FUCKING HATE REDDIT

Okay, let me start with this: FUCK. REDDIT. I really hate that faggot site and
its users. It's really bad and we need to find a solution for it. There's a
steaming pile of shit coming from that webshite, and it certainly isn't just
trolls. It's retards. Redditards, poluting our lovely /prog/. Through the text
I'll use "reddit" but I mean "programming.reddit.com" and not the whole reddit
community, which while still full of BS not relevant to /prog/'s polution.

THE(IR) PROBLEM
If you have an account at reddit or even browse it, and you're not a redditard
yourself you know what I'm talking about; Fucking idiots overusing internet
memes, exactly like what the xkcd faggot does. Doing so, they believe they
belong in some "elite" community of computer experts that like esoteric jokes.
You should understand their mental state by now: "I can't fucking program but I
might make esoteric jokes that apparently computer experts like and maybe, just
maybe others will think I'm an expert myself!". Fucking morons. If one takes a
moment from his day to browse reddit, might like the topics. Let's see what we
got: "How to * with Python *", "A simple * with *", "* in 10 steps", "*: the
revolutionary blog/software/other", "Using * for fun & profit". One might think,
"ah, a nice community. I'll stay a while with them". The other day wakes up only
to find the same topics with changed blog links and titles. If you don't believe
me try it yourself. (yeah, ofcourse there are the retarded "points too, how
could a faggot community live without them? Look: wikipedia, digg, ..)

WHY /prog/ SUCKS
It wasn't long ago that reddit faggots weren't aware of /prog/. I believe, 4-5
months ago /prog/ was clean of all the faggotry & spam. Back then a thread could
make your day, and everyone was contributing content, which ofcourse lead to
funny memes et al, unlike all these self-proclaimed "memes". (notice any simile
with the redditards? self proclaimed computer experts & funny or some shit) If
you are not a /prog/ regular or oldie you might have not noticed, you might
think that it's been like that from the beginning. But it wasn't. Even worse,
you might think that these posts are from trolls, but they are not. Ok, maybe
some are, but trolls are not retarded (as some may think). I'm a big time troll
and I don't think most of you understand trolling.

THE SOLUTION
Okay, now that I bothered you with my text, I'm all ears to see what you got to
say about this issue. I cannot think of a solution to get rid of faggots, but I
don't want to see /prog/ become a cesspool like reddit. I wish the old expert
programmers would come back..

Excuse the lack of bbcode in my post but I have to haste.

The LISP spam is so bad I believe it drives the redditfags away.

I'm curious, do you even browse the rest of 4chan? I mean, aside from /b/, it
actually has decent boards and discussions.
Regardless, my torrent download finished, I'll watch a movie. I don't expect
much to come from this thread, other than perhaps self realization from the
reddit fags, and more quality content from the regulars. lol.


P.S. I'm thinking about writing some code to get /prog/ interested in. Maybe
some common lisp SDL game or .. I don't know. Awesome stuff can happend if I
maek it scalable enough (barfed a bit while typing "scalable") and easy for
non-technical people to use it, other 4chan boards might get interested, if you
want to see what I have in mind check MUGEN for example.

Summary of the link: It's a 2D fighting game with 1 fighter and 1 map. It allows
scripting and to create characters, their moves et cetera. It might look boring
in the wikipedia screenshot but it can actually be exactly like street fighter,
or other 2D fighting games, just by adding the maps, characters, moves and
sound. Maybe I could write a 2D game like super mario, and instead of scripting
have an external editor (or something similar) to create maps, and have bitmaps
for every enemy. (and option to add more enemies & bitmaps). Are you following
me? Do you have some other idea? By the way, I'm open to languages, if common
lisp is not your liking. And ofcourse I will provide some working code before I
ask for contribution from /prog/.
