Hi Creme, I see 5 -'s, not 18, & 40 +'s on you ??  I don't think you deserve any -'s.  I don't think any of us deserve any -'s, we are all just stating our opinions.  So lets just think of the -'s as an opinion, & really whoop it up when our +'s go up !!  What do you think??    ;D

Holy cow, your right....?????????  I wonder what happened?  Weird...OMG, am I going absolutely bonkers...I could swear there were -20 there...honest...or else I'm seeing things???????

I don't think anyone deserves them either Anna, to be penelized for your opinion?  Wrong...however, it never really bothered me, until I saw it go up drastically within the last few weeks...and I think I know why, however, I'm zipped...

and yeah, your right...absoultely!  Thanks

QuotePostscript  For all I know the person who gave me mine was a big ugly guy who lives in his Mom's basement and has no friends so he masquerades as a lady on the web ;)

LOL.... ;D ;D

Creme, maybe our web wizards got out their magic wands &  made them disappear, or maybe they were never there!!  LOL.    :D :D :D

they were to there, I saw them... :o  course, I may not have had my glases on?   :-\     ;D

That was Kirk-The-Webmaster with his Magic Wand. No one gets to do persecution on our Website!  ;D ;D

(I just picked a -5 because 1 every 500 posts seemed reasonable.  ;D )

Sending love and Pings for all of the wonderful work you do here, Creme!

Luise - you should ask Kirk to make your minuses disappear too.  You are our Angel!

Well, that is sweet!  :D I think minus points may just "come with the territory" for me  because it is my site. I have to step in every once in a while, as you know. However, if anyone ever targets me like that...poof!!  ;D

Now I'm back in the saddle again...

hugs and sending many thanks to you both...

No one caught my bad math!  A minus 5 is one every 250, not every 500. I would have made it a zero if Kirk hadn't ask me what a realistic number was.

And by the way, I am still laughing over the ugly guy living in his mother's basement, pretending to be a woman and posting here! What a great description of the possibilities of cyber-reality!  ;D ;D ;D

I did wonder Luise but my math is abysmal, my scholastic talent lies solely in the English language side of things, so I ignored the strange feeling that the math was out and relied upon my ignorance of things mathematical :)

It's something of a comfort to imagine a sad little ugly man living in his maternal basement dishing out negative points don't you think?

I wonder if the ugly-man-in-basement's mom posts here too? Unbeknownst to each other? That would really be funny ;D

someone, Anna, who is really unhappy/mean apparently holds a lot of water with these miuns points...why would you even think about using them to begin with?  Personally, it some disgrunted person who really gets off on hurting others?  And I hope that Kirk can do away with them...
they are being used inappropriately...yes, I can see how people can disagree with someone else's posts...however, to give someone a minus b/c of it, is so immature...

That's my take?

Hmmmmm, another minus, & this time I really can't see why I got one.  My posts recently have been positive & upbeat.  At least I've been trying really, really hard to be positive & upbeat!!  I don't mind the -'s, but this time, I feel I really didn't deserve one.  But...yiippeeeee, my pluses have gone up too!!  :D

Hey, Anna, me too! I didn't even notice until you mentioned it. It's hilarious, actually. Just like with my DIL, someone "just doesn't like me." Boo-hoo, I'll go eat worms  :P
