Hahaha OrcaTorch, so cool to see you sporty and humoristic, a new breed of manufacturers has risen!
Say SB, not being rude but since you are working on BLF anyways, maybe remove all those sticky reviews, I mean the sticky not he reviews, the search functions very good so people can find old reviews easy. Where reviews from 2013 are less relevant now so why sticky them?
Oh AMD I send you a digital aspirin to counter your now newly popped up headache
Regarding the reviews, I usually prefer to create a sub-category for reviews in the most popular sections. I’ll try to get around to doing that pretty soon here.
I’m the proud owner of 6 on the rudeness scale. It was 7 yesterday after I posted an emotional comment about the massacre in Florida by a deranged ISIS sympathizer. I guess I did go a little overboard with my anger, or did I?
Personally, I consider swearing to be rude no matter the emotional level or the amount I agree or disagree with what you said. I’m sure a few of those 7 came from that alone. fyi
swearing or racist posts will be my primary use of the “Rude!” button.
They remain. Since the rudeness counter can’t trigger automated account blockage, it’s not really a problem per se if the counter is temporarily high. It’s mainly intended for the majority of our members that really do care about getting along with others, so they can be aware of how their posts are being perceived by others and make amends if necessary.
I have not marked anything “rude” yet, so it wasn’t me. But I did read the post you are referring to and considered trying out the feature. What you did was a general rules violation, not necessarily rule #1, but it was all the others. I decided against pressing the button. But some people did and you have been inquiring why ever since. That’s why.
The last thing I want to do is to offend anybody. I realize sometimes my emotions get the best of me when it comes to violence towards innocent people, especially in the name of religion. I’ll do my best in the future to control my emotions without swearing.
If Swearing is rude lol I’d suggest never take a holiday to certain parts of Australia lol! We have some of finest bogans in the world. (red necks or yokels) which ever you prefer lol
I didn’t click the ‘rude’ button but for whatever it’s worth, when I saw a candidate’s talking point — a controversial one —
I thought that might not work well in this thread where people are asked to stay nonpolitical.
Talking points will only get harder to self-filter til the election, as what seems obvious to one of us may seem mistaken to someone else.
There’s no “backing away slowly with no response” button.
