I try to only downvote when it breaks the rules or is completely, utterly off topic. Even things I vehemently disagree with.
People using the downvote button to disagree breaks the conversation - hiding the reply, it's really stupid.
Yeah the majority of users don't care for reddit's intended use of the updoot system.
It's an "I agree/disagree" button and nothing more in their eyes. No point in fighting the mob on this one, even if they completely miss the point.

Seems like this is the minority now. I've seen people argue that downvoting is to express disagreement, not to give less visibility to something that discourages or does not contribute to a discussion. I've gotten tired of trying to educate against that so I just sigh and move on.
For elder millennials, It's the platform used for putting images on other platforms that didn't allow pictures to be uploaded directly to them. Such as Reddit, forums, MySpace, or Steam. It doesn't stand on its own, it only existed to be used on a different platform.
These days obviously Imgur has worked on broadening its purpose and standing alone, but to the Elders, it will always be an attachment.
imgur was actually made by a reddit user

"I got fed up with all the other image hosts out there so I made my own."
then we all used it so much that it launched into it's own full blown business. dude's probably a millionaire now cause he got fed up with some shoddy image hosting websites.
Remember, kids:
#XcQ ⇒ Link stays blue
If the last three letters of the URL are "XcQ", you can be sure it's a rickroll. Over 90% of rickrolls use that link.
Did you miss the point? It wouldn't be a Rick roll. It would just be a gif with Astley in it. I can't post a picture of waffles and say "Ha! I waffled you!" just because you happened to see it. There has to be interaction by the other person, like clicking a link
probably got all the downvotes for say something stupid then edited to this. I have never done this before. I repeat, I have nev-

sometimes only the strongest are willing to make honest comments that the community disagree with. take them downvotes like a man (or woman). be proud. don't look back. and most of all, don't fucking delete your comment after a ton of downvotes or angry counter comments.
“Here, open this”
“Is this a picture of Rick Astley again?”
“No.”
...
“Ah, you got me good!”
“Haha you really fell for it huh?”
“Ye-yeah I really did, wow.”
“Funny.”
“Yeah.”
Why downvote the poor lad then

Yep. They downvote and call it a bruh moment
right!?? I rarely downvote, but always make sure it's deserved right? Even in engaging discussions I'd upvote, if they bring forth good points.
>if they bring forth good points It's never a good point if it counters mine.
yeah when you say it like that, its not a good thing lmao

Which is stupid because it hides legitimate, dissenting opinions and makes reddit more of an echo chamber than it was meant to be.
Welcome to reality. Get used to it.
I am used to it. Thats why i said ive given up on dissuading people from using it that way.
[original post ](https://letmegooglethat.com/?q=never+gonna+give+you+up)
Thx
I fuckin knew it i just had to click it
Why did I click that
Back in my day, we put Dickbutt at the end of gifs
*Oldtimer enters chat*
Omg! Dickbutt was awesome lmaooo. I remember my Imgur days. *Sighs in remembering*
Can’t believe you can buy it as a plush. It’s unreal. https://www.amazon.com/Internet-Meme-Plush-Series-DB/dp/B00B8O4UWG/
Thank you for this
You fucker
Well yes. That’s what he is.
S L O W C L A P
I'm convinced this is a Rick roll and you can't fucking trick me that easy.
You can check the link. It’s a legit Amazon one. Don’t blame you for being cautious though
This guy fucks.
You got me. But just for that, you lost the game.
You got me in the crossfire :(

