@suzianne saidI’m suggesting no such thing Suzianne.
However, this says nothing about your problem, which is your attempt to shut down the voices of normal users who disagree with you.
As I’ve said numerous times in this thread, I want the thumbing function to remain. What I’m suggesting is that it is enabled for subscribers only so that people cannot use second, third and even fourth or more accounts to abuse it.
This is what Russ was talking about but he also mentioned specifically, banned users.
So tell me, why would you be against my idea of only subscribers being able to thumb posts?

No malice intended but a thought crossed my mind, how much he would want to get you off of the site? 🙂

If so then Russ has every right and freedom to refund my subscription (I.e. cancel me) and remove me from the site.
However, I am an ardent external promoter of this site, I’ve been a subscriber for 15 years and have paid for multiple other subscriptions. I follow the site on Facebook and promote the site to friends and relatives, and I have the site’s best interests at heart.
The question you should be asking Very Rusty, is does Russ give the tiniest shyte about your infantile sense of clan injustice and your forum persecution complex which drives your childish whining.
@divegeester saidI wonder what he thought of your 2020 RANT.....That really helped the site didn't it? 🙂 😛

It seems to fascinate you; you should flag it up to Russ.

Russ, you may have noticed that there has been some debate about this feature and I would like to make a serious suggestion.
The what:
- make the thumbing of forum posts only available to subscribers
The why:
- clearly it is a feature which many members see value in and that value can be commercialised
- the feature is currently rendered largely useless and frequently used as an infantile lever to overheat disagreements in the various forums
- the original intent of the feature is being made obsolete

@ghost-of-a-duke saidOnly red ones. Green ones don’t bother him.
You sure do care about thumbs.
@divegeester saidHas it recently struck you that you need more victims to abuse?

Feel the need to spread the Gospel of Divegeester?
Look at what you typed to VR (not included here). Would you really want your "friends and relatives" to see how you treat people here?

Hear! Hear!
By the way, I've just red-thumbed all of Divestalker's posts in this thread.
I wouldn't want him to think that they're anonymous.
Being such a popular, likable fellow, with hundreds of favorable threads to his credit: He deserves to know which members disagree with his persistent paranoia.
