Stupid.

Dumb I choose not to use as I think it is rude but if I want to disagree with a post and not give a reason then I will.

What a ridiculous idea.

If you honestly think banning members for using the badges you have provided is a sensible way forward then crack on.

Absolutely laughable.

@Spin - Agree with you but as it stands and is out of my control is the fact they are there, given that situation then I can only do my best and post as above.
This is not the first time this issue has surfaced so it will be discussed in the staff room, as it stands it seems the 'dumb' option causes the problems when the member fails to give a follow up post, this sometimes leads to direct conflict between members which at the end of the day is usually over nothing, we are all adults and like Sintra says, it's just a forum, we should not have to babysit people who cannot accept a negative rating without pulling the thread off topic, there is nothing wrong with questioning such a rating but too often it goes too far.

How about just telling grown arse adults that get upset about a non-thing like a dumb button to grow up?

I disagree.
This is a discussion forum.
The whole point of it, is to discuss things.
Just clicking on the disagree button is not discussing anything.

Those that scroll the screen right handed on an iPhone or maybe android accidentally give dumb ratings as they look through posts. You see this with new members never heard of dishing ‘dumbs’ left right and centre.
Swap the dumb position for the like position and vice versa and the world will be at peace!
(Doubt if it’s that easy to do though)

What’s wrong with the old saying, if you have nothing good to say, then say nothing?.

Because sometimes people need to be told.

Sometimes I will read through a thread and read some utter tosh and give ‘disagree’s’ as I go. If anyone thinks I am going to reply to every one then they can think again. Sometimes other members can separate the good from the bad just from looking at the agrees and disagrees.

One of the reasons I use this and forums, is to learn and keep myself updated with the Regulations.
I assume that others use the forum in the same way.
Just clicking disagree does not help anyone.

In your opinion.

The only thing I’ve seen you use this forum for is to twist and spin regulations and posts to get a rise out of it, otherwise known as trolling

 

[Deleted member 26818]

Yes, that’s my opinion, and it could be wrong.
It might be that some people have an over inflated sense of their worth and want to impose it upon others?

Yes it could be that by clicking on disagree, that poster knows exactly what they have said that is incorrect and will learn their mistake.

I personally have a drink whenever I get a dumb rating.

Saying that it's bank holiday weekend and I'm still sober at 9am, someone help a guy in need eh?
