04.21.10 | ranking just goes by how many reviews/sound offs you have written not on pos/neg counts |
Bulldog
04.21.10 | ranking goes by
Total amount of pos's - total amount of neg's.
Highest amount wins.
i think...
Because I've seen contributors with more reviews AND higher approval rankings than me, and I still have a higher ranking. |
Dryden
04.21.10 | dumb list |
Douglas
04.21.10 | ahh no, not at all. it is an old system that is really not in effect anymore.
And the number 1 placed person is Mikesn with 250 plus reviews, all because his high review count. |
IRAI
04.21.10 | where do you find the list? |
mynameischan
04.21.10 | it factors in how many reviews you've written and how many pos/neg votes you've gotten
aka how much time you've wasted and how much you care about that time
it doesn't mean anything basically |
Douglas
04.21.10 | okay i was wrong, but chan is speaking truth |
Inveigh

Inveigh

04.21.10 | ah, from wiki:
Freaknik was an annual spring break meeting in Atlanta, Georgia, primarily of students from historically black colleges and universities.[1] Begun in 1982 as a small picnic near the Atlanta University Center, it was initially sponsored by the DC Metro Club [1] and was typically held during the third weekend in April to coincide with the schools of the Atlanta University Center's Reading Day. The event increased in size and popularity in the 1990s with dancing, drinking, parties, a basketball tournament, rap sessions, a film festival and a job fair.[2]
Atlantans' reception of the festival was mixed. In its heyday, the fest attracted upwards of 250,000 revelers to the city. Many residents attended and enjoyed Freaknik, and others complained about traffic congestion, lewd public behavior, open urination, noise, and trash due to street parties.[3] City leaders eventually took measures to curtail Freaknik's accessibility, and hence its popularity. As a result, Freaknik moved to Memorial Drive in DeKalb County, then to Daytona Beach, Florida. By 1999, celebration of the festival had died down due to heightened police security.
In April 2010, Atlanta officials said "there are no permitted Freaknik-related events inside the city limits." Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed also said that "he will be tough and even sue organizers of any Freaknik-related activities who violate city guidelines" |

04.21.10 | you gotta remember- not only do we have a large black population down here, we have a humongous hispanic population. combine hip-hop music, nudity, and alcohol/drug abuse with hispanic women, you got the best party imaginable |

04.21.10 | i was just talking specifically about the freaknik referenced in that wiki page. it doesn't mention miami, and daytona's kinda far, isn't it? has it moved to miami since then? |
intothepit83
04.21.10 | as far as i know, we had one last year. |
Inveigh
04.21.10 | i mean, it makes sense. if you're going to daytona, why not just drive a couple hours further and go to miami? |
intothepit83
04.21.10 | ya, plus, daytona is disgusting, besides during race week and spring break |
Inveigh
04.21.10 | yea i haven't been to daytona since i was like 10 years old, maybe longer. all i really remember was the beach, a hotel called perry's, and a restaurant called aunt catfish haha. |
intothepit83
04.21.10 | what am i saying? miami's the asshole of america! |
Inveigh
04.21.10 | i need to visit miami |
intothepit83
04.21.10 | visit fort lauderdale, avoid miami. fort lauderdale has everything miami has, just not south beach. and believe me, south beach isn't really anything to right home about. it's a bunch of restaurants, bars, and clubs that have over-priced drinks and are overrun by hookers just dying to give you VD as well as homeless people dying to give you VD. it's a terrible place. if there was an another circle of hell, it would be miami |
Inveigh
04.21.10 | nah i'm pretty sure it would be east st louis |
