Don't worry guys, Ken already said he would take appropriate action if necessary.

By the way I can not imagine how anyone could abuse the system, because no one really knows what impact his/her negative votes might have, only Ken does.

I'm pretty sure, that Ken or Gerri do not have the resources to evaluate every single negative vote.

Single negative votes have less (or maybe non if somebody abuses the system regularly) impact on a user's reputation, only multiple ones do and those are easier to spot.

The threat wasn't in your last posting, it was clearly brought out in the postings you wisely didn't show.

I send you the negative note.

I didn't explain it on the forum for one reason : I already wrote I wouldn't post anymore in those forums, since Skip made all he could for that. I'll not change my mind as he did.

Why did I quit : Skip compared me with the régime of Vichy. If you do not know exactly what that means, this régime was connected with nazis during WW2, and sent thousands of people to gas chambers. I think that "fascist bastard" is a light insult face to "régime of Vichy".

When some german posters (not YOU...) asked Skip to apologize , he just said it was what he meant...  and I even got recently bad marks when I remembered that on the forum.

So I gave a good mark for MrBurns, and a bad for you... I think you support the wrong man.

PS : I don't mind if you mention that in the forum. I hope you'll be honest enough to tell what you think of treating somebody of Vichy, nazi or gestapo...

I removed your negative note. But as you knew about Skip, I hardly understand that you can support him. He is the main reason of all the problems of those forums...

Everyone who posts in this thread sending flowers to that nasty guy just seeks positive notes, and a few negatives ones can't be bad

Have a nice day

Before hiding behind my database, I tried to make things improve. I'm not against the rules, I'm against a strict application of them, even when it is out of common sense. I see dvdprofiler dying in France (titles as 300, Fur, Death Proof, Summer Palace,  Spider-man 3 or the last Harry Potter have not been contributed, though two years ago, such titles were contributed the day they were released) and I wanted to alert. Before being called Vichy (and gestapo by Rifter), I was called a whiner dozens of times by Skip for whom I'm the evil since I wanted to "destroy" his database. This is totally ridiculous.

You write 40% of useful posts from him, I hardly remember more than 5 or 6, which means 0.1%. He made fly away many newbies with his sarcasms or even insults.

I had hope he would really quit, though I was used with his blatant lies. As he came back, forums will continue to stink awfully, and I'll certainly not come back...

To be correct it is about 2 pages kissing ass and 4 pages kicking ass!   

EDIT: Not to forget 1 page from people trying to bring forum rules back into minds.

You told me that you don't support Skip, but in this thread that begins to take a correct turn, you are still the one that tries to defend the indefensible. The tone you use is clearly friendly to Skip and those who "kiss his ass", and clearly agressive to the others, from your first post on this thread to the last. That is very offending for all those who suffered from the writings of this nasty man.

As for bringing forum rules in mind, I quoted the part Ken should apply immediately :

"Bannable" offenses include, but are not limited to, the following list of activities.  Users that are banned will be permanently prohibited from posting.  In severe cases, there will be no warnings for first time offenses.  There is no appeal process once banned.

    * Transmitting illegal, patently obscene, hateful, or racially derogatory content

Treating somebody of war criminal is illegal (at least in France), and hateful...

You didn't remind the rules at that time...

PS No red arrow for you that time    but I don't think I was wrong about the reputation system to give three green ones to Chibul...
