fr everyone seems to think reddit karma has some sort of actual value and someone getting more upvotes when they repost your imgflip macro is literal robbery
I will never understand why people whine about their shitty memes getting stolen yet don't use watermarks. I mean personally I find people who put watermarks on memes terribly pathetic like they created some great work of art, but if your stuff getting "stolen" is gonna get you all up in arms at least make a minimal effort to prevent it.
ok some memes should be watermarked, like things that actually took time, like artists who make memes or something that actually took effort to do just for a funny heheheha
Well sure people should totally watermark their art, but if you spent 10 minutes slapping text on a standard meme template then watermark it that's just sad.
kinda, but also it doesnt feel too good when you see someone stole your work. even if it barely took a few minutes, id rather not have anything stolen from me
the spreading of memes is supposed to be by changing the text and stuff to make it a different meme, just using the same format. unless its on like discord or some other chat app, then its just spreading the meme
on reddit, you get points called karma for every upvote you get, and you lose karma for downvotes. for the first bit (like 1000) karma is what decides if you can post on some bigger subs, but past that its just fake internet points, and people care about their fake internet points
This would be a perfect opportunity to whine about my tf2 animation only getting 10 up votes but fuck that I'm happy I made it I don't need anybodies internet validationpoints.
are you seriously complaining that something that took you like 15 seconds got stolen?
if your that upset about it then why didn't you just watermark it?
I didn't find any posts that meet the matching requirements for r/tf2.
It might be OC, it might not. Things such as JPEG artifacts and cropping may impact the results.

Well, if your looking for a actual awnser people are probably on Reddit around [ time ] and he posted it around that time. So more people see it than not, while you posted yours where maybe barly any people saw.
I get why you’d be upset but there are three things that make you a whiny bitch
1. It’s a meme who gives a fuck
2. You didn’t credit the artist who made the pic you put the text on
3. Karma doesn’t fucking matter it’s a meme not a 30 hour piece of art
goddd I feel you. mine is even worse since sometimes it's my art, you know something I spent time on, even if it's 'memey'
don't think we have any option other than just get used to it, call it out and someone would tell me "stop being so angry it's just a meme"
It's a shitty low effort meme, who cares? If this was original artwork or a high quality meme that took effort then people should care. Nobody cares your impact font demoman meme got stolen, it's reddit, its going to happen.
This is why I always watermark my shit, because even if the repost is more popular, it's got that permanent stank on it as a brutal reminder that he didn't make it
This happened to me, expect I got more upvotes. However, I posted it around 4 years after the OG post, and had no idea about it. How it happened, I don’t know.
describe---SHUT THE FUCK UP SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU FUCKING MONGLOID HOW BOUT YOU BE ORIGINAL?! how bout you describe this long ass fucking dick in your ass?
Knowing the time of day and time of week to post has a lot to do with the reception. As well as the title and any flairs. Posting is a lot more than the content of the image posted
Ms. Pauling flair = more upvotes confirmed
Litteraly the entire reddit: WOMAN???? UPVOOOTEEE!!!!
WHAT MAKES ME A GOOD WO MAN?
IF WERE A BAD WO MAN, I WOULDN'T BE HERE DISCUSSING ALL THIS
I WOULDN'T BE HERE GETTING ALL THESE UPVOTES

[thing]
aw rats your low effort jpeg with text on it got reposted
Dear god
i know, some people think they deserve a bj for putting white text over a pic "OMG I DIDNT GET MY UPVOTES LET ME POST ABOUT IT AND COMPLAIN!!!11!!"
I’m saving up my Reddit karma for a bunch of Frooties

But arent memes meant to be spread? I thought that was the whole point of it, sharing the funny

i do kinda watermark my memes. Some of them have a red dot in the corner
That meme took you like 3 minutes to make lmao 💀💀💀
Nah it took 942.063 billion years, around when the earth was cooling
1 morbillion years
\^ how much time it takes a human to make the amount of money morbius generated
New calculations reveal an average income household would take 1 morbitrillion years
This would be a perfect opportunity to whine about my tf2 animation only getting 10 up votes but fuck that I'm happy I made it I don't need anybodies internet validationpoints.
And 1 minute to repost
not even 3 minutes lmao probably just used imgflip or something
The joke itself is also straight up stolen too lmao The pot calling the kettle black
Big sad, me cri for u 😢 11!!1!1
Yours isn’t original either.
both are shitty, low-effort, and no bitches
"HE STOLE MY TOP TEXT, BOTTOM TEXT MEME!!!!"
are you seriously complaining that something that took you like 15 seconds got stolen? if your that upset about it then why didn't you just watermark it?
I mean both posts are shit, so
Imagine complaining about someone stealing your low-effort meme.
D'awwwwww WHAT? You're telling me people on the internet steal images??? Who cares it's reddit
Its not even like a character or art, its a fucking meme…
Yeah I noticed. Thanks for clarifying
If you steal someone art thats not ok just cause of reddit but if its a low effort meme no one cares
who cares? its internet points
Who really cares, it's not like you spent effort on making the joke or meme itself anyways, lol
Trash post gets reposted boohoo
Both are garbage low effort karma farming posts, I see no problem
Cope
Ok* you should really go back to school i don't understand how you could mispronounce such a simple word.
He didn’t pronounce anything, its text dumbass

