RE: Score Abuse
Hey! check it out. I got a score of -2. No clue from who, or what thread!
I'm ignoring it...

"Let the score thing settle out. Over time it will even out or we will remove it"
Quote RCadmin in post # 20
The following is just a sample of remarks in just two threads concerning the score 'feature':
"Johnny or Susie's paper having a gold star, I am still a little dismayed about that experience"
"Bounce around and give you negatives all day. If I tick a guy off"
" What good is it? None"
"Don,t mean anyrthing"
"Either allow us to see who is scoring us or take the feature off"
"Needlessly take up valuble computer space"
"That score thing can,t do any good"
"Its like a poularity vote"
"I,am ignoring it"
"We don,t need more ammo to degrade each other with"
"It is dumb"
"Has potential for abuse"
"It does not feel right"
"Boy if I really want to be mean"
"My score looks like my rating on NASDAQ"
"Fun if I am mean and don,t have a life"
"I agree its meaningless"
"I call it bogus"
"Just a meaningless number"
"Its a feature that may have bad reprocussions"
"Still think we could do without it"
"Just say one thing wrong and from then on somebody is out to get you"
"I don,t think it will work out too well, without some sort of reason for rating someone negative"
"Still think we could do without it"
"The score thing is bogus"
"Score someone negative because they write more than one line is petty"
"Bet they drop it soon"
"Hopefully Marc will see that and get rid of this ridiculous scoring"
"bet they won,t drop it, its meaningless after all"
"It reminds me of grade school"
And the list goes on, can only urge you to get rid of this abhorent 'feature' Marc that has so much potential to cause so many problems very much like the last days of 'RCO'.
I have no problem with any of the changeover even though I am a computer illiterate and respect all you have done in the past but this feature will be intolerable and certainly precludes any further participation from me. Judge me from my postings or not at all, The same courtesy I would give anybody else.
Thank you
John

I said in My reply, I would like You to stay and continue with you're additions to this site, as usual it seems my posts are ignored. This is the hidden Score rating we have allwas had.
Anyway Change it to what it was meant for, giving respect to members who deserve it
Remove the 0 and the Negative amounts, let it be a 1 2 or 3 rating?
And I don't want you or anyone else to leave, I am hoping BigMax1935 returns as well.

RE: Score Abuse
Who cares!
It is a toy.. Like a toy gun..
Amount of posts is (IMHO) the more important thing, and your avatar..
score the post, not the poster! But we do that already with words!
(Seriously, it is a call for 'pain and suffering' from those who can't or don't take jokes..)
Janet, what about shoes?!?!? I thought shoes were higher on the 'need list' than Chocolate.. [8D]

RE: Score Abuse
Well guys if you dont want to see the scores set your forum preferences to simplified flat and not only will they disappear but the number of visable replies to forums will increase. Only bad thing is avatars disappear too mabey they can leave avatars up in simplified flat but I think I like to see more posts better.
