Bree Giffen Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Hey all, let's post our potentially unpopular opinions! What could go wrong? Anyways, my opinion is that there are too many beautiful avatars and it dilutes the beauty in SL. I think most people need to make themselves more plain looking or ugly so that my avatar will be the fairest of all. 🥴 1 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
So Whimsy Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 I think they're far too many postcount++ games in the General Discussion forum and they should have a forum section of their own. 11 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can also be fun, and not just a way to boost post count. But yeah, there are a lot of them. And you guys don’t want to know my unpopular opinions. They are sure to be VERY unpopular. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beth Macbain Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 I think this thread is dangerous and asking for trouble. I don't know if that's a popular or unpopular opinion, though. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amina Sopwith Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Haha. Ah hahahaha. Ahahahahaha. I'd answer this, but I died on a hill in that particular event horizon and I'm pretty sure a couple of people are dancing on my grave even as I type. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how you came to that conclusion unless you're telepathic or people have confessed. I never keep count of what I post or what 'points' I get for it; I just post what I like and play what I enjoy. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like people post in the vanity and how does your avatar look like today threads for reputation. Of course there's always exceptions to the rule, and you may be one but the vast majority does it for gains. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While they definitely do accomplish boosting ones post count, I think only a few are really using them for that purpose. I think they were created just to give people things to do here in the forums when other threads are not getting much activity and most people continue to post in them for that reason. Just something silly for folks to do to while away the time until some other topic comes up that interests them. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think those show-off threads are more about getting likes for vanity sake rather than for forum rep -- at least for most people. Even if there were no forum reputation points, many of the people posting in that thread would continue to do it just for the attention. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selene Gregoire Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 The vast majority of people already hate me without really knowing anything about me. I have no desire to increase the amount of animosity I already encounter on the forum. Especially from the one person who likes to hound people until they either leave or that person gets themselves banned. It's happened before. It will happen again. I refuse to ever have to deal with that bullcrap again. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaser Zaks Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 (edited) Probably unpopular opinion: I think LL should ban political threads from general, as in amending the rules to say "No politic centered threads". Not politics entirely, just political threads. Specifically just General because Events/Looking for/etc could be used to find people with like minded opinions, which I think is perfectly fine. General threads regarding it tends to just invite fighting/bickering. They always just seem to divide the community IMO, and I don't want to see the community divided.

Beth Macbain Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 I think there should be a section of the forum that is anything goes. Politics, religion, whatever... just have at it. It'd be a dumpster fire, but at least it would be contained. 6 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's probably true that people enjoy the affirmation that comes from seeing people "like" their appearance or pic-taking abilities. That's pretty natural, but it is still secondary to posting the pics. I can't imagine anyone is going to the hassle of taking and posting photos for the express purpose of merely boosting reputation points. Why would anyone care about those per se? They contribute absolutely nothing. I don't even notice them, tbh (although I will occasionally look at post count).
