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.

    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?

    yeah, at the top of threads there's stars. for example:

    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...

    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?

    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 :)

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

    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.
