Hey guys isn’t it crazy how fast spread fear is? Like, it’s easily compared to something more relatable [the common example being one of many wars], with rentry.
Like, probably a couple people misunderstood the rules and added that odd “``` i own this url. i know my edit code. if anyone tries resetting it its not me. i will never trade this. i got this fairly” to their urls.
And the people seeing that felt like if they didn’t have the same thing, they were weak—someone could take their stuff from them or something.
Despite, very obviously, being a useless phrase. Everyone started using it.
Almost all of you said you did it because others did. And it would be better to be wrong and feel safe with the community than to not, I guess. Whatever it’s a cool example
or people just did it to verify the url was theirs and giving their socials out IF by chance the url got stolen. Or for an easy way for trading contact if the url is uft. That's why I do it at least. I fear its not a weakness either 😭 its just a way to say its ur I'm so confused on HOW a person could feel "weak" for not adding a simple contact form, or how this is fearmongering. plus at the end of the day it IS a rentry url. on a markdown pastebin website. just my opinion like, no hate, clearly.
