'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....😂
I’m ok with a well earned DV. To quote Winston Churchill, “You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.”
Opinions by nature will find those who disagree.
My issue is that people can dissent anonymously. I put my (user)name on my opinion when I post. If you’re sure enough in your opinion to take the extra step to DV my opinion, you should at least have to defend your stance if called upon.
You would be surprised of the number of DV's from "members" that have never made a single post so it would be far fetched to get an "opinion" from them. Just another thing to be considered if the DV option continues.
Take the "hidden" aspect out.
Only allow members who have posted to be able to do so.
When you hit the DV it automatically quotes the post and a reply has to be entered before it's registered.
Wishful thinking huh!
Give you one guess where the down vote cold have came from.
My issue is that people can dissent anonymously
This is the problem with the internet in general.
I put my (user)name on my opinion when I post.
Not picking on you but does it really change anything if I get a DV from Mattmd2 vs Unknown?
I cold care less if you DV me either. Usually means I made a funny and you got your feelings hurt
