I made a post on r/civ (Civilization games subreddit) showing a really funky shaped randomly generated river I saw and most comments were fine but one guy was convinced that I went through the comparatively monumental effort of opening the map editor and changing the river for karma, as opposed to just starting the game and taking a screenshot.

And just to top it off another guy saw the fact that my scout unit was in the far north of the map and went on an obscenely condescending diatribe about how "ackshually" I should be placing my units in the far south of the map because that way I can explore better and whatever the hell. Dude did not stop for one second to consider that maybe the scout that was in the far north was exploring the cool river and that I didn't waste any production points on him because I got him for free from a tribal village...

God every time I go on that website (because let's be honest not a whole lot of good communities here for what I'm interested in) I get excited to share something super innocent and then some total loser has to come and ruin it all.

No matter what you post, someone on the internet will find a way to be angry about it.

Shut your whore mouth! On occasion, a post might just slip by the assholes. Make another blanket statement like that and I'll swat your grandma live on 8chan.

8chan still exists? I though the feds shut that pedoswamp down years ago...

To tell the truth I don't know. It was the first internet shithole that came to mind.

It was a very pungent example of an internet shithole indeed. May its bytes be lost to /dev/null for all time.

I'm not angry, you're angry!
