Rinse gave me a negative rating because “I can’t have a conversation without name calling”….yet he does it all the time.
The jab saved people ? No proof…. Lots of proof of the jab killing people. Jake is right, fauci never cured anybody….creates a money making product that prolongs a persons life is not a cure.
It’s time we ignore these guys and don’t give them any kind of control of our actions…..it’s a game to them.
Boohoo….you got called a name….we’re you harmed ? Bleeding ?
I could be wrong but I haven’t seen any of those guys contribute any meaningful content to the rest of the forum…. I don’t post a lot but have been on here for a few years reading mostly tech stuff.

My my.

You do a lot of in-depth seeking but you can't see.

No, PhatMax. I didn't give you a negative rating. I haven't ever given you a rating. I seldom use the member rating function, and when I do, it's really only for the most peculiar of reasons. I think it's important for some other sections of the forum, where technical discussions or buying and selling is done, but for Totally O/T and Politics & Religion, I don't have (hardly) any use for the rating system.

I guess from time to time, a forum spammer has been "auto-banned" without inconveniencing Cliff Pennock, but that's the only positive thing I have to say about the rating system.

I don't understand how someone with no ratings bar can state with any authority whatsoever that a particular forum member rated them one way or another? It's next to impossible to do this even when there is a ratings bar to go by!

I can't see an opening for my doing any serious city governance "work" on Pennock's in the foreseeable future.

I remember scrolling through an article not too long ago, and the gist of it was that the city of St. Louis is being screwed over in some particular way by the State of Missouri. But I don't remember any of the particulars. Maybe it was about Medicaid. Maybe it was something else. I just made a small attempt to see if I could find it with Google, but that didn't turn up anything.

I found that article. I thought of a different way to search for it. I'm just going to post it in my usual format. Maybe I'll come back to this at some as yet undefined but not too distant future moment.
