What the hell is up with people not getting satire/sarcasm/joking in posts?

It seems that every single ****tard who travels to the GDF finds a post (or three) that is obviously making fun of one of KMC's resident douchebags--using racism seems to be the biggest thing right now--and/or a callous response to a tragedy for the sole intent of inciting an emotional reaction, and said ****tard just has to get all high-and-mighty and make a post condemning the poster and/or extolling some virtue or another.

That was a really long sentence, but the question remains: WHY ARE THEY DUMB?

(Yes, this is a *****-thread designed so it looks like a legitimate-post-thread.)

Agreed. An influx of people who spend most of their time on the OTF.

Unless some one frequently visits this board they will not know when a person is being sarcastic, joking etc because incase you didnt realise its hard to be sarcastic using text unless you overly emphasise it.

I did that once when JesusTheChrist made that thread mocking FistOfTheNorth's but I didn't see FOTN's thread before JTC so I had no way of knowing it was a joke.

Bottom line: If you're new, stay in the Star Wars forum. I heard that's a noob factory.

I disagree, it is usually apparent. And of course text can convey that message, it is not solely a voice thing.

I always kinda figured that people who got "high and mighty" were simply doing so as a mockery as well.

Oh no! We gotta do something. Maybe raise the ground under them so the sarcasm can hit them square between the eyes.

And watch it bounce off cause the skulls are too thick...

Well I'm outta ideas.
