I've had my share of little red trolls, so what. Why would I complain about something intangible like that?

I certainly don't boast about getting greens from members. Why would I do that? So why cry and moan about the opposite?

Ya know how important this is?...next time you're at Horton's, the bar, work or just sitting around near other human beings...tell them about how slighted you 'feel' that you were neg-repped, how the bad people are picking on you in some internet forum.

Yeah, thought so.

Anyway, what that means is that the only one making it a federal case is you or me, us. If you are letting some rinkadinck little website marker make you 'mad', you best up your dosage. :lol:

Is this a joke?

You literally just gave me 15 "bad" votes in the last half hour.

You are missing the whole point here, Locutus. Speaking for myself do you really think I give a F**K about being slighted? I think it's a sign of crass ignorance to think most other normal people would feel that way. Forums are for discussion and for learning. If someone has an opposing point of view, that's fine, but don't just disagree to be an A$$hole! I can respect opposing views (I'm not right 100% of the time) but "reds" just block any chance of reaching a reasonable conclusion. Really, I'm amazed you would think we'd be slighted by some idiot with a 4 I.Q.

I was thinking Walter has learned the error of his ways, I haven't had one from him in a coon's age or perhaps he is catching on to how intelligent I am. -:)

No actually, I'm not. You're missing mine.

Yes. Otherwise you'd never say a word.

Same goes for everyone else on the internet. You're not special, don't worry. :lol:

How the hell does someone clicking on a thumbs down "block any chance of reaching a reasonable conclusion"? I'd say that there wasn't a chance to begin with if a lousy little icon can stop it from happening. :roll:

I'd say you have it wrong as to who has the IQ of 4. Look in the mirror booboo, the ones with the low IQ are the ones bitching about getting a thumbs down, not the ones handing them out.

I guess you and I will have to agree to disagree on this one, Ger, but I'll defend your right to your misguided opinion! -:)

Yeah they are pretty rare now. Probably been a few months since the last time.

We need a down vote button for entire threads.
Or we could just not worry about it and go on with life ignoring the d1ckheads like IRL.
