I think they used it, but in an alternate dimension. People since 2016 remember it because of the Mandela effect.
Just a possibility.

The thumbs down thing has been going on long before YOU came into the thread gambrel.

They have increased a bit since I had the falling out with goad (Ghost). 🙂

I pretty much have a good idea of where they are coming from. Best of it is they don't read it or comment on it just thumb it down...LOL...Kind of childish in my opinion.
