You're alright Teddy.
Don’t make me blush...
Internet communication is already sheltered enough making people keyboard toughs.
More importantly I think that the quality of this Board remains great.
5 DV on a post hides it. You can still see it if you click it though.
If you start a thread and it gets 5+ DV without any UV it starts to sink
and I’m not sure how the scoring thing works, but I believe you lose part of your point total when you get a DV and once you get into negative points you can’t start new threads or something
You wear **** shoes. Sorry it's hard to come up with good insults after a long night.
You don't or at least didn't lose points with a down vote you actually gained.....since we as mods don't get real points anymore I cannot say it has changed since the upgrades
At least I wear shoes can you say the same?
Downvoted just because. I stand behind it. Y’all are concerned with someone who you don’t know and their opinion of you? C’mon guys, this seems like millennial type stuff.
I'm not a fan of allowing the identities of those who DV to be hidden.
Most of the DVs I see fall into one of two groups. One is posts which I think most everyone would want to DV. The other group contains good posts; I don't understand why anyone would DV any of them.
To me it's rude to DV a reasonably made post just because I disagree with the poster's opinion.
I think we should generally encourage one another to post in a friendly environment.
I'm even willing to be nice to fans of the swamp varmints.Well, let's not go to extremes here.
Go, Dawgs!
My point is this is all much ado about nothing. We spend an inordinate amount time debating the logistics of downvotes which are ultimately meaningless.
Id be fine if we got rid of all voting, the value here is in the discussion and analysis.
Sign #1431 that football can’t get here soon enough.
'C’mon guys, this seems like millennial type stuff.'
Makes me feel young again.
Hey Im a millenial, bring on the downvotes and abuse clicks! I can show everyone where my last **** to give went.
Now you are talking. People abuse the DV by voting down opinions with which they disagree—not really the intent.
I wish the option would go away. A flag for moderation is all that’s necessary. Maybe five flags hides the comment until moderation.
Might shock you to know I cold care less about DV or who is giving them
In fact when I get a bunch of them it usually tells me I am on to something.
I’d like to think that those of us(myself included) who are regulars are ok with getting DVed. Certainly doesn’t bother me anymore. But, for newer people or people who frankly don’t post anything worthy of being DVed it might be nice if the random DVers weren’t anonymous.
Then again, a lot of that could be fat fingers on mobile. 🤷♂️
"I could care less" means that you care something. May have meant 'Couldn't care less'. Next sentence shows that you do care something.
Just mentioned the "fat finger" in another thread. So true.....
the correct quote is he cold care less. When he's cold, he's careless I think
Ahhh and Kasey's weekend starts....😂
