Of course they do work as a quick way to post that ad that's in your sig if you're a provider (and perhaps skirt the rules).

And thank you kind sir for pointing out that providers might perhaps skirt rules and use this advertising board as a means to advertise in whatever way they might or not. you picked up on that rather quickly! A+

As for all ya'll +1 offenders.....shame on you! He's got a freakin' tablet and ya'll are causing him to scroll....let's cut him some slack, will ya please?

Thank you OP for posting such a thought provoking thread.....I always appreciate the chance to advertise......

I'm on my phone and have to scroll all the time.

Obviously, some folks will get their panties in a bunch over anything.

Correct me if I'm wrong. The reason for your post is that YOUR panties were in a bunch. We all felt it was our duty to let you know that you needed to get over yourself.

I agree that rep systems are good for that but I feel the negatives outweigh any gain a rep system would bring to eccie.

Then again the board I modded on was devoted to mainly males obsessed with pay to play fantasy.....nope this place isn't like that at all. Maybe it would do better here, but I seriously doubt it.

If each user can only vote on other users once with the option to change their vote later and votes staying anonymous, then I can see it working the way it was intended. That would certainly cut the drama at least.
