If you are so tired of me, you could, first, stop sending me PMs. Though I do not answer them, they took unnecessarily some place on Ken's servers and it's bad for your stomach ulcer to write those.

Where can I look up the Rules for the use of the Red Arrow? They aren't mentioned in the Forum Rules.

I used every one of my red votes this morning on a single user.  I didn't even read their posts, I just handed out a red every time I saw one of their posts.

This may at first seem like an abuse of the voting system and I understand those red votes may be removed or reversed.  I also understand that it may have a negative effect on my own reputation score and/or even effect my ability to rate others.

Here's my justification.  This user over the years has chased away a large number of forum members.  His behavior towards others is shameful and continues on a regular basis.  While it's true that this member has contributed much towards "the community" over the years, it is far outweighed, and even negated in my mind, by his behavior.  If such a thing were possible, I'd glad agree to have every one of his contributions removed from the database if only he'd go with them.  Maybe we could get some of the old members to return to fill in the gaps.

Based on those reasons, I feel that my negative feedback actually is warranted and I feel the red votes should stand.  The fact that this user is allowed to be here is offensive to me that's my reason for handing out the red votes.  I plan to continue this protest until Ken clarifies that I'm violating the spirit of the voting system or my voting privileges are revoked.

Forum moderators: Before you delete my post, please check my posting history.  You'll see that I'm not one to post negative comments.  I tend to stay out of the nasty threads and don't tend to contribute to the bashing that goes on around here.  I hope you won't see this as just another abusive post to be censored.  I wouldn't have spoken up except that I believe this situation has gotten too far out of hand.

The problem I see with this is if the Moderators were using the red arrows to identify posts to review, then you're clogging up the works, slowing down the review of posts that legitimately are red arrowed.

The only function now is to alert the moderators.

And even that does not seem to work. Both spam threads about iPhone sellings have been up for 3 days now and I bet they received plenty of red arrows.
