Threatened? Pffft... How About the One Star Club?

I know Paul and I are card-carrying members, so who else?

I'm relatively sure it's not the same sniveling, simpering little weasel that has been threatening people, since our status was gained long before the threats started. We do, however, wear our one star with more than just a bit of pride. Anything we can say to annoy or upset the hand-wringing ninnies out there, especially any of the caliber that count their one star ratings as some sort of victory, is a tick mark in the "winners'" column.

Definitely, one MUST be right wing to qualify for a consistent one star....

Yes, and they will stalk you in other areas of PP and 1 STAR you...

When you see someone with a new 1 Start thread, look who has visited there profile that hates Conservitives, one name appears (yes, I checked after a rash of 1 stars one every thing I posted, on all the board on PP I post on..) to be visiting us.. Unlike Smikes cyber stalker, looks like we have a real one..

You know, I spend a lot of time on PP and in OT, but I never look at the ratings.

Do you? Really?

When you have something listed on the classified threads people look.. If it was only in PPOT, then it wouldn't matter, but when they stalk your post out of PPOT then it can have an effect, especially since there have been people ripped off on the for sale boards..

What sort of OCD person actually looks at the star rating anyway?
It's not like it is a movie review or something.
