i'm not whining barry, and appreciate what you do for the forum.
i dont get why people have thrown their toys out of the pram?the forum has declined a bt recently but those throwing their toys out have helped create the state it currently finds itself in.it declined before and then improved with nothing being changed.
i dont think you need to do anything really.if people want to leave,let them.
they could help balance it up if they dont like what they read by countering the offending posts,rather than sulking or ranting.

And now we can agree and disagree with posts? Looks like there actually is a use for this "Karma" thing that's been under my name on the profile for ages now.
Can we?! I can't see that... |

If there was actually an agree button (I reckon Barry made it up), I'd be whacking it furiously right now. Spot on arriba. It's been like "time of the month morning" at the WI round here recently |

I appreciate that you appreciate it, but I don't really do anything!  I agree a great deal with your post, I'll remove you from my ignore list.  What I might do, or will experiment with, while the bit is between my teeth, is maybe adding some sort of agreement to posts, so as opposed to repping a member, people can agree with a post (but not disagree). I removed it in part due to your comments, because you're right it's not a popularity contest, it's also ugly and irritates my aesthetic genes, which in turn means I resort to self-abuse. |

If everybody chooses to ignore everybody else does the forum implode on itself?

What button? The one that on mine is changed and is shown in the screenshot below? [url width=225 height=89]http://thetownend.com/images/Screenshot.png[/url] ^^^ Barry what does this red button in the top left do?

The button is the screen shot above? It's like Dave says, it's works as a direct link to a post and is the icon used for a thread. |

I understand how to use the ignore button not to see certain peoples post, but I cant find out how you see how many are ignoring my posts, sorry to be stupid but I am getting on a bit.
