Yes, I do think there would be very little causing people not to vote for dupe. If it's eventually found to be a dupe - the votes are transferred, so no harm done. >> ^xxovercastxx:

The problem is that calling it a dupe without any confirmation makes some people less likely to vote for the video even if it isn't really a duplicate post.
I have a hard time believing that. There are no downsides to voting for a dupe, why would people not vote?



People who know the system, sure. Newer members might just decide to skip it.

I didn't take a poll so I can't say it has a huge (or any real) effect on voting... I'm just basing it on my initial reaction to seeing it.

It also isn't a knock on any individual. I've had the urge to say "I think this has been posted before" on a video, but felt it would be kinda lazy of me to make such an assertion without at least confirming it first.


Anyway, liked the video. Upvote for tops made of tubes. "Wtf?"

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Have to confess I am not entirely sure how this website functions, unless someone else agrees with me that this video has ran it's course here before. I think it even hit top 15 then as well. Then what's stopping people from removing the video from the site, waiting for it to be purged and re-submitting said video for another vote up to the top 15?


If it was removed by the original poster they would 'lose' the votes that it collected, which are attributed to them, so there's no incentive to the original poster to do so, as their sift-rank is linked to the number of votes they posted have.

And if someone posted this earlier, we can link this to that one auto-magically anyway. I haven't been around for a while, but I haven't seen it and I've gladly upvoted.

This clip was hilarious.

This has been on here before....will search a bit and see if I can locate.

Well that's one way to assure fewer upvotes...

Shrug, I can't locate it. It's been on here before because I don't see College Humor videos anywhere but here on the sites I browse. Thought the point of this site was to show videos you might not see otherwise and cut back on reposts.


That's true, and if it is a dupe then by all means please point that out.

The problem is that calling it a dupe without any confirmation makes some people less likely to vote for the video even if it isn't really a duplicate post. I haven't seen this one before, so if the old one is gone for some reason then I'm glad this one was posted.

Call dupe if it's true, but please confirm that the old version still exists before posting about it.

Yep, saw the story earlier today. I see they toned down the pants a little by making them dark blue and not shiny, like I and others suggested, though they still kept the tacky stars. They also gave her red boots, just like in the comic. But I still ain't feeling the love. The ridiculous vinyl corset-top with the crappy fake metal has to go. And I still don't like the jeggings, even after they toned them down. The overall look still says, "That'll be $100, and you have to wear a condom."

I'm still going to check out the series when it airs. I think a lot of people will. But I'll tell you, I'm not expecting great things. >> ^longde:

Added an action shot to the post

If I had my way, I'd go with a look something like this or this for the Amazon princess for any TV or film project. The war skirt is reminiscent of ancient Greek and Roman armor, and in the first pic her leggings are sort of like greaves, so they could be improved some. Both her top and the skirt are made from leather, also like ancient armor, and the breastplate, tiara, and belt are made with real metal. This whole look would not be out of place for =w=, because she has worn armor similar to this in the past in the comic series. She looks pretty badass here while fighting that hydra. (The jet in the background also make the image cool.) This look I think would give her a serious appearance while still making her look feminine, and also give the audience a look that still makes them think "Yes, this is Wonder Woman."

Full disclosure: At one time I embraced the new =w= costume, but not anymore. I'm not saying I hate it, but it's been a disappointment. I liked that they were getting her out of her bathing suit costume:



As you can see, on screen it's just too hard to take seriously. So when I saw the new outfit I thought the jacket might have some practical use, like some kind of protection, and the leather pants as well. However it's worked out that in almost every fight the jacket gets torn to shreds. The pants still don't bother me too much, but I prefer the armored skirt. Guess I just don't care for jeggings. The leather-armored approach linked above would have definitely moved her out of the bathing suit while still staying connected to her history.

A million fanboys would crucify me for dissing her bathing suit if this site had a million Wonder Woman fanboys. Too bad. I know that at any given time at least 10% of them are whacking off to images like this anyway. Ha! (I'm down to once every other day. Power Girl gets the days in between.)

If you're wondering about their clothes.. they were celebrating National Jeggings Day.
