You didn't chase EB off the site, he did that to himself.

Thanks for stating the blatantly obvious.

REALLY? Then why did your pal fmf say he was a part of the reason EB is gone?

In fmf's own words: Thank you for the observation. It was me, in part, anyway, who chased Executioner Brand off the site.

Because someone was successful in lobbying for thumbs to be removed once the thread is closed.

If you are unable to effectively “lobby” for implementation of your ideals, icons and buzzers in a place like this, then how do you propose to change the reprobate minds of those dragging your nation into the lake of sulphur fire and brimstone?

I like to call it the gooster rule.

And you had better get used to it Rainman.

Today, it is exactly 5,000 days since I got my first anonymous thumb down for a General Forum post. I firmly believe, even to this day, that it was Suzianne.

We didn't have thumbs 5000 days ago, we had recommended posts which were worth reading. Thumbs ruined all that when they came.

Oh no, we’ve been caught red handed FMF!

Hear hear.

Thumbs will be gone soon too.
You heard it here first!

I suggest you contact Grandehomme, Rutter and McFee (LLB, SQE, LPC), head office in Islington, London, about this matter laying out the facts of the case, as you see them, including a postal order so that you will receive a formal reply.

And, of course, this thread has nothing to do with attention-seeking.

Correct but this one does!

That "someone" was perhaps Grampy Bobby.

"Perhaps" it was Santa Claus.

I don't.

You said someone was successful in lobbying for thumbs to be removed once the thread is closed. I think it may have been Grampy Bobby [who received more red thumbs than maybe any other poster]. I don't think there is a forum contributor called Santa Claus.

Let me be perfectly crystal clear and audible on this, since you persist in gaslighting everyone.

It was @divegeester, and, by association, you.

In fact, both of you are on record as wanting thumbs to disappear entirely.

I made some thumbs disappear from a thread?

You are mistaken. I did not lobby for thumbs to be removed once threads are closed. I am not "gaslighting" anyone. Perhaps someone has "gaslighted" you with a bum steer masquerading as a "fact" in a PM? Assuming anyone actually did lobby for thumbs to be removed once threads are closed, it wasn't me.
