"The sweet candy like gum to make the flour and water.

The delicious taste of the grape than it looks.

Preservatives and dangerous coloring is not used.

"Nerunerunerune" snacks that are sold in Japan.

In Japan, recognize that intellectual candy"

That is one of the most pretentious, exaggerated comments I have ever had the misfortune to read. That guy needs to get over himself. Nobody is going to diminish the quality of Reddit's kitten, puppy, and weed posts. Because let's face it- That is really 99% of "original content" on Reddit. EVERYTHING else is a repost.

[–]UberMouse894 6 points7 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I agree with what he says. I just do not agree with people complaining about reposts of 6-10month old content. This picture has been posted 5 times in the past 2 days in 3 subreddits (Twice here including this post) though, which is within the limit of which I believe it's fair to complain.

[–]darwinsaves 5 points6 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Then you don't agree with what he says, essentially. He is saying all reposts are bad, and that there isn't an excuse for it (hence his "new to me", flawed logic). I'm not even slippery-sloping it- that's what he says, while condemning all reposts. The reason it is flawed is that nobody will randomly check Reddit archives or stay on Reddit 24 hrs a day, 7 days a week (though some people joke about using hyperbole). You are bound to miss stuff. That is why we have a voting system. And if you are fine with a 6-10 month old post getting a second look once in a while, you are in disagreement with our fellow Mr. Elitist Redditor.

The fact is, a literal majority of posts on Reddit have originated somewhere else. The few that don't get reposted. Who cares? Again, that is why we have a voting system.

If your argument is "too much reposting" is bad, I'd agree.

[–]poo_22 1 point2 points ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

How would you feel if the front page was exclusively stuff you've already seen before? This is why I hate reposts, there's not much more here. And ya I can hide them etc and it's not that big of a deal but if you're on reddit long enough you just start being annoyed by it.

Edit: I forgot to add that what reddit considers 'original content' is what you said, reddit is meant for you to post articles and websites other people have made so we can see them. While the submitter didn't have to make it, it's still original in the sense that it's never been seen on reddit before so people clicking it discover something new.

[–]darwinsaves 1 point2 points ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Everything that isn't exclusively created for Reddit just before posting has been seen by someone who feels the same way you do. I understand where you are coming from, as I also don't like things to be posted 100 times over.

You just may want to look at it like this though... It is like when someone orders pizza for everyone at work. You don't go in, take your slice, and then stomp on the rest before everyone gets a slice, because "I've already had mine." I have been on Reddit almost non-stop for over three years (even though my account is only just under 2 years), and I have seen tons and tons of posts. What I do find is that for every other comment that I see as unique, someone else yells that it's a "repost". Maybe to them it is.

That is why we have the voting system.

I fail to see where I misinterpreted anything. Please enlighten me. Or are you just bashing my comment without any way to back up your argument? There was no way to incorrectly interpret that comment. I did not say that Redditor was a bad communicator, only that I disagreed with the haughtiness and flawed logical reasoning it conveyed.

Good job completely misinterpreting a comment and then bashing it.

I should be saying this to you.

[–]Rightside -1 points0 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

He isn't actually incorrect, You'll find. It goes on for a bit, but it touches on the important points of why "it's new to me, so it's new" isn't an intelligent thing to say.

[–]darwinsaves 6 points7 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

He isn't incorrect in your opinion. I find him incorrect and garrulous. I read the whole thing. He frequents a site that doesn't produce a large portion of its content from organic means, and is unhappy that there are reposts. That is like moving to the desert and complaining about all of the sand.

[–]Rightside 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Except the desert was a pool, and people kept showing up with sand and getting karma for it.
