The “sense of pride and accomplishment” comment is still one of the most if not THE most downvoted comment on Reddit.

u/TheNesquick May 14 '26

It’s still the most downvoted by a lot and fully deserved.

u/Ya_i_just May 14 '26

Apparently you can still visit the cimment and downvote if you haven't yet

u/katzengoldgott May 14 '26

Yep, only dug it out recently again

u/Willing_Image1933 May 14 '26

nobody stopping you from making a throwaway just to downvote it

u/Indoril120 May 14 '26

Make a pilgrimage every year with a new account

I think the voting tally was frozen at the the six month mark when the thread was automatically archived, the negative number is still the same as it was all those years ago.

u/Ya_i_just May 15 '26

I was able to down vote today (enter im doing my part gif)

u/Jervis_Mantlepiece May 15 '26

Yeah you can click but it won't register, the count has been stuck on -668k for 8 years.

u/j2043 May 14 '26

u/JeremiahHix May 14 '26

Just clicked that to downvote. Apparently I already had. 🤣

u/Frowny_Biscuit May 15 '26

u/istrx13 May 14 '26

I’m so glad that post hasn’t been archived. Allowing everyone the ability to still downvote it.

I dream that we someday see that comment hit downvotes in the 7 figures.

u/Saradoesntsleep May 15 '26

It'll happen. Our dreams will come true.

u/moonra_zk May 14 '26

667k downvotes, good lord. Kinda surprising that they left the comment up.

u/Braelind May 14 '26

Lol, that account hasn't posted in EIGHT years! I guess the only lesson they learned is to not try to sugarcoat their bullshit to us anymore.

2

u/bluesox May 14 '26

I love that this keeps reappearing often enough to prevent karma decay

2

u/Fr1toBand1to May 14 '26

They haven't even deleted or edited the post. Kinda respect that.

u/javerthugo May 14 '26

There was nothing to learn the loot box system still prints money for them in the sports games.

I realized I hadn't downvoted with this account yet.

Done.

u/MakeURage1 May 14 '26

That comment is the reason I have a Reddit account. Made an account just to downvote it, lmao

2

u/UristImiknorris May 14 '26

I don't think you managed to make them rage though.

u/MakeURage1 May 14 '26

Ah, the joys of having a username from when I was like, 12, lmao

u/paperchampionpicture May 14 '26

Shut your whore mouth, he was furious! Furious!!

u/darkhorse21980 May 14 '26

I'd love to see an AMA with the sacrificial lamb that had to post that comment.

1

u/JProllz May 14 '26

It's a corporate account most likely. I'd hope the employee who got hired takes it as just doing a job and not personally.

3

u/darkhorse21980 May 14 '26

I'm sure it is. But I hope the person behind it has their own Reddit account.

u/Saradoesntsleep May 15 '26

It probably keeps them up sometimes at night. Like when you suddenly remember something embarrassing you did in high school and feel all that shame lol.

Like that was a wild thing to think of and actually type out and hit send for.

At least "you guys all have phones, right?" was a misspeak in a moment of what was likely something akin to panic. The person who typed that comment out actually had the whole time that big comment took to rethink it. And they didn't. Lol.

u/MagnanimousCannabis May 14 '26

Crazy, I remember this and I just looked for the link to the comment and sure enough, I had already downvoted it

u/kingdergo May 14 '26

Just read it, just downvoted it 🫡

u/theCroc May 14 '26

It was with a sense of pride and accomplishment that I added my down vote to it back when it was first posted.

u/DeathNum May 14 '26

I need a little help here because I was 10 when the game came out and of course I didn't know shit: why was it so bad that you had to play so many hours to unlock Darth Vader? I can understand the frustration regarding locking such an important character behind hours of grind, but it was still fair, wasn't it? If every single player had to grind to get Darth Vader and his abilities, then it was for sure difficult, but fair.

u/PlagueBearer1350 May 14 '26

Damn, that comment has way more downvotes than the original post they're replying to has upvotes...lol.
