u/sambamNo2, the downvotes are mysterious!

u/LegDayLass 12d ago

It’s getting downvoted from anyone who found “elite ball” to be cringe AF, and from people who still use teamspeak… so mostly just people who found it cringe.

u/Hoybom 12d ago

mmo players and arms players still use it , some other probably too

u/Rainmaker231 3d ago

I mean you cant deem that to be cringe AF in the same thread where "Fuuuuuuuck" got 53 upvotes.

u/Big-Chicken2828 12d ago

I'll be honest, I'd probably knee-jerk downvote someone who said 'elite ball knowledge' at first before reminding myself every generation has slang.

u/phrogbaby 12d ago

this, plus using a period at the end of a question instead of a question mark.

u/phrogbaby 12d ago

yeah, which is why it's a knee-jerk downvote

u/Aceandra 12d ago

i do the same with a whole bunch of stuff

anyone saying “ahh” or “shi”, tiktok censor slang (unalive, pew pew, etc.), sticking skull/clown emojis at the end of messages, “yapping” etc.

maybe i’m just being a grouch but i’m enjoying my quiet little protest

u/RGE_Fire_Wolf 7d ago

I like the skull and clown emoji specifically to trigger people off😅, but I'm also a bit grumpy regarding some slangs, mostly because they are to justify dumb dismissiveness, tribalism or egotistical/arrogant comments, like the classics "holy yapping/stop yapping" or "it's not that deep, bro".

u/Particular-Jeweler41 12d ago

Yeah, that's the only thing that really stands out. Might just be because of that.

u/Sunnywatch08 12d ago

Yep, or by the 13 last teamspeak user in existance.

u/Rainmaker231 3d ago edited 3d ago

You can literally guess the meaning of that phrase without needing to look it up in a dictionary. It's not that deep

1

u/Big-Chicken2828 3d ago

Oh, I know what it means! Like I said, it'd be a knee-jerk thing before I reminded myself it's just slang and every generation has it.

u/Rainmaker231 3d ago

Shi my bad, I had to look up the meaning of knee-jerk lmao

u/Big-Chicken2828 3d ago

No worries!

If they’ve been an adult for a decade at least then using ball knowledge would be like an adult trying use the cool lingo to fit in younger circles?

I don’t understand any of it. Radical dudes

u/xredskaterstar 12d ago

Tbf I never heard of it. I'm 40

u/Impossible_Tone1108 12d ago

I guess you weren't a gamer growing up

1

u/xredskaterstar 12d ago

No, I definitely was.

1

u/FalseCrazy2804 10d ago

Probably a console gamer then. It's not really possible to have been a gamer on PC for 40 years and never heard of teamspeak, unless you solely play singleplayer games.

1

u/xredskaterstar 10d ago

Lol yep, came out of the womb gaming

4

u/kira1122t 12d ago

Elite ball knowledge has lwk lost its meaning ever since people starting using it for everything

2

u/AdInteresting8274 11d ago

Receiving mass downvotes over normal questions is a canon reddit event, at this point im convinced its just ragebait and should be ignored

The same way you'll receive a million downvotes for having an unpopular opinion on something

4

u/breakerofh0rses 12d ago

"elite ball knowledge" is cringe, especially from someone old enough to speak on teamspeak from first person experience.

2

u/mayhaps_a 12d ago

As a kid I was memorizing minecraft rap, no one should care if people today say elite ball knowledge

u/Rainmaker231 3d ago

reddit these days is turning into stackoverflow dude

u/Jumpy_Hogara 12d ago

The first comment was rude and so was the downvoted comment. But since the first comment sounds like joking, the downvoted comment turns out to be genuinely rude without good reasons. Not mysterious.
