Thumbs down
|
Has it ever been suggested that there could be a thumbs down option that works like the opposite of kudos?
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them. Impersonation is treason. 
Multiple times. Not gonna happen.

Yes, we even had negative reps once. At the time the staff decided to only keep kudos and positive reps.
Meh. I prefer the old fashioned method of quoting the offending post, then calling its author a c*nt.

I like the positive-only system. It encourages appreciation and gives less opportunities for abuse

To avoid causing a massive forums war that pissed people off, made people rage quit the forums, led to much upset and totally disrupted the discussions and lightheartedness of the forums, I believe. In short, to avoid making this place analogous to Youtube comments. Anyone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong here. 
I'd like to think it would work, but it wouldn't. Especially if banning were attached to a low thumbs up/down ratio. It's one thing to be a constructive poster in a messageboard. It's another to be, well...."cool".

I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay." For context, this is the previous verse: "Hi Jesus" -robvalue RE: Thumbs down

It's an abbreviation for the Continental map in the game Age of Empires.
I love that map I dunno what his problem is. |
