People hate labels before the individual so much of the 9gag hate might actually belong to their userbase. Why hate the userbase? Again there is a simple rule for that which is related to the Law of Popularity Backlash: Userbases grow in annoyance and stupidity parallel to their size through sheer mathematics larger pools of anything will have a larger percentage of stupid.
Even without knowing much about 9gag I find myself in agreement with both Jolly and Connor. I agree with Jolly that the main reasons expressed for hating 9gag seem weak. The comments on banners and poor jokes sound like nitpicking. I agree with Connor that there is a stronger reason to just not give a fuck. What I can understand is that when kids go around giving 9gag credit for the things they find on the internet, that can get very, very annoying for the people who know better.
If someone found Nyan Cat and said "this was on 9gag! When you create some OC, normally you don't use a "Watermark" or something that says "hey i made it". And it kills OC. If you post something on Reddit, and someone posts this from Reddit on 9gag, it gets a Watermark. When now someone sees the Watermark, he thinks it was made there, even if it is from Reddit.
This is something i made. Do you see a watermark? Thats a good question. I don't see a reason to "watermark" something. But that just the beginning. Have you ever read the Comments? This is one of the reasons why i am avoiding 9gag now. When i was the first time on 9gag, it was funny. Nothing special, like only k likes on FB. But, the more popular it got the more cancerous it got.
All sites go through their ups and downs. Right now 9gag is on a roller coaster that is about to go mph into a huge pile of shit. Plus it's more personal preference.
Some people hate it, some people like it. Yeah, they're dumb for putting watermarks, but that's their business. Not ours. People talk shit about 9gag everywhere. You are expected to hate 9gag without even knowing anything about the site. When I see an article on KYM that reads "9gag" in the origin, whether this is true or not, one of the first comments is sure to say "Deadpool" for the simple fact that the article reads "9gag".
That's not an argument, that's an excuse. This then leads to the above image that some also just spout hate for attention whoring. They might be completely neutral about it, but they just say they hate it to go with the group. Disliking something is ok, but at least bring some good arguments and don't do it for the attention. But in the end, it's what Kalmo said. Their problems aren't yours.
By using this site, you are agreeing by the site's terms of use and privacy policy and DMCA policy. No thanks, take me back to the meme zone!
Previous 1 2 Next. So what's wrong with it then? There are 3 huge reasons. Nonetheless, I'd like to counter your arguments. It's good to see you're aware of the flaws in your arguments.
For myself, it really is what drpepperfan says. They really ARE the ebaums' world of today. Very weak argument. Chris "12 year olds" That argument is very old. Damn, mods arguing about a website? Dis gon' be good. RandomMan wrote: I have no problem with 9gag. Everyone on the internet is 12, thus my point is proven. Chris I'm gonna tell my mommy someone's being mean to me on the internet. Connor I totally agree with you.
Jolly Jew wrote: im not sure the are stealing. Yeah, actually, you see this just as often with Reddit as you do with 9gag. But that's because both of them have really retarded userbases. It's as if someone were to walk up to your property and say "Hey, this is mine now. Edit: Wow… that watermark… oh the irony. Chris wrote: Putting a watermark on an image in itself is basically saying that one has control of the image even if in reality one was not the creator of the original image.

The reason for this? I dunno. Let it be jealousy, hatred, confusion. There's probably something. I'm quite the bandwagon jumper myself, no idea why, but here's my train of thought and I hope someone else can confirm they have somewhat of a similar experience - I enjoy browsing through KYM ritually and mindlessly - I see some photos with the 9gag watermark and some articles that have the reference "9gag", and really not really care at first - see several other people talk about how much they hate the watermark and articles that reference 9gag e.
I agree with all the agreeing that's being agreed upon in this agreement. What are we talking about? Maybe because it sucks? Mainly the fact that they steal shit, then slap their own watermark on it. Also, it's horribly unfunny. But, you know, humor is… Subjective. People can laugh at the same things that people hate. That's why I'm expecting at least 5 Jack and Jill sequels. Here are my reasons why I hate 9gag 1. Not these images, these are just plain terrible Finally, I did not know they did not give credit to the creators of the original image, and just piggy backed off the success of others.

So the sides cancel out. If FunnyJunk hates 9gag Then why do most people who view the reposts from there know it was on 9gag before FunnyJunk? If people try to kill scientists with dynamite instead of a prayer Aren't they demonstrating how much more effective science is? The government says "If you're not doing anything wrong, you shouldn't have anything to hide. If a redhead works at a bakery Does that make him a ginger bread man? If a 17 year old uses instagram to take a nude pic Now Viewing:.
Per page: 20 10 20 40 60 80 I'm torn, as well. Then I remember that every other post on the Hot page of 9gag isn't a stupid "Waaaaah" post about another website. I do really enjoy using 9gag, but I do have to agree. But, you can't just not notice all of the content posted originally on 9gag being posted on Funnyjunk. Things as stupid as this sometimes get on the frontpage of funnyjunk though :' I just think funnyjunk is awesome because the comments are ing hillarious, it's very rare that any content makes me laugh, but I'm sometimes in stitches over the comments section :p.
When did we say that we don't post rage comics? We do all the ing time. We just post ones that are actually funny, not ones that are about some dumb who thinks she's fat.
