How can someone disagree that Snaptalent felt more personal to me than various other job board sites I've visited? That was literally my first reaction, and was in response to joubert's open question, "How is this different from the other gazillion job boards?"
So it feels like a slap in the face to be ridiculed for answering a question honestly.
(Yeah, I do let my emotions get the better of me sometimes. I view this as a strength in certain situations, such as in social interactions, where apathy is definitely a weakness.)

Edit: I just realized I didn't say "Snaptalent feels more personal to me", which is what I meant. Damn. I said "Snaptalent feels more personal," which is valid to downvote because you can certainly disagree with it.
This is why "letting my emotions get the better of me" is probably more of a character flaw rather than a strength. Being emotional can sometimes be a strength, but you have to be sure you know exactly what you're reacting to, which I didn't. Sorry. I'll leave these two comments up because otherwise it would feel like I was running away if I deleted them. We don't get to take back our mistakes in real life, so I won't take back mine here.
- jacquesm 18y agofixed that for you. Now for every moron there is someone who will weigh in on the other side, but it might take a while, so unless your comment is days old I don't think you should take a downmod that serious. Simply do the same, whenever you see a comment moderated down unfairly mod it back up again. Assuming there are more decent people than jerks I think in the long run the decent people should win out. cheers!
- palish 18y agoThank you. Yeah, that's a good way of looking at it. (To be clear, my comment was fairly downmodded, because I misspoke. But what you're saying is certainly a good thing.)
