Mine were not, Noodle's were not... and many others.
Some people cheat to get a high rating, should the rating system be destroyed?
P-
Hopscotch = Let's all limit the rec's to ten a month.
Nordleys= Let's do away with the rec counter
Starrman= Let's artificially inflate and abuse the rec system to make
Red and his Clan look like they are abusing the rec system.
RBMorris=Start a thread and complain about Reds excessive amount of rec's hoping to get a bunch of rec's for reporting false information.
Phlabititititititittitit = Let's get rid of rating system
??? (I forget but one of them) Let's close the forums.
Total sum
CARPS= Let's blame the Silent Majority for what we ourselves are in fact causing. The forum is full of gullible idiots we can lie to and they will be eager to join in on the plot because it will make them feel smart and because they will get a thrill out of trying to help convince others that black is white and up is down and evil is good. And when the smoke clears everyone will think we are "Brilliant, Pass me the Guinness."
Conclusion=Don't follow the BFCC herd over the cliff.

I didn't change my mind on anything. You can go back and find a post where I speculated Russ took down the total rec page because of abuse.
What I don't like is limiting our recs to give, and now taking the number away.
P-
Same frickin' thing.
Originally posted by StarrmanI told the story in my little story about the monkeys and the stairs and the banana.
Oh really? How so? Please, tell me how it was before RN came here and 'saved' us all from the doom of the rec system.
Russ acted in response to the fray that RN stirred up, not in response to the nature of the rec system, which is realistically a banal matter of little importance beyond casual debate.
Tell us the great tale of how domineering and ...[text shortened]... system was, I'm dying to hear what terrible tale gave rise to such forcible action from Russ.
How soon we forget.

I would rather help them to solve the conflict and share the toys.
That was never going to happen and you of all people should know that.
There ia a time for peace and happiness and joy joy joy... but if you think that was going to happen after what was said in these forums, then you're even further removed from reality than I thought.
Teddy Roosevelt knew this when he said "Speak softly, but carry a big stick." And sometimes the big stick has to be used. It's a sad fact of life, but there it is.
Why don't we get a mom in here and ask her about the wisdom of trying to "help them to solve the conflict and share the toys". On the other hand, a bunch of unruly children are a lot easier to reason with than most of the guilty ones in this forum.
(This is the cue for someone to chime in with "Can't take a joke, eh?" or "Ever hear of sarcasm?" or whatever the current attention-diverting tactic is.)
Originally posted by SuzianneIt will stop eventually. In the not too distant future, people will forget that the Rec Total ever existed.

The best part about all of this is the users who are whining that this is all the fault of those who complained about the abuse and the bullying rather than the fault of the abusers and the bullies.
