How about posting thoughtful, interesting content when you come across it and don't worry about karma.

I miss old reddit, where self referential inane posts like this wouldn't clog the place.

[–]karmashwarma 4 points5 points ago

Yes! What happened to "Good on you", instead of "Fuck You"? The content used to be so much better. Miss Reddit....

[–]controllerhead 3 points4 points ago

let me tell you about a website that was mostly software engineers, social critics, conspiracy theorists, and science fiction nerds

please note the lack of memes, cats, and novelty accounts

you may think September started a few days ago; ...no, its been September for a very long time now. and October is nowhere in sight

[–]BoneyD -2 points-1 points ago

Fuck you

[–]quarg1992 80 points81 points ago

Redditors talk about having some sort of system, it's all bullshit. It's pretty much luck, I've seen the stupidest stuff get to the front page, then when I try posting something more meaningful I get tol to kill myself.'

[–]iFrankDaPug[S] 28 points29 points ago

Same, not to mention one of his posts is a repost that I have seen about 200 times.

[–]ShiinChan 5 points6 points ago

Re-Post are a bullet train to front page.. dunno why but it is written. You may get flamed.. but you get flamed with upvotes.. I dont get it.

[–]Axelion 5 points6 points ago

It is known.

[–]GoldenWarrior 1 point2 points ago

Yes ShiinChan, it is known.

[–]ys1qsved3 1 point2 points ago

That mofo...pitchforks everybody!

[–]erryday_IAm_rustling 1 point2 points ago

Congratulations. Now you're just like him.

[–]BryanBeast13 3 points4 points ago

Yea I posted somethig on /r/WTF that has nothing WTF in it and yet it still hit the front page

[–]DarthWunateytoo 4 points5 points ago

I posted a wallpaper I found that was serious WTF and got 6 points. That's where the real WTF is.

[–]BryanBeast13 2 points3 points ago

Yea... Dumb

[–]l30 6 points7 points ago

There's absolutely a science to it, but I'll be damned if anyone whose figured it out is willing to share.

[–]HigherFive 5 points6 points ago

/u/prannisment has been consistently hitting the front page for a while now. His secret is putting effort into it.

Actually good OC often makes the front page.

[–]skyman724 9 points10 points ago

WE DON'T ALL HAS DAT DOE!

[–]bitch_im_a_lion 2 points3 points ago

I like his submissions, but I hate when people put [OC] tags on their submissions. It seems like a lot of the upvotes they get come from people upvoting just because it's OC. Also he likes to complain when people post his gifs later on which is understandable, but there are plenty of people (redditors even) who don't mind their OC being reposted. Hell one of those guys (Frogman) was banned for posting too much OC (Though it was linked to his blog so the mods considered it blogspam despite the fact it was consistantly good content.) and he occasionally likes to pop up in a thread where his work was reposted and crack some jokes.

[–]HigherFive 0 points1 point ago

I'll never get the outrage over the [OC] tags. They're about as obtrusive as "TIL" and "DAE" and for some reason they are required in their respective subreddits.

Also he likes to complain when people post his gifs later[...]

Really? I haven't seen that. Or if he did, he had a change of heart.

[–]bitch_im_a_lion 1 point2 points ago

Here he commented on his Gollum gif being reposted.

"This was funnier when I posted it 6 hours earlier." doesn't sound like he's not bothered by it.

And I'm not "outraged" at the [OC] tags. I just don't like them. I've seriously seen plenty of comments saying "Upvoted just for the OC" on [OC] tagged submissions.

[–]HigherFive 1 point2 points ago

I wrote up a response and then hit ctrl-w: http://i.imgur.com/TBcXS.gif.


I think he was upset about the post title being identical to his. But whatever, I'm not bored enough to defend him (even though I am his biggest fanboi <3<3{}{}{}).

Haha. Actually I think I've seen more people complain about the tag. There was this one guy that was arguing that it's not OC, because OP used footage from a movie that he didn't film (mfw).

