it not been for personal grudge ;)

hyde, i do now know where you got that quote from, but the fact that it is drained with difficult language but clearly shows that the author does not even know what "positivism" means makes me doubt the source.

i know this is off topic, but srsly, if you don't know what difficult words mean, don't use them. it makes you look like a moron.

Pos"i*tiv*ism\, n. A system of philosophy originated by M. Auguste Comte, which deals only with positives. It excludes from philosophy everything but the natural phenomena or properties of knowable things, together with their invariable relations of coexistence and succession, as occurring in time and space. Such relations are denominated laws, which are to be discovered by observation, experiment, and comparison. This philosophy holds all inquiry into causes, both efficient and final, to be useless and unprofitable.

Holy crap.

I like to read the Pouet comments, because mostly they make me laugh. "A matter of taste" expresses it best. I quite often dislike what herds of others seem to like. And that's good this way, because everyone can freely tell his opinion here in words and/or thumbs or pigfaces.

Whinning about other people having different opinions is just lame and when the "party feeling" is still warm I don't see anything wrong in thumbing up a production that made one feel good while seeing it on the bigscreen. Simple as that.

We have decided it is needed and the pouet admins are responsible to make it happen.

how 'bout this for the thumbing system:

when there are more thumbs up than down (or more down than up) just fill the smaller part up so that both numbers are even.

thus prevents oh-so-biased-pouet-thumbing from influencing oh-so-inbred-scene.org-awards - and it gives you this warm cozy feeling in your pants like if you just shat yourself.

@Skrebbel&Havoc
a word can have more than one meaning you know. Let's take a look at Websters for a moment.

Quote:

pos·i·tiv·ism\,n

1 a: a theory that theology and metaphysics are earlier imperfect modes of knowledge and that positive knowledge is based on natural phenomena and their properties and relations as verified by the empirical sciences
b: logical positivism

2: the quality or state of being positive
