Green or Red Thumb if you give one you should be able to see who's it from , or do you pro red thumbers still want to remain anonymous ? so you can click and giggle and not get caught.
Those 4 pages on the bring back red thumbs post was a pile of dribble.Also agree with Angie if you want to post or thumb put up your real name in your profile.
I've no problem with thumbs, but stand by your thumb be it red or green, put name to them, No aninomity! (buggered if I can spell it)
Had the flame suit on doggie lol Hear what your saying but you don't see red on the other forum says somthing about the people.
bring on real names and contact details to make people accountable for the gold
or crap
that they post
also - a 3 post per day policy - to stem the
dwellers / diluters / time wasters
who really need to get a life (red thumb that!)
and shoot / ban anyone with over 595 posts
and a 1 week ban for spelelling errors.
2 week ban for the misuse of "of" and "have"
3 week ban for "there" and "their"
and finally
- a breathalyser attached to every keyboard to stop "drink posting"
Both, or none! Fair enough we want the 'good vibe' posts, but like life - you can't go through it without all the emotion. As for animinonmity...if you remove that, you will start bad vibes between some members (or should that be more bad vibes...?)
I actually don't mind wondering "who red-thumbed me?" It keeps me guessing. As for green thumbs, I don't want to know who likes, or dislikes my posts.
i would like to see no thumbs.
if you can be bothered to read a forum- say something, but be reasonable about it.
i'm ok with the way it is
I'm amazed that red pixels cause such controversy
They mean so much to people - negativity, bad vibes, manipulation, bullying, corporate bullies - WOW
Its a friggen red thumb, outside of here it means nothing, nada nil zilch.
If you ring up the counseling hotline and say "i got a red thumb" they won't know what the fk your on about.
I say bring back red and stop being so precious.
If you want Legion back then we want BP
An amazing story of a site just a little busier than this one, and the trials and tribulations they faces, and the result.
They peaked at 400 moderators ...

Some of you blokes simply don't get it do ya
The point of this fuss was,why is THIS forum
THE ONLY forum without red thumbs.
and as Laurie mentioned earlier today,you can't handle the truth
Swanie buddy your not calling me a troll are ya
Seriously tho,I remember a time when some dudes got red thumbed for
anything they said,sh-t even me can you believe that
I have no issue with those who troll the site and stick their head up and speak their mind. Just don't like anonymity of the thumbs.
"Log in as a registered user:
I know, this sounds obvious but, "Anonymous Coward" does not have a karma rating. You can't reap the perceived benefits of your own accidental brilliance if you post anonymously. Have pride in your work and take credit for it."
The above is a quote from the slashdot moderation page. Pretty much sums it up I reckon. I dont care if you disagree, its a free world after all, but at least have the decency to disagree publicly and not hide behind the red thumbs. Its not about being precious or the need to harden up, its about being honest. The truth is best told face to face followed by a handshake and then a beer or three. Its the Australian way, running round hanging sh..t on people behind their backs belongs somewhere I dont want to live.

I'm confused (yeah so what's new).
Do give Laurie a green thumb if I want red thumbs back or a red thumb if I don't want red thumbs back?
Bring back the biff! I mean red thumbs!
