“Stoppit!”

“I dunno Vix - I think they've just invented a new sport - see how big a negative rating you can get. So far anything pro Tesco or anti speed limit goes pretty well. Someone (or more than one)is clearly just sitting there negging all the posts they don't agree with rather than actually engaging in the discussion.”

“Pity there's no "Rating System" for this discussion as I would have offered both of you Kudos.”

“Well on here Kranbook we simply have the option of saying " I Green Arrow that" or "For that comment I give you a dozen Red Arrows!".

Time consuming but atleast me and Dave will know who disagree's with us;)”

“It comes to something when most discussions and comments now descend to discussing red arrows alone. It's to the detriment of debates and distracting, must we have this cowardly Daily Mailesque rating system here?

Some worthy trolls say nothing but pop along to Overdose on a spot of arrowing, it's getting dull and I no longer enjoy posting here. But Hey Ho, I guess that's my lookout, it's sad though, it seems to bring out the worst in some posters in my opinion.”

“Foolishly i thought it was about business rates. I've never deliberately rated anything except for charlespk. My favourite colour is blue, so guess i'm colour blind to ratings.”

“It's turning internet debate into national politics. Eventually everyone will be forced to "say the right thing" just to avoid the red arrows.

Unless we just ignore them of course.”

“I'd like to ignore them but inevitably they become part of it. Ah well, I will attempt to rise above the inconvenience of the secret raters.”
