What's the deal Antigates

Why are you low rateing all those threads?

These stupid ratings stars are going to cause more trouble than the posting rank stars…

I agree, the ratings function is going to cause more trouble than the stupid stars ever did, because some people (not necessarily AG) just hate everything and will pee on the cornflakes just because they can…

Bergie can we trade in the ratings for an image icon in the toolbar?

Chad, my dear friend, what is it you wish to protest? Do you feel that I alone sould not be permitted to vote? Or is it that you disagree with my particular position on these matters? Maybe you just felt like taking a few shots at someone, …and found me most conveniant?

Say it aint so??..

Actually, if you really need to know, I’ll have to tell you why later, I’m running a little experiment, and don’t want to spoil the results…OK? (I’m not the only one voting the way I am, you’ll notice)

Why did you Post the Same thing for 3 Times? Antigates?

Most of the time when you see a double (or triple) post it’s due to an unresponsive computer or server at the time.

LOL!! I sure wasn’t “star chasing” [xx(]

As far as the “multi” s go, the admins might have some tweaks they need to do on “flood control” or the like.

I did have 2 episodes earlier where I tried to access this forum and my browser just hunted and hunted and hunted, never resolving this site. So immediately afterwards I tried to access another, and went right to the other forum. Suggesting the problem might be at trains.com as opposed to elsewhere.

There are some issues here.

OK, does anyone really care about this thread rating? Does someone clicking a little star on a thread really mean anything?

My personal opinion, I don’t care. I wish people would grow up and not be so materialistic (only way I could think of to describe it)… Stars this, rating stars that, its not worth getting your BVD’s in a bunch over…

Just my 2 cents, take it or leave it, no flames please.

+1

Think of it as something to do on a slow news day. Just another toy to tinker with…

I would like to protest against riseing gas prices, overcrowded beaches, and lack of freight trains in San Diego county !!!

You alone should not be permitted to vote. I totaly disagree with your position. And yes I wanted to take a few shots at someone and found you to be a good target. How do you like me now

Actually someone turned me on to the fact that you can see who gave what rateing and I was pokeing around and noticed that everybody was giveing out medium to high rateings and you were passing out low rateings. I was curious as to what gives, especially sience you lowballed two of my threads.

But if your running some sort of covert mission…well…good luck with it.

You know AG…

…as the poster you can delete those extra posts, I’ve done it a few times now thanks to the not-so-hot new format. Guess it will be a while till the bugs are all sprayed with e-Raid.

YES SIR!! (done)

I think it’s funny that this post got rated too.

Time to lighten up…it is an internet forum after all…[(-D]

I think you’re preaching to the choir here. Perhaps you should take this suggestion to one of those Dave (FM), Michael, Ken arguments…er uh…threads.

Then again over there your suggestion would be scrutinized, twisted, misrepresented, debated and you would probably end up getting insulted.

Must have been some kinda inside thing. Anyway, chad, those are the best smilies on this forum.

Doghouse, I didn’t get them from trains, they came from here:

http://cl.acurazine.com/forums/misc.php?do=getsmilies&wysiwyg=0&forumid=158

10-4. You gave me the web address before, but I still don’t know how to transfer them from the site to this forum. Me no goodie wif kompooters.

Here is how to do it.

1 select a smilee and with your curser over the image left click on it. That opens a window…

2 In that window select properties at the bottom of the window.

3 Another window will open with the URL. Highlight the URL.

4 Then copy the URL and C keys at the same time.

5 Go back to the post and paste the URL, and V keys at the same time.

6 add the img tags before and after the URL like this:

{img}http://www.acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/confused.gif{/img}

only use instead of { }

It’s easy once you get the hang of it.
