    If you look at the voting patterns (ie leckey always gets 5ed, you 1ed), you'd realize that you're stating a minority opinion of 1. She's got a better swing with a cluebat than most of us, so we're content to let her beat the idiots around. A word of friendly advise. You've dug yourself a very deep hole in terms of how you're regarded over the flood of junk posts to get your rank up.* The only way you're going to recover and get any respect from the rest of CP is with an extended period of well above average posts. *even if that wasn't your intent when you were dumping posts all over the place a few weeks ago, that's the way it was percieved and no ammount of 'no I wasn't' posts will change that. They'll only dig you in even deeper.

      The only reason off leckey getting 5's is that she is a gold member. second if it come to me i don't care about the ranking so i don't care about the number of posts and even i was intrested in getting higher ranks i would wrote articles not posting here in the lounge. for me i only care for the emails i receive from CP and the information they contain. that is the soul purpose for me of joining CP. At the end if you looked at my posts at the begining couple of weeks ago you would see that i was having real serious questions but some CP members like leckey for example turned my posts into another subject.

        Hmm... how to get along with others, an age-old problem... Hey! D'you know what doesn't work? Calling people names and trying to make friends with others based solely on the perception that you share a common enemy. Wanna know why? 'Cause then you look like a jerk. And it doesn't matter how much trash-talking your foe engages in, your own bad behavior doesn't look any better in comparison. I hate to break it to you, but no-one searches the forums looking for reasons not to think the person tossing out insults is a troll. Every time you do this, a few more people read your posts for the first time and form a poor opinion of you as a result. A history of bad behavior sticks with you. Why do you think CSS gets voted down so quickly?

            Can we keep the flames out of the lounge? I know you guys love to have a stoush now and again but it seems the whole tone lately has degraded to the point where anything anyone on the outer says is slammed. It adds a whole level of snippiness to the Lounge that's making it less enjoyable to read.

            cheers, Chris Maunder

                              leckey is gold? I didn't know that. :doh: But it does illustrate that we don't discriminate (the voting system, I mean)!

                              So the creationist says: Everything must have a designer. God designed everything. I say: Why is God the only exception? Why not make the "designs" (like man) exceptions and make God a creation of man?

                                    The Digital World. It is an amazing place in which we primitive humans interact. Our flesh made this synthetic machine. You see, we are so smart, we know a lot of stuff. We were grown from cells that came from the universe, which the matter and physics I'm typing in it is amazing how the universe is working. Human life is very amazing. How I experience this sh*t its like wow.

                                          To clarify (without flaming), I am on amphetamines that are prescribed by a board certified doctor for my narcolepsy. They are not black market, illegal, nor am I addicted in any way. However, I do feel that after upper CP members posted their feelings on flamings in the Lounge, your response perpetuates the problem.
