I have just briken the -100 skill point barrier, is it a record?

I have worked hard to wind up all the do-gooder, liberal/lefties on this site and that is all going to be wiped clean when the new Stafford Forum is launched, it's not fair!

I lost a few points, but don't purposefully go round trying to wind people up, I think people just like to cuffy people for no reason at all, just because they can. I'll be glad when the points system is gone.

Indeed, well done.

You might be a bit surprised to hear that not a single one of them came from me. If only i'd known it would become a source of pride i might have joined in. :)

You might want to take a screengrab and save it for posterity; as you say, it won't be around for long. ;)

Why? I don't like it therefore it should go.

Have a cuffy on me :p

Well done you! For myself, I've never paid much attention to these points, however I notice that mine are now at -19! I have to admit it makes me smile. Now I'm noticing them (since the subject has been raised) I laughed out loud when I lost another point today immediately after making a post, because I new it was going to happen (not that my recent posts have been particularly derogatory in any way).

I like to think I'm doing my bit to wind up the do-gooders too, and saying what I think rather than agreeing with everyone else or just making inane remarks as people tend to when they can't form their own opinions.

If the points are being removed that's fine, but it makes no odds to me either way ;)

You see that is/was my issue with them, and why i have never 'cuffied' anyone, not even by accident.

There seemed to be a phase recently of new members being 'cuffied' for no discernible reason whatsoever. I certainly can't think of a reason why anomalyaos should have been so treated for example.

While some may be able to shrug it off, or even take pride in it, others are sure to have felt upset or unwelcome because of it. That is surely not A Good Thing?

Not long to go until the new Forum and Stafford Points get re-set so let's see how high (or low) we can get my total!

All Cuffy points gratefully received!

Seriously? :rolleyes:

This is exactly the train of thought which has made this nation into a such a bunch of pussy footing politically correct emotionally unstable depressive bunch of wimps.

People - grow thicker skin and grow a pair.

Upset by negative Stafford points? boo-f***ing-hoo.

Sorry withnail but I just cannot accept that - if someone is that emotionally unstable then they have much bigger problems than a handful of cuffies.

Yes shoes - everybody should be just like you, and if they aren't they are weak-minded fools.

Ah, the benefits of going to a posh school...

Oi, I went to some posh schools, too - you oik.

One of them was founded, personally, by Henry VIII - as they told us virtually every day.

I seriously cannot fathom how anyone could get upset with negative stafford points - the single most meaningless ranking on the internet.

Posh? Selective, if you don't mind. It was free to attend.

I only used the word 'upset' as it had been used by anomalyaos. Originally i was going to say 'others are sure to have felt upset or more importantly unwelcome because of it', because i do wonder whether it deters people from participating.

I changed the wording for the obvious reason of not wishing to upset people by suggesting that being unwelcome was worse than being upset :P

Can't be too careful with wording these days!
