what hellbent and what change,cuz I don't back down? When I was new here, that's what they said the stars and rank were for, the purpose I stated. What exactly is the purpose then?
Why have a certain numbers for different things then, like the avatars? Just curious..
and I didn't know being polite and respectful to people was a change either.
My mistake, but then look at your response to the guy that stuck up for me. I guess the guys can't stand it cause I didn't just meekly bow to their opinions. I don't see a mass of people saying I am wrong just the same ones over and over. What have I said that was so wrong, anyway? Why do some resent so much (and so belligerently) that I think ridicule and nastyness should go away. I guess it's fine by you when they mocked me in here, and created another post for the same reason, I didn't see you stand up for me against them for that anyway even if you don't agree with my opinion.
Really I am surprised and disappointed.</STRONG>
You seem to be set on overhauling the way posts and stars are put out. I have never mentioned anything else about the attitudes, the cliques, the attitudes, the rudness.

I had not even read the JvaGuy topic. I didn't even know that one existed.

The guy that tried to stick up for you, did it in a way that was not the best way. His post came off, to me, as more of a public scolding of the members. In a controversal topic, the best way is to be calm and clollected.
