Is it really necessary for FReepers to state the obvoius and insert the assinine {/sarcasm} everytime. In case you have not noiced, FReepers are a bit more savvy than your average democRAT.

enough already, we can figure out when something is sarcastic. we dont need signs to tell us what sentiment a statement carries.

When I don't put in the [/sarcasm] tag I get flack for that too. Most freepers are pretty savy. Some get [disgusted] at the slightest thing [/disgusted]

As a matter of facts I have seen when people left out the (/sarcasm, because they figured it would be obvious, and got flamed, because some thought they really mean it.

I think the reason is, that we can never underestimate the ludicriousness of the liberal position and sometimes they sneak in here. The Admin Moderators are doing a super job in Zotting them, but some do manage to stay just under the radar and that fine line. So the (/sarcasm) is necessary to make sure people don't misunderstand.
