Please, Sir....

TV is a community.

We are NOT strangers.

Some, here on TV, are like family to me.

In fact, TV, and TV members, are pretty much the only family I have, these days.

It pains me that you imply that I am a "stranger".

Strange, maybe.

Please forgive me if I wasn't clear in my post.

I wasn't 'implying' anything. I was stating it as fact. You are a stranger.

I give your opinion no more weight than I would anyone else's in the crowd of strangers. Perhaps interesting. Perhaps not. It makes no difference to me.
Sorry, but I am not your family, nor do I have any desire to be so.

    I think people moaning about the emojis is hilarious. I say we keep the emojis, but we should see which leftists who posts all the thumbs-down emojis.

    Only positives and question mark. This leaves those who are cowardly and the few trolls to explain themselves, if they can, when they dislike a post. Question mark can have some not understanding, or

At times I get involved with different threads from time to time.

On the odd occasion I'd be up late at night, looking through AN threads. Suddenly I'm getting multiple thumbs down, one after the other, on the same thread. I'd look who's active on the thread, it could suggest who the delinquent member giving me these many thumbs down.

Yesterday, I looked at my history, the particular posts having my multiple comments and many thumbs down. Sure enough, that was person responsible. 😂

This morning, it seems history of my thumbs down received have all been removed, I can't find any prior to yesterday 🤔

I apparently looked through my history before it was erased, and one in particular stood out. As I stated, he/she never posts anything, as his/her history had 1 post in 8 yrs, come Nov.

Along with post receiving multiple 👎 and again, most the same folks. Even stranger, though not really, I looked at the 👎 on @Rockyroad 's history, and surprise surprise, many of the same people who repeatedly give him the 👎 showed up in my history of.

Talk about a we bit of trolling. Strange thing, they 👎 informative post, non opinion post, almost as if the post aren't even read.

Along with many of them, actually post very little themselves. Too funny & sad at the same time. What a life.

I seen the same thing and reported it and no action as of yet, so it seems to be sanctioned. One has to really wonder who/what these ghost are as additional tooler profiles.

Ah...I see now.....but....

Have you read the book:

The Lonely Crowd ......?

I am fairly sure that it would be right up your alley.

Or, have you already read it.....?

The title of this tome might be somewhat misleading.

Also, are you an APE?

If you are, then you are just one more interesting member of my family.

We are like-mined individuals, and individualists, it seems.

We might be the last two left on this Planet of the Apes.

It's official, it's over, I'm not using Emojis anymore, they take up too much time, unless someone agrees to pay my going rate.

What else could he have disagreed with, the posters avatar or profile?

Have you not read the book, " @fredwiggy 's thoughts "? You see all kinds of weird theories within.

I agree but reality is different. Cowards need a group and look what they did during Covid. This forum during Covid had names attached to emojis and a group just shut down all discussion in regards to Covid. They got a rush out of abusing all dissenting opinions.

I do like the names though for now:)

I think that you may need a refresher course in Self Awareness. Yesterday you excoriated groups and group think, whilst at the same time being part of a group that tried to shut down discussion (between myself and @fredwiggy in one case). Prior to this, you were exceedingly rude to another member; @FolkGuitar if I remember correctly), whilst at the same time trying to lecture me about a far more politely worded discussion with a member of your group. Of course now you may claim that you aren't a member of any group, even though you used the term we on a number of occasions.

As I wrote yesterday...my suggestion is that get your own house in order before you start criticising others.

P.S. Your group is really not that impressive. 😊

Yawn. I asked you why you enjoy abusing Freddy. I didn't try to shut you down and your insecurities are obvious to everybody but you.

I'll create a separate reply, as you obviously edited your initially totally vacuous post and added even more sad nonsense.

Let's look at what you added...

Abuse is something that you choose to imagine. Show me any line that might constitute abuse in anything that I wrote concerning him yesterday.

Would you like me to highlight how you replied to @FolkGuitar ? Then we can evaluate what is abuse and what is discussion.

You ended the post with "I didn't try to shut you down and your insecurities are obvious to everybody but you."

Another patent untruth. You did try and furthermore, more evidence of your group think with the "everybody but you"

Face it, you are just one of the herd, even when you try to isolate yourself. Birds of a feather, flock together.

Do I really seem insecure to you? 😊

Obviously 😊 Currently I am attempting to demonstrate your propensity for psychological projection. A few of our esteemed members have such a tendency, IMHO.

You are insecure and it is entertaining. Please reply - I'm enjoying your desperation which isn't nice of me but oh well.

Of course, like the rest of your rage posts, you have no evidence to back up your assertion. Weak and pathetic 😊

"Ooohh...they shut me down during COVID" 🤣

It seems that we are both entertained. Let us continue 😊

The problem with reporting it is they will get fed up with it again and reverse the decision, so report sparingly, maybe better to make a post to that person and or block them

Why can’t the two of you cool your jets already.

Anyway, it’s quite peculiar that there’s 114 votes at this point which is lob-sided and doesn’t jibe with the what is actually posted by text here which is what is actually valid.

That person never makes any posts, except for one 8 years ago. It’s just a tool bogus profile.

Your language towards @FolkGuitar yesterday certainly provided some evidence for that. Of course you can choose to otherwise lie to yourself .

Your 'boo-hoo-ing' with regard to a "group shutting you down" during COVID and your subsequent group allusions here, demonstrate your own deep insecurities. Your words and actions are out of sync, you have no basis for any claim of being grounded. Your writing of insecurity is simply you projecting. You cannot demonstrate insecurity in me.

Now...let's see if you can rise above the herd. I think not.

Why don't you simply try mind your own business and instead start a conversation of your own? Ignore the posts that don't interest you. Good idea?

Why does anyone give a damn what complete strangers on the Internet think about their comments? And it appears that some folks get really worked up about it, too!

Weird and strange.

Normal folks understand that no one is going to agree with them all the time and they’re not going to agree with anyone all the time.

It's definitely a mental weakness to become negatively affected by such things.

Thats because trolling is only against the rules for some people, same with people threatening harm to others, some posters get called out by name in the removal, many more just get removed with nothing said.

Does that mean that no one should ever have a disagreement ever again? No more discussion?

Use your brain. Now we are in a discussion. See how it works?

Disagreement is normal. If it's weird and strange in your mind, then it's you who is weird and strange.

Funny you say that, most of the members comments are saying it's the mentally ill who relentlessly abuse their emoji privileges.

I've seen on a few occasions where members have lost their right to use their emoji's because of abuse.