[–]JustHereToDerp 0 points1 point ago

It's really simple actually.

[–]Zafara1 0 points1 point ago

/r/risingthreads helps. Its now open to the public.

Theres other things (Never post against the hivemind, etc.)

[–][deleted] ago

[–]drawingdead0 0 points1 point ago

Mostly sound advice, but I've seen things that disagree with reddit hit the front page in the form of confession bear memes or that fuck me right jonah hill one

[–]runredditwild 0 points1 point ago

I know that feel bro...

[–]karmahawk -2 points-1 points ago

If it was just luck power users couldn't exist. You want whore tips: ignore submissions with over a hundred comments, if there are more than twenty piggyback off the comment with the best ratio, the shorter a comment the less flaws there are for people to take issue with, and most importantly be in a good mood. If you cannot win at comments you cannot win a subreddit. Because everything on Reddit is one giant conversation, and you'll just look like a wall-hugger making an awkward introduction.

[–]gamingdevil 11 points12 points ago

Every time I feel like I might be too nerdy, I think about the people who care about getting to the front page of reddit and feel much better.

[–]imjustdrunk 6 points7 points ago

whats the circle jerk about reaching a front page? congratulations a bunch of people on the internet approve of you. it doesnt mean its quality content

[–]morescience 17 points18 points ago

Quick question: why do you care?

[–]gnome_champion 5 points6 points ago

Because karma. This guy...

[–]Jorgemeister 12 points13 points ago

my job here is complete.

[–]TheWhitePony 5 points6 points ago

There was only one thing I could think about when I saw this post. That thing, is the Super Smash Bros. Melee Credit Scene.

Example

[–]Fapinyourface 14 points15 points ago

eat two dicks guy

[–]Lothens 4 points5 points ago

Cry harder bitch.

[–]xxThe_Artist 3 points4 points ago

This seems like the ending to smash bros, but more offensive and no guns

[–]kinnaq 7 points8 points ago

He probably remembered the nsfw tag.

[–]LetsJerkCircular 4 points5 points ago

My computer screen is visible to customers at work. This would be funny to have rolling endlessly as I pretend to care. (sometimes I care)

[–]benben555 2 points3 points ago

From this response, I guess that you give several flying fucks.

[–]Ididnotresurface 1 point2 points ago

What was his post?

[–]iFrankDaPug[S] -2 points-1 points ago

It was a pokemon rock paper scissor battle where the scissors evolved into a rock crushing machine. It wasn't OC too.

[–]wogs94 17 points18 points ago

Normally people link the post but describing it works just as well

[–]bigmeetchlarryhoover 8 points9 points ago

....it doesn't work nearly as wellಠ_ಠ

[–]AlmostAlwaysRambles 5 points6 points ago

No. That way the friend has means to make more karma. We can't have that.

[–]DarthWunateytoo 3 points4 points ago

Then I guess we can rule out r/karmaconspiracy.

[–]RykezOne 0 points1 point ago

just link it goddamn

[–]elclark94 1 point2 points ago

well you've made it to page 8

[–]MattBarnthouse 1 point2 points ago

That is my new favorite gif.

[–]TheRabidWeasels -1 points0 points ago

I know that feel.

My friend made his first post a few days after making an account and gets front page. Then he said it was too easy and has not posted since.

[–]overused-meme-alert -1 points0 points ago

I know that feel.

beep

[–]wojovox 1 point2 points ago

Mozart wrote more pieces that were neglected than he wrote which caught on.

[–]brainfoam -1 points0 points ago

I made it my 2nd day and never again

[–]homestargunner 0 points1 point ago

As a redditor for a year now and seeing your post

[–]frogswithwings 0 points1 point ago

tried to shoot the fuck yous with my super smash brothers lasers.

[–]Wilcows 0 points1 point ago

This gif would be better if it was a single "fuck you" being launched at the viewer at any given time, not a row like this.

