in the nonliteral buttkissing sense.

Why is it that people feel the need to shmooze and stroke "higher-ups"? I see enough of it at work, then get to see more of it here. At work, it may get you some ill-deserved reward. But what in the aitch do people expect to receive here, for their exhaggerated praise and head to foot bowing? Ick.

Who are the "Higher Ups" here? The admins? The moderators? Higher rated players?

What are you blathering about? Has nothing to DO with when I did or didn't see it. It is this enthusiastic, har-har-har, good-one, rec-rec-rec attitude.

So what you are griping about is the way the RHP culture is developing.
