I mentioned that the ratings might not be as usefull in regards to if members could delete posts because if you, the thread starter, were able to delete any flame/insulting posts to help keep your thread from being hijacked and ruined, you would also then be eliminating the ability of most others seeing those nasty posts and having them render ratings based on reading them. In reflection I agree that it would not render the ratings bar useless, but I bet it would certainly drop the number of ratings down a bit.

Lex, you seem to be running near empty too.  If you read my post that you quote, I apologized for my uncalled for remark. Mark me as negative if you wish, it's your perrogative. Thrashing other forum members and calling them names is uncalled for, and Im sure it skirts the forum rules. If you are concerned about my "master race" remarks, I can tell you that I have German heritage in my roots from my Mother's side of the family. I also have Irish roots and Spanish roots, etc. Don't be so uptight.[This message has been edited by avengador1 (edited 08-20-2004).]

Cletus, I have a list too.......... Cletus the Slack-Jawed Yokel is a favorite character among PFF man fans. He is seemingly pulled straight from a comedy routine by Jeff Foxworthy. Below are a few facts about Barrington's redneck named Cletus. He is embarrassed by his birth name Cletus which is why he uses another uncommonn name "Archie". Both names Cletus and Archie are associated with cartoon characters., which is just how Cletus acts much of the time. He owns a auto repair shop working on Pontiac Fieros. He's a member of a Fiero website where he thinks he should be worshipped like a god. He uses valuable time from his auto shop to initiate confrontations regularly if you don't recognize him as a god and the true ruler of PFF. He gets his kicks out of unnecessary confrontations he creates, as his apologist come to his rescue. He's tolerated like a crazy relative that's not too bright, not just right always wanting to fight. |

Of course there are a few who misuse the rating system. But not as many as you think. You forget one thing, and that is that I can see who rated who, where, and why. And 90% of the time it's used for what it is meant to be used for. It really isn't all that surprising that if someone acts like a jackass, he gets negatives. Unfortunately, the one on the receiving end will whine it's because he has an "unpopular opinion" instead.  PS: Wooooot! My first post made in the Trash Can! |

Not whining at all.. Just stating it's obvious that some people actually will vote on people if you, say, don't agree with their political or religious views, no matter how you word it.

Sig Test.

Suddenly and without warning, 84Bill was dragged across the lawn and burried.
Apparently a passing squirrel had mistaken his big toe for a peanut.

I'm still looking forward to seeing you at Fierorama Cletus. BTW you seem to do a lot of traveling Cletus. You must get a lot of sightseeing in, so how does it feel being a tourist? Cletus the tourist or Clet tourist for short. ') [This message has been edited by Mastermind (edited 08-22-2004).]

Wow, Masterbaiter, you've just totally lost it haven't you? You're having a hard time trying to figure out a way to call me names without quoting cartoons aren't you? [This message has been edited by Archie (edited 08-22-2004).]
