i have just discovered that we can rec people for good ideas, etc etc..

so.. on the other side of the coin, can we "slap" people if they are nasty, or submiting dumb ideas? i think that will be only fair..

what do we think peeps?

Ah, that sting I've come to love.

Seriously though, I think a "slap" system would be a detriment to these forums for the reasons we just demonstrated. It would, no doubt, encourage uncivilized behaviour to an extreme that would most likely see these forums closed.

A good old fashioned snide remark ripe with "industrial language" (thanks PawnCurry 😉) is always an amusing read but I think, generally, we must condone an air of decorum around here. What do you think?

i think then, in fairness, the "rec" system should be removed.

why have one but not the other? where is the balance?

The balance is there. Recs are also handed out for negative, nasty, cycnical and sarcastic remarks. Case in point, look at my total or no1marauder's for that matter. There is a certain pleasure in the giving and receiving of the recs. It's a feel-good kind of thing.

That being said, I wouldn't shed any tears if the system were removed but I like it as is.

you were given recs for funny sacrastic comments, thats good.. they are still positive.. but if some one was truely nasty, or causing trouble for the sake of it, then you'll be able to see that too.. call it "slaps" or "oppose" but i think it will be good to see a balance.. good vs bad..

either way.. am just getting to know the site, so thanks for the input..

here is a rec from me 🙂
