Unspoken Rules of Posting?
-
Any post by a platinum member, even if it consists of nothing more than a smiley, shall be voted no less than 5.0.
That is the self-enforcing rule! :-D

but anyone could then read them outloud or have a text to speech generator running on the web reading posts. They could now be read.... in fact.... [dramatic pause followed by reading outloud] there. they are now spoken. Of course... this does beg the question.... if a geek says a post outloud in the desert, and no one is around to hear, is he more or less eccentric?

I'm a platinum member and I get one'd back to the stone-age - a lot. Of course, I deserve it most of the time.

Not true, I have at least one 'fan' who likes to give me 1s. Not that I give a damn, anyone who wants to give me a 1 and not respond, is just a retard as far as I am concerned.
