Stop posting things that people dislike.... lol
Tiger needs a safe space
 
If you would like it defined, see any post you've made in the last several months. You know exactly what it is, and who knows for what reason. GTF over yourself and your prior purchases, or GTFO. Grow up.

Wow @Bruce , that last post sure does not seem like a deescalation. I hope the suggestion of banning was not just message board foder...
 
Ah, my first dislike. Couldn't have come from a better asshole.


Cheers.
 
I’ll solve this problem by hiding his posts like everyone else... he can continue to follow and dislike my posts if he wants.... reminds me of that episode of Black Mirror where people are rated by their peers :winkingthumbsup"

Well @Bruce @Julian [USERGROUP=3]@Administrative[/USERGROUP] I believe the above post violates the ORRO...and definitely not a descaltion after it was instructed to do so...
 
I'd like to keep my scales, if at all possible.
 
I'm really lost as to whom the "instigator" referenced truly is. Seems as if there are multiple here....
 
Every dislike I have is only from him :thumbsup:

In turn, he is the only one I have ever “disliked” a post. Everyone else on here is super positive and post helpful non antagonistic things. It is what it is.
 
I think the bigger question to be answered here is why the “bummer dude” rating counts as a negative?

I’ve got two and it’s really keeping me awake at night.

I interpreted 'bummer dude' as more of a "That sucks". learned my lesson, lol.
 
Darn it. Now I’ve got three.


@KyleP I’ll re rate your post optimistic if you change my “bummer dude” rating. And I’ll throw in an extra like on another post.

No post ratings count as Negative. Bummer Dude (and even dislike) counts as a "Neutral" rating....you don't get points for it, but you don't lose points either.

Now what would be good is if there was a way to set it so that for every "Dislike" you give, you lose points from your own count! But alas that isn't an option.

Haha deal :winkingthumbsup"

So a thumbs down counts as a neutral rating as well?

Correct....we didn't want it to be used as a weapon....so it is completely neutral....the intent for dislike is if someone posts:

"I love liver and onions"

You could "Dislike" and not offend the member by reducing their post rating score. Furthermore, we KNEW people would use it to dislike other peoples content...so likewise...no impact from that either.

"I love liver and onions"
Oh for God's sake. Would you mind picking on something else than liver and onions?!
I actually love liver and onions.
I do.
