If members are concerned of a thumbs down on one of their comments, they can be removed.

 

This members thumbs down was removed.

 

 

Getting a thumbs down on a factual, non contentious post is indeed ridiculous. I have had it happen when I've given advice on a thread (where to get a re-entry permit at the airport). But crying to the mods to have it removed is even more ridiculous if you ask me. Just ignore them, why do they trouble people so much.

A few little coloured pixels and they get grown men in a tizz.

Perhaps the thumbs downers are having cognitive dissonance/difficulties and are unable to distinguish.

What is it with these people on AN that lurk in the shadows, waiting to pounce with a thumbs down

I enjoy receiving them, I regard them as a badge of honour, knowing I've triggered a grumpy dude. 

I received over 50 on one of my comments recently. 

 

You got to understand, the thumbs down stalkers are nasty, horrible, old men, sat behind their keyboards, day in day out. They don't have a hobby or life, probably married to a smelly, ex bar girl.

 

I'm very different to these members.

I'm a happy person, not bitter or nasty, I'm not on the age pension, I don't complain, whinge or whine about Thailand. 

 

I generally choose to only interact with the article, OP or when I receive a hostile comment.

Yeah - but if you are getting a lot of Thumbs down emojis - i.e. more than 5 to any one post, its not due to stalkers and suggest a lot more about the content of your post than anything else.

Odd comment, considering most of us retirees are living lives in Thailand that most western people can only dream about.

I was involved in social care for the elderly in the UK, and mostly their lives were very basic, lonely, cold, even those that seemed to have plenty of money. Now, 20 years later I'm their age and I don't suffer like they clearly did.

Warm climate helps people. Most farangs look bored though.

In other threads haven't you claimed you were a teacher ? and another that you were  journo and had a press card ?

 

And now you were involved in social care ?

 

Thats three different jobs...  Unless you were a Teacher of Journalism in a care home !!!
