it is just abused and makes people think they are gods. I hardly even post anymore cuz there is not ONE thread that isnt F'ed up with that +1 crap.

Yeah I think it sucks that people get -1 from everyone just because of who they are, even if what they are saying at that second isn't completely retarded

I don't know why it's such a big deal? In the end, it doesn't matter. Those who constantly rate the same person negatively end up getting a poor score themselves. I have the algorithm all figured out I just haven't implemented it yet. Just because someone gives a post a -1 doesn't mean you have to make a big deal out of it.

no but its freaking annoying. cuz most of the time the post is blocked for no good reason at all. Just because some stupid baby didnt hear what SHE wanted to.

You realize you can still read those posts that are rated low enough to be auto-hidden, right?
Anyways, I can probably work in an option to bypass the ignore threshold, a setting you'd be able to select in your account preferences.

I see your point in this, it only bothers me when a post gets a -7 or something like that and I have to click "view anyways" on every other post, it gets old
When I see posts with negatives, that don't deserve them. Most of the time I just give them a positive just to even it out some.

I agree with SS on this one. Giving blanket - to individuals just because you don't like them regardless of their input to the topic at hand is extremely juvenile. I assume we are on this forum to help each other with sleds, to talk about and discuss the sport we all enjoy. I also find it annoying to have to click "view anyway" because of the "junior high school" type mentality of some of the posters here. I think we need more snow.

Are you saying that the content of my posts does not meet your expectations for forum content? Are you saying that I receive negative ratings? What about my posts has offended you (or anyone) to get a negative rating? I post a lot here, hopefully sometimes someone is able to gain some useful information from my experience. I thought that was the point of the forum. Am I mistaken?
Please, enlighten me, so that I, too, may be educated.

I just think the + and - system takes away from what this site is supposed to be about, people talking and discussing something we all love. Turns it into a big fag party where little boys are trying to see who can bitchslap each other the hardest

its a good system that is abused by a few. i know that some people will give a few members a - just because of who they are not due to content which is annoying, but if its not one of the of "damned" members with -'s then the post normally deserve the -'s.

All I ever seem to see is on here is bitching from little girls....To much immaturity, too many -1's, christ!!! Can I get you some cheese with that wine? To even start a topic like this is totally gay. DON'T BOTHER REMINDING ME THAT IT'S OFF TOPIC. Just think beforehand. Does this topic really need to be in here? What will it prove/change?

I really like the feature in the performance tuning shop area. If I see a post that is way wrong (someone helping diagnose someones sled when they do not have a CLUE).. it is very easy to rate it a negative instead of quote it and tell them they are wrong.
In the same respect, I see one I like, it gets a plus. Really helps out the thread starter as to who to listen to.
People abuse it at times also. For no reason at all you can get a negative. Example, the other day I think I welcomed someone to the forum. I got a negative. I am sure the reason is that I am a moderator and I closed someones posts at one time and they got cranky about it. But I guess that stuff is unavoidable unless their privledge is taken away.

agreed that in some places its abused, but it seems to work the way it was intended for the most part.
If you dont post cause you're scared of a neg. number then your post probably wasnt worth posting anyway.

i think the negatives are funny. even when i get a negative i still get a little chuckle out of it.
although it is kinda sad to see everything brp says gets a negative.

Some people get a lot of negatives because of their reputation from giving bad information and just plain being ignorant. I dont feel sorry for those people because they brought it all on themselves.
