StreetCowboy Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Don't knock it.... I seem to remember that some of the best sleep I ever had was in statistics lectures.... 2nd best was definitely reading theblether's l o o o o n g post. lol An enjoyable thread, with people playing nicely.... ..... I even caught myself liking two of Pseudolus's posts Nothing wrong with that old chap - something in the air today obviously. Firstly, I put up a list that included Samaramadingdong or what ever his name is and subnuromantic saying they get my goat, and Nek Minit, they are clicking like on things I say, and post their agreement, and low and behold, I find a post or two from them which is passable as well. I can't see any nastiness in this thread at all. Love is in the air I guess. I think that's because half the posts have been expunged. I was planning a holiday anyway...

theblether Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 (edited) Aha......a common misconception. Remember the like system only started in January so members such as Transam have a huge volume of posts that were in place before the like system was introduced....which leads me to me favourite saying..... " There are three kinds of lies, lies, damned lies and statistics". So as you were saying about likes???? and the "likes" or greens or whatever they were called from the previous system were carried over. otherwise how would you explain that TA is carrying over likes from 2010? http://www.thaivisa....ost__p__3733167 Yes I'm aware of that, just as you are aware of the controversy surrounding the green system, I have no doubt you vented your opinion on the matter under one of your previous incarnations on Thaivisa. Anyway, do you intend to ever add positive content to the forum or are you content to miserably snipe from the sidelines? But then, how are you aware of that controversy of the previous rating system and the incarnations of other members, since it was also looong before you signed up ? ( under your current username that is) That will be because I am extraordinarily intelligent, insightful......and hansum. Oh, possibly helped by the fact that I read all the threads commenting about the launch of the Like system when it was announced in January......during which I learned about the previous system and how it folded due to abuse by certain individuals. I'm good at reading topics you know ps.......I'm also very charismatic and effervescent too. Just sayin' .

No it didn't.......over to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
