Individual reaction gifs, and nothing else.

Albums or "packs" of related gifs may only be submitted by a moderator. If you would like to become a mod to (among other things) help create & maintain official packs, message us.

A reaction gif is a physical or emotional response that is captured in a gif which you can link in response to someone or something on the Internet. Read this for more information.

Link directly to the GIF and please use a reliable host such as:

Your gif must actually contain some sort of reaction.

If you resubmit anything in the Top 100 of all time it will be removed.

When my post almost instantly goes to 0 karma score, never to see the light of day. (i.imgur.com)

And if you complain about it you're berated for being a karma whore. I don't give a shit about my karma score. You could reset it to zero right now and I wouldn't bat an eye. The part that pisses me off is when a couple of dickbags who probably didn't even read past your first sentence are able to effectively remove your researched, sourced and cogent post from the discussion entirely by downvoting it under the threshold of what anyone is going to read.

Karma slut shaming. A terrible thing.

[–]anagramgoeshere 7 points8 points ago

Happens every single time. I don't even bother submitting new content any more because of it. There's no point in typing several paragraphs which will never be seen for a community that prizes titties and pictures of cats.

Oh and by "community" I meant "content aggregator". Important distinction to be made there.

[–]Andro30 3 points4 points ago

You just need the right subreddit for paragraphs. This is more for instant gratification.

[–]thedarklordkyp 0 points1 point ago

Me neither, but in reddit's defense, I fucking suck at titles and at being original.

[–]filthyneckbeard[S] 1 point2 points ago

Yeah, it's tricky. Time of submitting has a huge effect too.

[–]yroc12345 6 points7 points ago

When people downvote a self post in a discussion board, it pisses me the fuck off. I spent a long time typing that up and you just buried it before it got a chance to see the light of day because you disagree.

I'm looking at you /r/truegaming

[–]filthyneckbeard[S] 9 points10 points ago

I appreciate the first people who saw this not ironically burying it, by the way. Thanks guys.

[–]HardtoReadIlIllIlllI 2 points3 points ago

This is what somebody posted on r/funny and how much karma they got. This is a comment I posted and how much karma I didn't get.

[–]TheCultist 1 point2 points ago

One of my favourite gifs ;)

[–]Biche13 0 points1 point ago

As this has recently happened to me, I can safely say this was my exact reaction. I didn't even know my arms could do that.

[–]HardtoReadIlIllIlllI 1 point2 points ago

This is what somebody posted and notice how much karma they got. This is the exact same quote I posted 6 days earlier, and notice how much karma I didnt get. I feel your pain.
