Why I do not like you on StumbleUpon
Posted by Brendon on June 18th, 2009 | 0 comments
StumbleUpon is one of the best sites on the Internet, in my opinion. But, this is why I do not like you (in no particular order):
- You thumb down a page and write a bad review based on your ignorance.
- You thumb up a page and write a good review based on your ignorance.
- You thumb up a page because you a humoured by the SU user’s criticisms.
- You criticize a user for submitting duplicate content, as if he committed murder.
- You keep sending me to your blog (outside of my interests) because you “really need” the popularity this week.
- You never stumble; your recent reviews are all from the same site (yours!).
- You only stumble; you never write any reviews.
- I send you a page, and you send me a one back and plead that I give it a thumbs up; it’s not a traffic exchange!
- You state the obvious.
- You never say anything interesting; just “cool”, “sweet” and “wow”. (It’s fine in moderation)
- Your quotes are too large.
- You only quote.
- You thumb up and review software or services because “they look good”.
- You tag too little.
- Your tags are irrelevant.
- Your review is nothing to do with the page.
- You have 2,000 favourites, but 3 reviews.
- You are an optimist.
- You are a pessimist.
- You have no sense of humour.
- Your profile sucks.
- Your avatar sucks.
- You use too many superlatives.
- You are pretentious.
- You (only) point out flaws in others.
- You apply logic in places where logic in not needed.
- You don’t apply logic in places where logic is needed.
- You think you are better than everyone else.
- You spend too much time on SU.
- You thumb everything up.
- You thumb everything down.
- You keep sending me to your blog (outside of my interests) because you “really need” the popularity this week.
- I send you a page, and you send me a one back and plead that I give it a thumbs up; it’s not a traffic exchange!
