Ken must also be Nostradamus as the account was created in November 2014.


Hey Ken when will Freo win a flag???


Actually, that is an answer I already know. Never..



How about when is Jesus returning? Or when will Mark change his avatar?

Imagine our surprise to find an individual who's sole purpose was to red thumb people. From memory, over 2000 red's issued, and about 3 greens.



In a retail environment when something dose not sell you do not stock it so can we get rid of the green-thumb and keep the red-thumb!

Well one thing for sure, with no red thumbs anymore, Markie wont be the number one "thumbed" person on social media now. lol

The Kardashians were getting nervous.



Personal attacks yet again ..............
And you wonder why the red thumbs got binned. You would be the one with 2000 reds dished out and hardly ever gave a green I bet.
Talk about watersports and OT stuff in a friendly manner. How hard is it...?

As much "fun" as it would be, it dredges up too much bad memories!

One of the all-time most red-thumbed members created a new login, and posted with a completely different attitude, and is now well liked. That'll get you guessing!

Haha - or from Metallica - "You can do it your own way, as long as it's what I say".

As evidenced by many of the previous posts, plenty of people have suggested via email and forum posts to get the red thumbs removed as they reckoned it was ruining the forum experience. We've held out against this for many years, but finally decided to give it a go & here we are. The "democratic" pressure of peoples voting against the red-thumbs has always been present.

So, yeah - we always listen to comments & ideas.

Can you remove the red arrows in the weather forecast as well?
It must be offensive to the wind since I've noted that everytime there is some red arrows, there is no wind.

How did you know he is now well liked versus before.... ahhh more green thumbs than red thumbs....

In the new world there are no red thumbs and everyone is universally liked, even those that aren't.

Better not lift that veiled curtain. We all might figure out that we have really been talking to our alter-egos.

Why are we letting the nanny state take over. Nothing wrong with some healthy criticism. Bring back the red.

I also like the idea of identifying who red or greened thumbed

It will only happen when Laurie notices revenue is declining, ie: less members loging in.

But then again, it could bring in more people, real people, people that don't go around bullying and harrassing.

I think if you disagree with something, you should explain why you disagree, that way people can evaluate your criticism.
A red thumb serves no useful purpose, it's impossible to tell what is not liked and why, so nothing can be gained by it.

A green thumb on the other hand doesn't need to be specific, it's indicating an overall agreement or just pleasure in the post.


Well said mate
