No karma points for dicks!

Rant - No karma points for dicks!

Whats with these karma points? I've been posting my 2 cents for a couple of years now and now i can't do a damn thing! Apparently i have zero karma points. All i want to do is throw my support for some reef girls asses. And stop calling me a troll. i don't even know what that means. what kind of world is this where unless i post happy, pretty, lets all go surfing, smoke some dope posts i cant participate!? and by the way, all the stupid 4/20 posts the other day were so lame... i've said it over and over, i'm just trying to help. when all you bearded hipsters leave the beach, as most all of you will, you will be in for quite a shock when your PC, bay area ways are met by much meaner responses than mine have ever been. this is now my second time being banned from this site! i will not be silenced! i will continue to call a kook a kook! i am so disappointed with where this site has gone, nowhere. it really had some potential but it caters to kooks. kooks that like to post gay dudes washing their car! really!? a chick in a bikini at the beach = gay dude washing his junk? doesn't bother me except that it just doesn't belong. this is a surfing site, and surfing is mostly dudes, mostly straight dudes, and some chicks and chicks wear bikinis. a chick in a bikini is quite a normal thing to post here. a gay dude washing his junk is not. thats it. this karma points thing is like a kook bubble. you all think you are free and happy and so stoked to be here in SF surfing the beach and "lindy" and "the bo". and Mr. Stokereport is protecting you from all the big bad locals and trolls and dicks and just plain unstoked surfers out there. i'm really disappointed in this whole thing. the karma points thing is weeding out generally well meaning people who read some of these ridiculous posts and want to throw in a touch of reality, sure maybe in a slap in the face way but reality. the world can be a mean place, a beautiful special awesome wave-filled place, but mean too. hope i didn't make anyone cry but i just want to be able to play with you all.

You get my vote, I've missed the overit contingent and you've used RANT super appropriately.

why do you want to play with a bunch of kooks? this site is based upon the premise that postings should be filtered out based upon people's opinions of the postings. call it community values or censorship, I think it's lame and I wish it wasn't like that. I think it provides a really skewed perception of the entire local surfing community and thus I by and large do not participate. By I do accept that that is what this site is and does. I do use the site to serve my own purposes, understanding and accepting the site as it is. you could dedicate yourself to fighting a clearly uphill battle against a site whose premise you clearly don't agree with or you could just accept it and move on. in general, it seems you might benefit from a little more acceptance in your life, as is demonstrated by your aversion to a photo displaying a body part you clearly possess that some people happen to like and want to view and share, both men and women. just a thought. and i guess i now need to change my moniker to justthistwice.

i just saw that wastebasket thing. that's kinda cool. mr. stokereport should keep all the things this community throws away there. and link to it obviously on the homepage. so we can all see what you hate and disregard. that would be cool. justthisthrice.

@justthisonce: well said. out of curiosity, when you say you use this site for your own purposes. what are they?

> mr. stokereport should keep all the things this community throws away there [wastebasket].

yep. that's what it does. i link to it from the footer to be transparent about what the community has voted down. it isn't more prominent as it isn't intended to be a wall of shame.

grumple: what do you think i use it for? to get information about conditions. information that i don't even really think should be shared in this way, but if the info is out there, i'm gonna use it.
stokereport: the only thing in there is cbrody's reef t and a thing. but i also recognize that sometimes stuff ends up there b/c it contains information about spots and conditions that i don't actually think should be kept around. i just think expressions of dissent are dangerous for a community to filter out. the community excludes them because they don't want to hear from people who disagree with them and then they don't know even know the other side of the argument anymore. it's part of the bigger problems facing our country too. we are all consuming only the information we agree with and getting farther and farther away from understanding one another. i actually love it that you guys filter out tits and ass because i find it somewhat offensive as feminist, but i think there should be a way to see what you are censoring. i don't know. i need to get back to work. urg. justfourtimes. i guess i was bound to get sucked in.

So brave. You're like the Oscar Romero of Stokereport in your stalwart commitment to being a condescending, tone-deaf meathead.

I think most people come for the community and rants, rather than conditions info. So yea, I was curious.

If I understand correctly, your gripe is that you have been told your views are not welcome here, yet you feel comfortable personally dictating what content belongs or does not belong. This is a democracy of karma points (votes).

And I think Mr. Spock has trouble with your logic...chicks in bikinis are welcome...gay dudes are not...in San Francisco. Most of the year, you are FAAAAAAR more likely to find a "gay dude" at our beaches than chicks in bikinis (last weekend notwithstanding).

If you can find more like-minded folks around here, you can run the show.

STOKERS have a choice to view and create whatever rants they choose to. If you don't want to view or read a rant about Reef Girls than don't open it and don't read it. Just say NO to censorship. If you don't want to see....don't look. In fact just turn off your computer all together. my two cents........
