due to the backlash they would have to deal with afterwards of escalators being attacked.

 

It's a community right? Live and die by your choices. (thumbs u

 

Yeah, right.

 

You've been here long enough to know what kind of flame wars would come about if the "notify" button humper's names were to be made public.

Oh, I know. But maybe it would deter people from just humping a button for a stupid reason if it's public. Obviously a blatant disregard for the rules deserve it, but there are so many button humpers over such stupid trivial things.

 

Ask some of the folks on here what it was like when people could vote on the content of your posts through a star rating system. So just imagine the fights that would occur if someone could see who escalated a post to mods.

 

Mods don't want to have to deal with those problems, along with cursing and political discussions. It would bog them down for hours.

It would prevent button humping of all but real beefs. The vendettas and vindictive humps would still happen but people would create shills to do the humping for them thus eliminating the true value of hump transparency.

This mess really happens huh? People regularly creating shills accounts just because of stupid vendettas or their vindictive? I'm not disagreeing with you. I just think it's comical picturing someone sitting in a basement somewhere saying

"Oh yeah, I'll get him. I'm going to take the time to create a new account just so I can notify the mods of this transgressions. "

 

 

 

There are people here that have gone to far greater lengths for far less payoff, sadly.

A star rating system?! Thank goodness that is gone! Phew! Talk about dodging a bullet!

That's not 3 out of 5 stars, that's 3/5th of a single star. (thumbs u

20 years ago if you told me grown men were going to make up rules as to what books could be sold where, on an on-line chat forum I would have laughed.

 

Wait a minute...I am laughing now.

[Awax]

Maybe button humping shouldn't remain anonymous.

I love this suggestion.

 

no doubt.

+1

 

I always thought there would be some way to tell. This seems that it would definitely eliminate some button humpers.

 

I hump and tell.

I have never humped.

[Plastic Man-Thing-migratio]

I have never humped.

 

You'd think the shear accumulation of reproductive bodily fluids over the years would have compelled you to act before now.

[crassus]

I have never humped.

 

You have to find the button first.

[HarveySwick]

I have never humped.

[THE_BEYONDER]

Good grief

 

 

The anal Asgards of the marketplace rules are annoying, but who friggin cares if the mods move one's thread from G/S/B to mixed? Get a helmet & carry on.

[comicdonna]

the button.

[comicdonna]

Man, it's weird how my post got separated like that.

[Comicopolis]

Why this desperate need to know who notifies the mods about certain posts?
