Don't bother, Greg. He ignores anyone who isn't baited by him.
You're right, I never noticed that before. I've noticed that he ignores a lot of posts, but didn't notice that the ignored posters were from people he wasn't MasterBaiting at the time.
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.
Someone's fuel tank is running near empty. I guess hate and spite can't fill it up. I don't even know if that last post of yours is breaking the forum rules.

We have a new moderator! All hail the master of the condensending "winkie".
Could this be the result of all their master race experiments? Im sorry, I know that was bad an uncalled for, I just couldn't resist. It is a very bad pun, just ignore me.
Sounds like a racist statement to me... Yeah, all Germans who are athletic MUST be nazi racial experiments.
Funny, you say "We simply ask you to use your own good judgement of what is appropriate or not." And "I know that was bad an uncalled for" What a contradiction.

No, I'm against it because it's a really bad idea. Giving the topic starter the ability to censor out posts he doesn't like? Bad, bad idea. And I really shouldn't have to explain why it's a bad idea because it's so glaringly obvious. And thinking it would render the rating system useless is, well, preposterous.
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.

Poor little Masterbaiter, momma made him stop watching cartoons again & I think He's gonna cry.
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.
Oh Well 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.

He keeps pouting the same thing, poor thing.

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. ')

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?

Dave...
How did I go all this time w/o ever rating you? ANY person that can make me spray Budweiser out of my nose gets a pos... it should be a neg though, bcz bud in the sinuses is VERY painful.
Thanks for making me laugh! and for all you morbid trashcan diggers (like myself)... who have to see if the last post was legit... or just a sig test... Thank you. It makes me not feel so bad when I watch Jerry Springer to make sure I am still not that bad off....
I dont get the "clet tourist" thing.....how is it funny?
Since Cletus aka Archie wants to hit below the belt and give people degrading nicknames, I figure why not return the favor thus Clet Tourist. Sorry if you still don't get it.
Near as I can figure, the joke is Clet = clit and tourist = toris "Clet Tourist" = clitorus. It is weak and a stretch, but I guess when you play in the trash, most anything could be considered amusing, hell I read all the threads here.....guess it comes form being a deprived child.
hehe