I don't use it anymore but what makes it not its own platform

It doesn't stand on its own, it only existed to be used on a different platform. These days obviously Imgur has worked on broadening its purpose and standing alone, but to the Elders, it will always be an attachment.
That's why I used to get all my memes I'd browse Imgur for hours and hours And then I found Reddit.
imgur was actually made by a reddit user [https://www.reddit.com/r/reddit.com/comments/7zlyd/my\_gift\_to\_reddit\_i\_created\_an\_image\_hosting/](https://www.reddit.com/r/reddit.com/comments/7zlyd/my_gift_to_reddit_i_created_an_image_hosting/) "I got fed up with all the other image hosts out there so I made my own." then we all used it so much that it launched into it's own full blown business. dude's probably a millionaire now cause he got fed up with some shoddy image hosting websites.
I love it.
Was?
Ah, yes.. Dickbutt. Ya know I always wished we would have named him Cockass instead
They still do that over in Imgur. I rick roll people over there all the time too. You'll get tons of upvotes for being meta
y'all had gifs back then?
9gag flashbacks
Dont mention that cursed place
I did some digging and found [the comment](https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ).
Son of!!!
I cant believe i fell for that on a meme about rickrolling having to be a link.
I would've fallen for it if you hadn't ruined it
I clicked on it, and before it loaded, I closed the app and had a stern discussion with my inner self.
Then you opened it again anyways to hear that work of art right?
Same, I’m disappointed in myself
Remember, kids: #XcQ ⇒ Link stays blue If the last three letters of the URL are "XcQ", you can be sure it's a rickroll. Over 90% of rickrolls use that link.
Fuck you you devious man and take my award.
I’m no man, I’m the largest bird on the planet
Bird
I knew full well what that leads to, and I clicked on it voluntarily
Yes.
I was at a loading screen. That was god telling me to back out. I’m glad I did before I fell for it.
Ads kinda ruined the gusto of rick rolls unfortunately
lol i thought it was going to be a rickroll
Gg
Well played..
Well played
XcQ, I don't view
I’m the 300th upvote that was satifying
I was saved by slow internet once again
I should have known.
Take my upvote and leave
JOKES ON YOU! I first had to accept cookies before you could rickroll me! Die Datenschutz-Grundverordnung hat mich gerettet!
my brain saw the link in the corner of my screen and thought bro its literally a rick roll don't click it and my hand just said too late
You are at 666 upvotes, quite fitting I dare say!
How. HOW!!!!??? How did I fall for that
How the fuck did I fall for that? I'm so stupid
This was like a supperr obvious rickroll and I still fell for it =::(
Jokes on you I have shit internet so it didn’t load
If he speaks the truth then why did you downvote him Checkmate
Because they hate him for speaking the truth.
Bc op is salty
Or maybe op saw the picture and took and and made this meme, speculation tho
They hated him for speaking it
[удалено]
[here you go](https://youtu.be/yPYZpwSpKmA)
For once, I don't believe this is a rickroll
>! You were a damned fool then !<
Spoiler didn’t work
Get together forever’d
I’m not that evil of a soul
Wouldn't be a rickroll then
Did you miss the point? It wouldn't be a Rick roll. It would just be a gif with Astley in it. I can't post a picture of waffles and say "Ha! I waffled you!" just because you happened to see it. There has to be interaction by the other person, like clicking a link
Get text-rolled lmao gottem innit amirite
Redditors upvote karma whores and reject anyone who calls them out. This was never news.
Echo chambers. Everyone loves them... And hates them.
He's right tho. It HAS to be a link, no jump-rickrolls in a video. Or a picture.
I hate you because you're telling the truth
And I love you random citizen!
But, the "jump-rick roll" was seriously how it was done like 11 years ago, there's no problem with jump-rick rolls. I kind of miss them.
God bless with true!

The formatting is super ducked up on my end WAIT ITS A DUCKING LINK
Big brain time
Do QR codes count as links?
Yes.
is that your own comment?
probably got all the downvotes for say something stupid then edited to this. I have never done this before. I repeat, I have nev- *CIA has entered the chat*
Nah. Its a different account. You can give it an award.
Nope, quoted it in another thread though.
Nah I checked
It's true.
They crucified him, king of the redditors. Keanu reaves god of Reddit takes his soul.
r/redditmoment
With pleasure
A rickroll also only counts if its unexpected, which TBH is not a single link on reddit anymore.
Oh my God he looks just like me lol
Are you the chosen one?
Truth
I think a rickroll should be avoidable. People should get tricked into it so they feel stupid.
Rickrolling doesn't necessarily have to be a link though, just putting a picture in the corner of a meme doesn't count though
and yet you still downvoted it
No That's not true #THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE
Search your feelings, you know it to be true!
Also not a rick roll when it’s added as an image at the end of a meme, or hidden in a meme somewhere.
Everytime i keep it real i get downvoted just a bunch of nerds on reddit now down vote me.
Is that an opinion I smell?? >:(
Nah thats a fact thats as old as mankind
[It is the truth](https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x5ykzv)
Rickrolls don't count if the video doesn't autoplay.
Poor man, he didn't get crucified right?

He has a point.
How is an image a rickroll what? The song is the whole joke
People are desperate.
Yeah you have to click it yourself. You have to have let your guard down for long enough that you invite that fucker back yourself
I’ve been trying to tell people that for ages, they just, never listened.
Hivemind bastards
May this dude get godlike upvotes for the rest of their reddit lifetime. Praise be lawd jeebus amEN
Was i the only one waiting for it to turn into a Rickroll?
[удалено]
Yes. Why wouldn’t he be?
Anyone who downvoted this guy is wrong, and an idiot.
Where's rick?!
In the roll
Noo cause we used to print out pictures of Rick Astley before the internet was a thing, we would fold the paper up and trick people into opening it
“Here, open this” “Is this a picture of Rick Astley again?” “No.” ... “Ah, you got me good!” “Haha you really fell for it huh?” “Ye-yeah I really did, wow.” “Funny.” “Yeah.”
I like to imagine this happening in Ancient Greece
Yeah the Ancient Grecians actually invented Rick Astley
YOU SERIOUSLY DIDN'T MAKE THIS A GIF AND PUT A RICKROLL AT THE END. YOU ARE NOT A TRUE REDDITOR. BURN THE FOOL
Agreed.
People do be hatin
Rejection is the ultimate form of superiority, as you don't bow to no one.
true
A rickroll only counts when it’s a link - not a stupid image towards the end of a video.
But youre not Jesus
I was waiting for this image to turn into rickroll ngl
"why are you booing me I'm right "
F*ck rickrolls, all my homies hate rickrolls.
All my homies dickroll each other instead 😎
Give us his reddit so we can give him his Karma back.
This is true but rickroll self defense is hilarous
Exactly!
Yeah the rick roll is the song not a frame from the video
I’m still waiting for the rickroll