Try following one from beginning to end, it makes sense. This is too hyper.

[–]LakeStClair 0 points1 point ago

Maybe he didn't post something that EVERYONE has seen a thousand times.

[–]32Dog -1 points0 points ago

I feel like this should be on /r/whoahdude for the gif.

[–]SeaTwertle 0 points1 point ago

Because it's extremely important and internet opinion is fair and predictable.

[–]NotFunny_atAll 0 points1 point ago

HAHAHAHA

[–]TheEternalUnrest 0 points1 point ago

I got to front page after like 20 days with a post. It's pretty easy in /politics if you happen to stumble on to some breaking news at the right time. Use proper grammar and make it look all fancy like. You're almost guaranteed to get at least front page of /politics.

[–]Naughty_Poptart 0 points1 point ago

I actually found myself moving forward closer to my screen everytime a fuck you went out of the screen I almost hit my monitor too before I caught myself

[–]fatkidftw 0 points1 point ago

I got there on my first day.

/don'thateme

[–]thane_of_cawdor 1 point2 points ago

Who fucking cares, getting a post on the front page is not a noteworthy achievement. It's sad that you're actually envious of something like this. No offense.

[–]airbrat 1 point2 points ago

Seriously, I can give 2 fucks about karma. OP are you a teenager?

[–]stuff22 1 point2 points ago

My first post ever went straight to the front page, same day I became redditor. What's the big deal, I thought, this is easy. Never ever happened since. :(

[–]Dweller30 0 points1 point ago

Anybody else think of the end credits to Super Smash Bros. when they saw this?

[–]adamwhenderson 0 points1 point ago

I was a redditor for 7 days.

[–]jpeace42 -1 points0 points ago

Well it looks to me as ur on the front page too

[–]_fuckyou_ 0 points1 point ago

I approve of this gif.

[–]spiderspud 0 points1 point ago

That was how my friend replied when my first post in an active subreddit got the front page.

[–]LooneyDubs 0 points1 point ago

I honestly don't give a flying fuck about karma. I think if it's not going to be specific, it should be attributed to posts and comments but not accounts. So tired of all the scheming and circle jerking.

[–]grant1derlin 0 points1 point ago

And now your almost there too

[–]PimpinPOPTARTZ 0 points1 point ago

aaaaand your still not on front page.

[–]bongsdontkill 0 points1 point ago

I like how everyone acts like making it to the front page is some sort of accomplish. The shit on my front page is usually garbage and I have to go a few pages deep to find anything not upvoted to oblivion by douchenozzles.

[–]indiemike 1 point2 points ago

Nice try, I know this is you again, Daniel!

[–]yeblod 0 points1 point ago

Nope, Daniel got hacked.

[–]MagickGurl 0 points1 point ago

I got on the front page on my first post (same day I made a reddit account)

[–]EdmundXXIII 0 points1 point ago

New Favorite .gif.

[–]Cablead 0 points1 point ago

When I joined reddit the first post I saw on the front page was made by someone at my school.

[–]jewkiddinme 0 points1 point ago

[–]themoonandthestars 0 points1 point ago

That's offensive.

[–]Caviac12 0 points1 point ago

IIRC I got on the front page of two subreddits within the first week of making a reddit account. I always thought that happened to everyone. I guess not...

[–]improbablynotpaul 0 points1 point ago

My first post made front page, I pretty much gave up after that.

[–]DoofaCling 0 points1 point ago

I bet she didn't even have to get dressed in order to do it!

[–]sansaccentaigu 0 points1 point ago

Is your post being on the front page...important around here or something? I mean unless you screen shot it, all you have is your karma to hug afterwards. Perhaps you should put the profanity away and wait a few years. You seem too young to use words like that liberally.

[–]HowOriginal26 0 points1 point ago

Have you tried not giving a shit?

