OSB?

I was checking the nest post secret, and there are some mentions of OSB. so I googled it and found out it means one-star bandits. why do people get so pissy about their post only being rated one star? what do the stars mean, anyway?
the nest is weird.

Re: OSB?

  • One star means "I hate you you useless tool. Go die."

    Five stars means "You are amazeballs. Have the sex with me please."

    At least, that's what I always imagine.

  • I don't even know what stars you're referring to. Is it something specifically on TN? I've never been there, I'm told it's scary.

  • keeerist, I don't even want to think of what my posts would be rated by this time.  Is there a negative option?

  • Heh.  I'm constantly hit by the OSB.  I don't even notice it until someone points it out to me.

    Are the stars a tally of what people star it as? That just seems confusing and kind of pointless...

    [QUOTE]yeah, at the top of threads there's stars. for example: <a href="http://community.thenest.com/cs/ks/forums/thread/29015603.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://community.thenest.com/cs/ks/forums/thread/29015603.aspx</a>

    Ah hah! That seems... random.

    I'm all over the radioactive Cheetos though. You're all right, that place is weird.
  • I don't understand how it works.  If I don't like you, so I one-star your post, can't your friend who does like you just give it 5 stars?  I don't get it.

  • I think rating posts is pointless and stupid.  Who cares?

    Alix, I 5 star this post - I'm cracking up!
  • I meant to ask this in the other Nest thread. Yeah, this seems like some stupid extraneous option of bitchitude. I mean, somebody could go down the entire first page and just one star everyone. Big whoop.
  • Girls on my month board of TN have been talking about this exact same thing. I had no idea what they meant or that we could control them.

    Can't we all be adults here? The stars seem kinda pointless to me. And yes, TN is a bit weird, some boards are ok, some are not.

    See, I would abuse this.  On days when I liked someone, I'd give them all fives.  On days when I didn't like what they said, I'd be tempted to give all of their responses a big old one.  Luckily I'm fickle and it would all balance out, but still :)

    "You can take your etiquette and shove it!" ~misscarolb
  • OH NO that was just a bunch of 1 stars

  • Asterisks make me think of typing this: (_*_) which makes me think about typing this: (_x_)

    I'll one star you, you...you... one star bandit?

  • Six stars means "I totally want to go all polygamist with you and start to pop out ugly little screaming trolls right this second."

  • So you're saying vally wants Lala's baby?

    "You can take your etiquette and shove it!" ~misscarolb
  • does it stand for One-Star-Bandit (singular) or One-Star-BanditS? because really for someone to think that ONE person is going to all the different boards of the nest is quite ridiculous. I think it's a gang of OSBs... yeah you know me.
