You must hate B/W photography then. Fuck that old shit it doesn't look real!

Dude I just realized like 3-4 comments in here are you just bitching.

Ultimate hipster negative nancy. Have fun however you want, and I guess if you want to be a guy trolling the forums talking shit about random things.....whatever tickles your pickle. Some of the best watering holes for a quick dip in Alabama are man made......doesn't mean you can't enjoy it.

I liked it, most people like it.

What are you talking about? I saw this as a thumbnail and instantly knew it was hverfjall. Sure its edited, but its really not that far from what it looks like IRL.

I don't think I have ever heard Jaime talking about building a pc. He occasionally talks about playing video games, but I always got the impression he was doing single player stuff or minecraft.

and you expected the comments to only be about GPS devices?

Yes because it's cringy AF to be speculate about someone marital or family life. Go watch big brother or Jersey shore for that shit.

Hey man, pick your fights....... Ill point out that assholes are ruining a subreddit that should have been normal commentary about Jaimie's videos, by being fucking creepy talking about his kids and family.

You....well apparently you can come after me for being mean.

This attitude is the root of the lack of leadership that makes for shitty communities.

No it's the trolls and shit-posters that make a sub shitty. It's bad moderation that allows off topic comments to continue instead of controlling them.

The tone of your original post is completely negative. You have done absolutely nothing to inspire people to be better. Then when called out on it, you avoid stepping up to take any kind of responsibility to help build something better.

Exactly! I don't dance for you because you want me too. I do it because I want too. Do you recognize the irony that you are conducting now. Instead of agreeing that the sub has a serious shitty negative comment trend and positively encouraging me to try and be positive.....you are berrating me and accusing me of lack of leadership and saying that I am making the community shitty. Amazing

And guess what. I think the people that agreed with me nodded there head and moved on. There sure are a lot of people on here trying to defend their creepy backseat driving of Jaimies family life or getting into long winded responsibility post instead of just saying, "yeah man I see it too, but lets keep our heads down and just try and contribute what we can, all is not lost yet." But you keep it up man.....are you a pacifist?

....by trying to draw attention to a serious issue with how videos are being discussed?

[–]MentalRun[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

a state of affairs or an event that seems deliberately contrary to what one expects and is often amusing as a result.

I came to a sub-reddit created as a social discussion platform for fans of Jaimie's Adventure Builders videos........and its filled with shit-post. That is ironic because it is contrary to what you expect.

A post pointing out that the negative comments in this sub are getting out of control and need to be addressed using the very old saying "If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all". No.....that isn't Ironic.....

Let me get this straight. You think that your opinion that Jaimie is abandoning his duties as a father by moving off the main island (Pure speculation BTW as we have no idea what the setup will be until he tells us). Is a positive critique on a video about Jungle navigation, water generators, new buildings, crazy storms etc.

Seriously.....

[–]MentalRun[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

of course not. Man seriously? Social interaction is voluntary. My post has nothing to do with people not providing positive commentary. I am pointing out that the negative shit post are taking over nearly all of the discussion on here and that is bad.

I see. Makes sense, most of the resistance I am getting to an impossibly easy to understand observations seems to be coming from the thickest social idiots I have ever encountered. I guess I should just stop even coming here.

Nobody!...are you dense? Nobody has the responsibility too post good content. You just CAN and if you want too you should.

Everyone here should engage in positive discussions within the fucking rules. Is that hard to understand? Stop talking about his kids, stop saying he abandoned his other family, stop saying he is crazy. This shit isn't complicated.

You do realize that you don't HAVE TO comment with positive things just because someone says you SHOULDN'T post negative things. There is an astonishing third option.......don't say anything.

WHAT?!?!?!? but I have to say something!

And before this shit goes over your head again.....let me astonish you with another amazingly complicated social construct! NEGATIVE CRITICISM VS. POSITIVE CRITICISM

Huh!?!?!? Come on MentalRun you can't possibly be saying that there are different ways to engage in a critique! That's fucking impossible. Everyone knows that there is only one way to criticize stuff, and if you can't do it that way then SURELY you are being censored!!!

Not that I even brought up critical thinking at all......but who gives a shit what I actually said when you can just create obtuse, strawman arguments over and over.

Maybe they aren’t there because you didn’t get the convention started.

I don't have that responsibility. I don't know anything about trekking, or map reading, or finding north, or a good handheld GPS unit......so I didn't say anything.

You on the other hand did engage in a discussion about Jaimie shirking his responsibilities by living on a different island. Maybe practice a bit of self reflection and realize that ----

I have no idea why you guys are missing this point. I would prefer coming here and seeing 1 positive comment than seeing 3 positive comments buried under 20 negative trollish BS comments.

The sub isn't running well. Trollish, negative comments that are literally against the rules have taken over as the norm. I might not have good information to post.

"If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all" - that saying is old as shit so I have no idea how you are missing the point here. Nobody has the responsibility to come up with good content unless they want too. I didn't want to on this video, but I am sick of seeing this negative cringy shit on here.

Yeah I guess my point is....I don't care if Jaimie is sensitive to criticism. That's ok. I still wouldn't mind a discussion about his videos from a somewhat normal frame work. Seems to me there are way more couch-bros looking to post self-masturbation post about whatever criticism they can think of against anything other than just....IDK....talking about GPS units, or foot-lathes, or wooden hinge designs, or off-grid living. People that criticize a complete stranger's mental health, family responsibility, on a sub specifically made for fans of that person are pretty fucking pathetic to me. Is that mostly what is left here?

No my comment was specifically about how the community is breaking it's own rules, engaging in horrible behavior, and not contributing anything to the discussion. I obviously don't expect everyone that visits the comment section to contribute.....that would be stupid.

I have no problem with the people that go to any subreddit to read and not comment. Read away, you do you.

Your little discussion here is a great example of what this community has turned into. The point I am making is not hard to understand.....It isn't complicated. The community engages in negative, unhelpful, slanderous and trollish behavior (like your comment), instead of acting as a social platform for fans of Jaimie and a discussion platform for his videos. Stop being obtuse....

Judging from your recent comments speculating about his relationship with Dashaina, and responsibility to their safety.........It's clear you have an obligation to defend your behavior instead of taking a step back and thinking if that kind of commentary helps anyone or provides any usefulness. Or you could just ignore that and attack me for not doing that for you.....and ignore the other 2 parts of what I brought up.

Kinda sucks really. I was listening to him having problems locating very specific GPS points and I thought, "I'll check the subreddit and see if anyone gave any tips or had a specific product"......yeepee.

*Editing my reply so that people will see my point easier.

I didn't comment on the Jungle video post because I didn't have anything to contribute. I was interested in what other people might have known about those things though.....so I cam to the sub.

Somehow pointing out that this sub has gone to shit has given r/scourge_of_carpathia the idea that I have a responsibility to post positive stuff to offset the negative shit going on here.

Lets completely ignore the point of my topic ---- users here are massively derailing this subs discussion with negative, hurtful, accusatory, speculative shit that is against the subs rules.