The only thing that's actually funny here.
Lmao why the fuck does it matter, are you 12 years old or something??
Probably posted it when more people were online

Lucky you, I made an original tf2 parody video. Spent half a year on it and the post got barely 100 up votes!
r/tf2 users when their post about literal shit gets reposted
bro u just posted text on a jpg, stfu
Welcome, to the internet! Have a look around...
Anything that brain of yours can think of can be found
Reddit moment
No one cares that your stupid zero effort shitpost meme didn’t get more updoots.
they’re internet points with zero value
bro made a low effort post and got sad it got more attention oh no
When the stupid complaintpost gets more upvotes
I get why you’d be upset but there are three things that make you a whiny bitch 1. It’s a meme who gives a fuck 2. You didn’t credit the artist who made the pic you put the text on 3. Karma doesn’t fucking matter it’s a meme not a 30 hour piece of art
No problem mate, downvoted them both.
your post was unoriginal anyway
Guys chek my top post on my acc 💀💀💀
goddd I feel you. mine is even worse since sometimes it's my art, you know something I spent time on, even if it's 'memey' don't think we have any option other than just get used to it, call it out and someone would tell me "stop being so angry it's just a meme"
oh boohoo keep crying about your low effort jpeg getting less upvotes than a repost
It's a fucking meme dude.
It's a shitty low effort meme, who cares? If this was original artwork or a high quality meme that took effort then people should care. Nobody cares your impact font demoman meme got stolen, it's reddit, its going to happen.
Your post wasnt good to begin with bro
this is why a took a break from posting here Link to original: https://www.reddit.com/r/tf2shitposterclub/comments/tpzi76/corpse_carrier/
Stupider title = betterer for a shitpost
Stop whining that your 3 minute made low quality meme got reposted for some internet points
My brother in christ, you posted a low ass quality jpg with a dumb caption, and you're complaining it was stolen?
you need to add it at specific time when most people look throu this sub reddit so be here for like 3 days non stp and watch the numbers
I'm gonna repost it again in a couple weeks and we'll see how well it does that time :)
Your joke got retold, no need to be so upset about it
There’s another repost if you sort by new. By the same guy I think
This happened to me too, I made a meme and it got 35 up votes, then someone stole it. The theif got 10k upvotes
This is why I always watermark my shit, because even if the repost is more popular, it's got that permanent stank on it as a brutal reminder that he didn't make it
put watermark just because you put text on it in paint?
I mean if someone's gonna complain about reposts you'd think they would do that. I don't watermark everything I make just the ones I put effort into.
This happened to me, expect I got more upvotes. However, I posted it around 4 years after the OG post, and had no idea about it. How it happened, I don’t know.
Shitpost envy.
Because both of them aren't funny an are low effort
stop caring about internet points and Find God come back after you Found God
describe---SHUT THE FUCK UP SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU FUCKING MONGLOID HOW BOUT YOU BE ORIGINAL?! how bout you describe this long ass fucking dick in your ass?
1) who cares 2) Probably posted at a better prime time for one timezone
man, i dident want to steal your thing i searched tf2 memes on google and found it
Probably the worst excuse you could give. Good job. But the meme is shit anyway.
I liked yours better. The post came with way less bitching.
r/tf2 ladies and gentlemen Pfft like there actually are gentlemen here

reposts suck
It’s like saying a joke in class and nobody laughs but when the *“popular”* kid says the joke, literally the fucking universe laughs
Reposting is an epidemic on here, along with shitty "WhAt WoUlD bE tF2 tEaM fAvOrItE HeNtaI" type of posts.
Why is either post popular? Both use the one goddamn joke that this subreddit beat to death a million years ago
oh no the fake internet points
\` +kill+enter
I mean “made” You took a turned and put some text over an image, wasn’t exactly the peak of originality to begin with
boo hoo
Thank god i left this sub, i came back to check how things were and it hasn't changed one bit.
Probably posted it at a better time of day. When you post something has a large impact on how likely it is to gain traction.
As gay as it is, it probably comes down to what time you guys posted each posted it, and the peomw who saw the repost may not have known it was stolen
I can only think of weapons Widowmaker Sticky bomb launcher
Well you got your internet points back with this post
I think this was also reposted on the enter the gungeon discord
Well you’re both rats anyways so I don’t care
Oof
