  • The ability to pettily go through and "dislike" all of a person's posts are not conducive to any board. Like it, great. Don't like it would be fine, but when it is abused, it's wrong and petty. A new person posted about having negative rating, so I went to all his posts and put thumbs up. Nothing he posted should have been a dislike. I have watched my own rep go down a lot lately, and it is ridiculous and obvious that it happens to the most innocuous posts. Please consider removing that option.

    If someone posts something abusive, report it. But to get your panties in a wad and indiscriminately just thumbs down... idiotic, immature, and again, not conducive.

    And btw, it's easy to tell if someone downvoted. If you have 0 or 4 stars, you can hover and see who liked it. Guess what, if you have 3 people but only 2 likes... someone disliked it. So it isn't paranoia... I can see a couple of other members also targeted even on innocuous posts.

    The legal clause in our rules around content is pretty standard for most dynamic content public user forums to protect the owners from any legal claims related to content rights. This forum gets indexed by many other sites, so content ends up showing up on the other sites without our consent and we don't want to be dealing with each site that decides to copy our content. If anyone has concerns about ownership of any content you are about to post in a public forum, just know that it may get redistributed to another place without anyone's knowledge or permission, so if it's a concern please don't post it and save us all some trouble.

    Hi there, I followed these steps and am still receiving emails from this forum. Can an admin/moderator please remove my member account completely. I haven’t used this forum in 15 years and don’t really wish to receive any information. Thank you in advance.
