lol yea, something like that….0 -
If MFP would just add a thumbs up and a thumbs down flag, it would solve a lot of problems. This would allow for opinions to be expressed without all the bothersome typing. After a set number of thumbs down flags - the post would disappear.

I agree indicators of support would help with the abuse of the abuse flags. I'm less inclined to make posts disappear. I think sunlight is the best disinfectant - allowing bad ideas to hide in the darkness just lets them fester like mildew. Most important is allowng enough vigorous debate where myths and misconceptions can be taken head on and debunked.0 -

Wheres the "I don't like OP and every time I see his/her name I want to kill puppies like that scene in American Psycho, so I will just simply report him/her in hopes that (s)he disappears from this site that I have built my identity around because MFP is Love, MFP is live"?
This post makes my pants tight in the groinal region.0 -

Thank you, that was what I was going for with this thread besides the lolz. Too often now on the threads good advice from knowledgeable people are lost because the concepts are often new and unfathomable to people that are either ignorant or prescribe to a certain dietary preference or fad unwilling to budge from what they believe to be true. Vigorous debates were common on here and more often than not solid advice would be the end result, not unlike a diamond being formed from immense pressure.
People just seem to dislike being challenged and would rather hit that flag icon than actually consider there might be better and more effective alternatives.
Well said!

The "disappear" part was in jest. Probably as are all the comments in this thread.

Amazing OP and this post ... Damn. Mfp high quality.0 -
Would also like to add the flag:
What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
Because sometimes it's worth quoting Billy Madison.
