Unsubscribing .
pointless dribble.

Urban Dictionary: attention whore
attention whore
Label given to any person who craves attention to such an extent that they will do anything to receive it. The type of attention (negative or positive) does not matter.

I guess the point is that I don't care what other people say about a thread, if it interest's me, i'll look at it with no regard to a star rating....rather like Craigslist and how viewing for-sale posts always reverts back to "relevant" when what I want to see is the "newest" posts.

Your a bit of a _____

Humpf! Now I hate you!

I hate you too poppy head #2

Swinging On A Star Lyrics - Frank Sinatra
And all the monkeys aren't in a zoo
Every day you meet quite a few

One star for spelling, ALWAYS!

I have the guts to admit it! You asked and got the attention you need! :)

I should not say much - I rarely start threads - but you DID ask!

A 'couple'?

Doc, I don't think anyone hates you.

i gave it a one.
feeling generous.

Who really cares about stars ??

Well... Maybe 3... Ok 4

Oh come on, be honest. You start a thread and maybe your feeling good about it or maybe it's a joke and then you get a 1 star. You gotta admit (if to no one else but to yourself) that it makes you think...

Im loved in Topeka but they really love me in Kansas city.

Sometimes...it's better for a man just to walk away.
But if you can't walk away?
I guess that's when it's tough.

I rarely, rarely even notice the stars. Only a few times have I noticed them attached to my own threads.

I admit I have had some small threads that were immediately 1-2 star rated, and I wholly admit that those threads likely deserved them. I've made some god awful posts here.

Your not alone. This is a place to clear the rubbish and write in stream of unconscience.

Worried about stars? I have to ask you, where's the little girl?

Now that is funny!

I like to give 5 stars

You are a good guy. I give you 5 stars.

Great! We give 5 stars if we like the person instead of if the thread is worthwhile.

p.s. I gave this thread 1 star and I have the guts to say so...

I gave one star.

I don't take note of stars but because of this thread looked back at some of the Red State PARF threads I started.

They all seem to have been given 2-stars.

Most recent thread 1-star.

I don't feel outraged at all, but would like perhaps like to know if the people responsible are even posting in the threads.

Is a star like a post without words?

That does seem a bit cowardly, but not if they are also posting.

RE: Video........................where's the little girl?

Hilarious.

While I have never rated one of your many Red State threads, a person rating it with one star was probably hampered by not have a 1/4 or 1/2 star option. Perhaps a better indicator would be a negative number or even an icon for a black hole.

See, zero stars would work for you in this situation.

And for me too.

I don't want your damn stars!:cool:

I always give my Threads FIVE BIG ONES..stars that is...

I only give 5 stars because this is about participation and not a competition. I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings.

Some of you guys are jerks on line but I have never met one in person.

For that a pass is granted.

If I see 1 star I automatically throw out 5 stars unless the thread is actually terrible, but that's rarely the case.

In 15 years here, I've never noticed the stars unless someone points them out, (usually complaining), such as here. I've never given a star rating.

I have to say that this begs the question, how old are we here? :confused:

speeder this thread got me thinking about that as well, I went and was looking back at my post count and threads and noticed I'm comping up on my 10-year mark soon, and that is just the time registered... there were years where I was a lurker only.

This is my longest running board now. I had done 5-6, even 7-years at old groups/bbs/forums that made their way in the early 2000's but this one is my long haul...

I gave you five stars.:D

Never understood the whole star rating thing though.

Ya mean like someone starting a thread berating a fellow Pelican they were fighting with over in a tech form and being somewhat ambiguous about who that poster was and giving no info as to what the disagreement was about?

I'm 52 but act 15

You're going to have to be less cryptic, I have no idea what you're referring to. :confused:

Hmmm ... I didn't even know the feature existed.
I gave you five stars .... what happens now ?

You get a gold star on your test from the teacher, and the class will call you her pet !

I gave the thread 5 stars. I only star rate threads that someone gives a one star and I give 5 stars.
