I can tell you're not a 'newbie', your comment is unsubstantiated and unconfirmed information. Nice theory mate. 😂😂😂😂😂 I reckon there would be some newbies that have been here long term, those newbies would be the banned members returning under another user name. Have you returned on an alias ? 👍 Edited October 24, 2023 by SAFETY FIRST Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Previously it was at the bottom of the page in small print. It's just been moved to a more prominent position and had the presentation jazzed up a bit.

Previously we could look at your comment, see 82 posts next to your name and see that you have zero likes, we can safely assume that all your posts are time wasting trolls. Conversely, we could previously look at posts others have made and see from their reputation that the majority of their posts have been valued positively by the forum community in general and thus their response is likely to be more valuable and their experience more reliable. Not always the case of course, but if we are to generalise, without knowing, it could be assumed that most of your posts were a trolling waste of time and whatever 'reputation' you had reflected that. What a stupid inaccurate comment written by another of the forums like chasing big heads. 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a forum, everything is up for discussion Well then ignore them as I have. But the reputation score shouldn’t dictate whether a poster is valid or not. Some have been here for years and years with only a handful of posts, others somehow or another probably lost their email password and had to sign in on a new account. And others have been here for a year or two and are well into the thousands 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woof999 Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Ignoring the feature changes, the new style of the forum is somewhat ugly. eg, the AN logo is now way too big and with way too little margin around it. Goes against everything design 101. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its interesting and intriguing to see the reputation of some members. I regularly search members for different things, if I remember George has one of the highest counts and he's been doing it since day one by the looks of his profile. Not far off George was my mate above, transam, huge count 👍 I remember searching for Somchai, the name with Somchai in it had the highest number of banned members.😊 So sorry for making you miserable people more miserable.

Have a nice day 😁 No hate projected. From this perspective, anymore, this site is for the most part for entertainment purposes. It’s difficult to take most of what individuals put out here seriously, unless of course we hear about other members unfortunate fate. Personally I don’t have interest on viewing other profiles here, it virtually has no value for me here in digital land given that people here are diverse and have different perspectives and backgrounds whether true or false. No misery here😃 life is too much of a joy. And from here on out is all a bonus.
