I've got the most dislikes in forum history...
-
@eclark1849 Oh, what a strange way of doing things. Kind of lets you throw stones from the brush but kisses in full view. Bit cowardly if you ask me.
-
@matb Just cause a user name does not show on the browser page doesn't mean that the admins don't know who that user is. Someone will probably get a quiet warning from the admins.
-
@ghostship Yeah I expect so. I don't like to stifle freedom of speech but that is kinda silly.
-
@ghostship Typical entitled behavior. Small minded people do small minded things.
-
Never let reputation affect you. Ignore it. Just participate for fun, for learning, to help others understand the software better, etc. Reputation up votes and down votes mean nothing to me.
-
I am looking into this.
I can understand down voting some things, but some of the down voting that happened recently appears to rather biased to me as well. I am not real happy about having to waste the last day of the year looking into this.
It would be real nice if whoever did this saved me the time and explained to me why they did so before I waste hours getting to the bottom of it.
So if the person that did this is reading this, save me some time and explain your actions to me in PM.
-
I'll take a look at downvote history. If there is a user constantly downvoting posts, it think such behavior should be penalized in some way. I guess a warning along with a temporary ban would make sense, and in case of repeating this abusive behavior a permanent ban would follow.
Tell me what you think. Agree/disagree or whatever you find is the most appropriate solution.
-
@admin I agree. I think that all this probably happened last night.
-
It is a bit funny I don't have enough reputation to downvote posts :)
-
@admin ROFL, that's too funny!
Actually, my preferred "punishment" for this behavior is to see the ability to up and downvote removed from the forum completely.
It just encourages childish behavior.
-
Wonder what set them off? I'm such a nice guy in real life. :)
-
Well, just found a user with 319 downvotes. (Edit: actually it is 253)
It is an active user, with a decent reputation and amount of posts.
He downvoted many users, but most noticeably Gliterrati and eclark.
-
Personally I'm not in favour of sanctions on a first offence. Big believer in accomplishring more with honey than vinegar.

This post is deleted!

This post is deleted!

@admin lol - I know it was weak! ha ha
-
@matb
I didn't find the last sentence in that post to be funny at all.
I hope you don't mind me deleting the post, it certainly is not constructive in any way.
-
@admin Just so you know, it's really not important to me at all, although I do admit curiosity as to who and why. That said, I don't care if you punish him or not, but seems like you do need to do something to stop anyone from abusing the system in the future.
-
@eclark1849 Freedom of speech and of click is certainly a double edged sword that's for sure Errol! How would YOU handle this if you were the admin?

@admin
@shvrdavid