[–]yeblod 0 points1 point ago

[–]jdwpom 2 points3 points ago

Suck it. I introduced I_RAPE_CATS to reddit. I've been jealous ever since.

[–]WillskE 0 points1 point ago

Place Fist in GIF ??? profit

[–]asian_noodle_soup 0 points1 point ago

If you wait 18 minutes it says "the holocaust never really happened"

[–]illegal_people 0 points1 point ago

Now make a bunch of accounts and downvote every post he posts from now on, show him who's the true alpha when it comes to collecting and giving a shit about Internet points, how dare he get to the front page! Probably posted something that's been posted thousands of times or googled something no one has ever seen before and claimed it has his in some kinda sick conspiracy based on getting you nothing and him all the karma that is rightfully yours. It's time to start a revolution, so arm up, arm up and downvote him into an oblivion for his oppressive reddit expansionist policies!

Or maybe you're him, and this is the post that made it to the front page and you're just saying fuck yourself to yourself (your "friend") and therefore should be hung, you nazi douche bag.

[–]CGS1585 -1 points0 points ago

I'm definitelly using this for my resignation email

[–]flatlander00321 0 points1 point ago

Who gives a shit?

[–]Maximuqq 0 points1 point ago

Haters gonna hate

[–]2akurate 0 points1 point ago

This is why people question 9/11.

[–]Slightly_Sentient -1 points0 points ago

who's your friend? :)

[–]BruceVento 1 point2 points ago

Cheer up! At least you made it to the 14th page!

[–]thou_liest 1 point2 points ago

Reddit: where upvotes do not necessarily imply friendship.

[–]iFrankDaPug[S] 2 points3 points ago

yep, we are currently downvoting all of each other's stuff.

[–]vchip 1 point2 points ago

So? Like the top comment says, post something more meaningful.

[–]toastpwnz -1 points0 points ago

Why does it seem like I can control the speed of the text?

[–]Cptn_Hook -1 points0 points ago

I got to the front page on the first link I submitted, immediately after signing up, because someone said, "Hey, that's good. You should submit it to reddit."

I didn't even know enough about this stupid website to be able to enjoy it.

[–]SamWise050 -2 points-1 points ago

You didn't exactly get front page, but here is some karma.

[–]batman_lives 1 point2 points ago

Wow! The gif loops properly.

[–]Geronimo15 -1 points0 points ago

Cry more

[–]DemonPride72 -2 points-1 points ago

You mad bro?

[–]YouAreAPyrate -3 points-2 points ago

I front paged within 3 days of registering, then quit while I was ahead.

[–]JessiMc -3 points-2 points ago

I'll have you know, I upvoted you before the gif even loaded because I knew I would agree.

[–]SEGnosis -3 points-2 points ago

Two whole weeks? I got to the front page on my first day and every week after till it got boring and stale.

[–]Mr_Shagwell -1 points0 points ago

I think it has to do with how much content you actually post also, lot's of post obviously give you more chances.

[–]Some_Guy112 -3 points-2 points ago

I thought everyone did that?

[–]Riceman222 -1 points0 points ago

(fap fap fap)

[–]TheVibratingPants -2 points-1 points ago

Now YOU'RE on the front page! HAHAH, TAKE THAT, BILL. WHO'S LAUGHING NOW?

[–]cleahey 0 points1 point ago

Is it weird that I watched that gif for a really long time?

[–]Wolfosaurus -3 points-2 points ago

There's getting to the front page, and then there's getting to the front page with OC. They're very, very different.

I'd just like to say I've been to the front page with OC. It's one of the greatest victories of my life.

Edit: Someone's jealous. It's okay, most of you will never make the front page with OC. It's okay to be angry.

[–]ocho117 -3 points-2 points ago

Give your friend a "Fuck you" from me too

[–]hammy607 -4 points-3 points ago

you go. YOU GO! You make it to the front page! This is a free upvote for your luck!

[–]chazzeromus -1 points0 points ago

I hope each one hit him in the face.
